“Tina was amazing staying with my dogs! She’s like an elderly dog whisperer and dealt with an unexpected snow storm and potty accidents with love and care. My dogs were so happy, would book again anytime!”
“Amber was great with my dogs, especially with my senior blind and deaf dog. She was very attending to her special needs. It’s hard to find someone with the skills and patience to care and comfort her when Sundowners kicks in at night. Amber also left the house like you wouldn’t even know she was here. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate her care for my animals.”

“Desiree took such great care of my boy. She followed all directions that was given such as administering eye medication. She took him to get groomed as an added bonus without me asking. She was willing to meet prior to do an introduction which was greatly appreciated. Desiree provided me with pictures and updates during the stay. I will be booking with her again in the future. I think my dog gained a new friend 🧡”

“We had Alex watch our pups during our wedding weekend, and they loved her. Each picture she sent of them they were clearly having a great time, doggy smiles all around. 10/10 would book again.”


About: I’ve spent several years providing reliable, compassionate care for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch, I tailor my approach to each animal’s unique needs. My experience includes daily walks, feeding routines, medication administration, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection to keep pets happy and relaxed while their families are away. I focus on creating a safe, calm environment so every pet feels comfortable, understood, and genuinely cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my weekly rhythm, especially since I work from home three days a week. On those WFH days, I’m able to offer flexible, consistent attention—perfect for pets who enjoy companionship, regular check‑ins, or a steady routine. I build feeding times, walks or play sessions, potty breaks, and general wellness checks around my work blocks, making sure pets get the care and interaction they need throughout the day. On the days I’m in the office, I plan visits intentionally to keep each pet’s routine stable. Whether it’s morning care, midday enrichment, or evening check‑ins, I make sure every pet gets predictable, comforting attention. Because I’m used to balancing a hybrid schedule with pet responsibilities, I’m very organized and reliable about maintaining consistent care all week long. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping their routine, environment, and comfort exactly the way they’re used to. I follow the owner’s instructions closely—feeding schedules, walk times, play preferences, medication needs, and any household rules—so pets feel secure and stress‑free. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, whether they need extra play, quiet companionship, or a slow, gentle approach. I keep the home tidy and respectful, making sure food and water areas stay clean, litter boxes or potty routines are maintained, and any messes are handled right away. I also pay attention to small details like closing gates, locking doors, turning lights on or off as requested, and keeping the home feeling lived‑in and safe. Throughout the stay, I send updates and photos so owners always know how their pets are doing.
“Kristy was absolutely wonderful! From the moment I first contacted her, she was incredibly responsive and communicative. Before my trip, she came to my home to meet my dogs, and I immediately knew she was the perfect fit. My dogs are truly family to me, so finding someone I trust is extremely important. Throughout my time away, Kristy sent daily updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my fur babies were happy and well cared for. It was clear that she genuinely cared about them and treated them as if they were her own. When I returned home, my house was clean and my dogs were relaxed, happy, and obviously very well taken care of. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Kristy to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter! 🐾💕”

About: I have my puppy with Hydrocepilitis. People always ask me to sit with their dogs as they know dogs will be safe and happy with me I do Uber so my time is mine. I want to spend as much time with pets as possible as that's my passion and will make me and the pets happy I just moved to Seymour and would love to spend all my time with fur babies. I would love to lower my Uber and Doordash trips and replace that time with fur babies Being in Seymour, I can do from Appleton to Green Bay and everything in between I have my puppy and cat. I always have my dog and cat on either side of me. I talk to them and pet them constantly. They know they are loved
About: I’ve gained experience working at a dog daycare and boarding facility, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments. My responsibilities included supervising group play, monitoring behavior, assisting with medication administration, feeding, cleaning, handling dogs safely, and using de-escalation techniques when pets became anxious or overstimulated. In addition to my professional experience, I have provided overnight care, drop-in visits, and walks for both dogs and cats. I am committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have experience as a dog attendant at a dog daycare/boarding center! I have cared for both large and small dogs, cats, and fish! I am very flexible with time for your pets, all I ask is for you to let me know at least a day in advance for booking:) I treat every pet as if they were my own. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and responsive throughout every booking. I love sending lots of photos/videos, and leave a report card as well!
“Gracie did a great job! She gave Simba walks and handled his separation anxiety well. She sent pictures and communicated daily. She also left the house as good if not better than when we left. We would use her again.”


About: I have 10+ years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and treat every dog like my own. I have the most experience with hunting breeds and high-energy dogs, but I’ve also cared for small dogs. Since I miss having my own dogs around every day, caring for others’ pets truly fills that void and is something I genuinely love doing. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I have most nights and weekends available. I’m even willing to bring your dog along with me when possible so they have plenty of company and attention. Daytime availability Monday–Friday between 8am–5pm is more limited, but I’m willing to discuss options for check-ins in the Howard/Suamico area. I make sure each pet is well cared for, comfortable, and given plenty of attention while you’re away. Depending on the dog’s needs and your preferences, that can include walks, playtime outside, backyard exercise, or trips to the dog park if allowed. My goal is to keep them active, happy, and on a routine that feels familiar and stress-free.
About: Growing up I've always been surrounded by pets of all sorts; dogs and cats and many others. Currently since I've moved out on my own I have a few of my own furbabies (my three cats Penny & Minx & Cheezeburger) that being said I live in my own home.If you choose me then you are helping me give some love to a furry critter who might need that extra help from a new special friend! I currently work first shift and have oodles of love to give hense why I 3 furbabies of my own haha. Typically you can find me fixing things around my house and with summer around the corner I crave to walk more hense why I think being a dog walker would be a interesting twist on how to spice up my life. Depending on your service that is needed we could further talk about what the expectations are. May it be a walk or feeding or simply to give them the good old belly rubs; just being there will be quite the joy.
About: Animals have always been a central part of my life — from growing up around horses and barn cats to caring for beloved family dogs. I have over 30 years of equine experience and have worked in a veterinary clinic as a vet assistant, which means I’m confident providing basic first aid, administering medications, and making sure your dog is safe, healthy, and happy. I have experience working as a vet tech and also worked as zookeeper at the NEW Zoo for a while. Today, I share my home with Luna, our fun-loving dog, and carry with me the experience of caring for our cherished golden doodle for 14 wonderful years. I live on a peaceful horse property with 5 acres of land (there is a safe fenced-in area for dogs away from the horses) where your dog will have plenty of space to run, sniff, and explore — or simply relax in the fresh country air. My goal is to make every dog feel like they’re part of the family, because to me, they truly are. I currently work from home so I am always available to love your pet and take care of their needs! I love taking care of dogs! Your dog will love my 5 acres of open land, plus a fenced yard and secure playpen for safe play. I also have three gentle, dog-friendly horses who keep the atmosphere calm and welcoming. I do have three cats, but they are barn cats and when they see a new dog, they are very, very good at hiding out. I live on a street that is tucked away from the busy road . Inside my house it is very pet friendly and I do have a nice kennel that dogs are able to go in if they need that.
About: My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I have had dogs in my family since I was 10. I have a flexible schedule and work part-time, so I can work with many other time requests and schedules. I can care for your pet on weekends also. I have a very large yard for your dog to play in and I have 2 friendly dogs to keep them company. I can crate your pet also if needed.
“Brendan took great care of my 4 boys (3 large dogs and 1 cat) while my husband and I were away for 2 weeks. We were his first in-home job with Rover. Brendan was very attentive to each of my boys needs and I could tell they really liked him. I would recommend Brendan to care for your pet when you are away.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Nichols
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 332 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Nichols. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Nichols walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Nichols maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Nichols choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Nichols. On Rover:

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
