Pet Sitting Nicolaus

“Took care of our three cats, watered the garden, cleaned the litter box, and brought in an unexpected package delivery while we were gone. Maia was great communicating as well.”

“Carrington is a wonderful pet sitter! Our pets, even our shy ones, warmed up to her very quickly! She kept them safe, well fed and happy! We will definitely use her again when we need a sitter for our mini zoo!”

“Christina was amazing! She was understanding and patient with my anxious pup, and capable of handling my dog-reactive one. I always worry that my roughhousing, loud dogs will be too intense for people, but Christina's experience proved to be a perfect fit! I would definitely recommend her as a sitter :)”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was around 10 years old, starting with my own family dogs and being responsible for feeding them, letting them out, playing with them, and making sure they were taken care of while I was home. As I got older, I started pet sitting for friends and family and eventually for people I didn’t know personally as well. I’ve also helped my friend Jade with her pet-sitting clients and have watched pets for a previous manager. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, overnight care, and following each pet’s individual routine. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I’ll always treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. I typically work morning shifts and am usually done with work by 12pm at the latest, which gives me plenty of availability throughout the afternoon and evening for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and overnight care. My schedule can vary week to week, but I’m happy to work with you to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need. I know how important it is to trust someone with both your pets and your home. I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you leave for me, including feeding, walks, medications, crate routines, and any household rules. I want your pet to feel as safe and comfortable as possible while you’re away, and I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and love.

About: Bare minimum care for animals is not accepted in my house. I only offer the absolute best I can give for every furry friend. I've owned and cared for almost every category of critter you can come up with (Birds, reptiles, amphibians, small mammals, cats, dogs, etc.!) Almost all my passions revolve around animals and always have, I spend most of my time helping people with their own pets when I'm not caring for mine. I also am starting out in dog training and have two years experience with a few types of canine training. My own dog is an exceptionally trained GSD that's helped this journey. Along with that, I have been helping with rehabilitating and releasing wild animals in need for almost three years. I am very passionate about rescues and almost all my animals are rescued by either shelters, brought to me, or found by me. I hope to build a career in helping people and their animals in every way I possibly can ❤ I'm currently gaining experience for dog training and I help with wild animal rehabilitation along with shelter work. I'm free most days of the week since I'm able to choose my working hours. For drop in visits I follow pet owner instructions exactly to ensure every pet has their needs met. I offer the most exceptional care that I possibly can for each animal and am capable of caring for just about any pet. Senior, challenged, puppy, untrained, none are challenging for me. 💕

“Amazing!!”

Potty breaks and dog walk or bike ride for Sparta. Landscaping/yard work or In my workshop until sundown. Dogs eat around 5pm Yard is fenced in back and front. I will be able to provide play areas for little and big dogs separately if needed. Meals are typically mornings 7 to 9 and evenings 5 to7.

“Rebekka was amazing with my cat and dog. I could just tell by the photos she sent us how much they loved having her company. She went above and beyond with everything, especially communication. You can trust her with your fur babies!”

About: I have experience with puppies, beginner obedience training and potty training. Senior dog care, special needs, surgery or vet procedure recovery and care. Active dogs that need lots of engagement and exercise or dogs that just want to hang out and cuddle. I work primarily from home, have a safe and fenced yard. Our home is open with lots to explore or we can provide a safe, quiet space if your pet needs that. I have a safe, fenced yard they can run around in or if they would rather hang out with me, sit in my lap, lay in my bed. I walk multiple times a day and have nature and walking trails around my home. I have a quiet room if your pet needs quiet space or they can run around the house and explore and play with my kids (10 and 12) and hang out with my family.

“Tara is absolutely amazing. I had to be away over night on short notice. She met me the same day explained to her what my pups needed. She is friendly and respectful. Tara took great care of my pups giving them love and attention. I will definitely be using her services going forward. Thank you Tara!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old, helping family, friends, and neighbors with feeding, fresh water, playtime, walks, potty breaks, check-ins, and keeping them company. I’m comfortable helping with daily routines such as giving treats, cleaning up after pets, providing exercise, playing fetch, giving them attention and affection, and making sure they are comfortable and safe in their home. I understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, routine, and needs, and I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel comfortable and secure. I’m patient, responsible, attentive, and able to recognize when a dog may need space, extra attention, or reassurance. I’m currently a part-time college student and looking for a part-time job, so I have flexibility in my schedule for pet care. I’m available for pet sitting, walks, check-ins, and other pet-care needs around my class schedule. I’m happy to communicate with pet parents ahead of time to make sure I can provide reliable, consistent, and loving care for their pets. I have a safe and caring environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. I take pet safety seriously and always follow their normal routines, feeding instructions, medication directions, and exercise needs. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and supervision while making sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for. I’m also respectful of clients’ homes and will treat their pets and belongings with the same care I would want for my own.

“She is so sweet and communicative! I loved the pics and updates and she loves my babies just like I would, and they loved her! I would totally hire her again!”

About: Hello I am currently a volunteer and the animal shelter , I’ve been a volunteer for 10yrs. I have 3 dogs of my own. Ive had dogs since i can remember. I’m working towards being either a dog groomer and working at the animal shelter as an employee. I’m currently working part time , and volunteering. I have open availability to walk your dog Monday -Saturday i can be flexible if need be. Make sure your pet or pets are fed on time. I will provide exercise and make sure they are in a safe environment. I can check in on the pets or pets as often as you want me to.

About: I have plenty of experience with various types of pets such as cats, dogs, rabbits, parrots, and fish. You name it and I can do it 😉 I also have experience administering medications to any of those fur babies above, as long as there is a walk through and I can see how the animal behaves when it is done so I know how to handle the situation. I am enrolled in college which means my schedule changes my semester. It is easiest that I am in home pet sitting if your babies require more attention. If not I am able to drop in mornings, evenings, and some afternoons depending on the circumstances. I am able to feed, water, and clean up after them on a daily basis and work around schedules if there are some issues. If in home care is what you want, I will be in a decent amount because of school and family, but if talked to early enough, we can arrange something to be more consistent 😊 As of right now I own 1 cat, 1 sun conure, 2 holland lops, and a doberman, and many more family pets as well. So I am very comfortable being around animals, but because I have so many in my own home, I am not able to offer in home care at my house, but more than open to in any clients home. Throughout my whole life, I have been surrounded by many types of animals and grew up learning how to take care of them. From cats to dogs, to parrots, bunnies, and family friends chickens, reptiles (no spiders please 😬) I am more than open to learning even more if needed! Schedules feedings and potty breaks, play time, cuddles, all available ☺️

I treat every dog as if they were my own, providing the attention, affection, and care they deserve. I am currently a substitute teacher, so I control my own schedule! I continuously care for my own animals: 4 dogs, 1 cat, 2 birds, 8 chickens, and one lizard. I have grown up with animals my entire life! I am well versed in dog and cat behavior and am able to tell when they are uncomfortable. I do my best to gain their trust if they are more shy individuals, and by the end of it we become best friends. Wherever I go I make friends with the animals around me!

About: I have always had dogs as a part of my family. As a pet owner myself I understand the need of needing someone reliable to watch my boys when I've been away, on business trips or have had to take a vacation in which they were unfortunately not been able to join me. I am able to offer a safe and reliable place to keep your beloved family members when you are unable to have them with you. I own my own home and have a huge backyard so your pets are able to have room to run and play. I also have two kids that are both HUGE animal lovers so your pup will be spoiled. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family member(s)!

About: There hasn’t been a time in my life when I didn’t have an animal by my side. I have extensive, hands-on experience owning, fostering, sitting, and walking all kinds of animals. I truly understand that every pet has a unique personality and set of needs, and I pride myself on stepping in to provide seamless, consistent care—picking up exactly where you left off. Whether your pet needs high-energy play, strict medical/routine management, or just gentle, attentive companionship, I am here to provide peace of mind. Whatever you and your animals need, I'm your girl! I work full-time providing home care for adults with mental health and developmental disabilities. Because my shifts can be non-traditional, clear communication is my absolute priority to ensure your pet's schedule is perfectly maintained. I keep my Rover calendar strictly updated with my work hours so you always know my exact availability before booking. If an 8-hour shift overlaps with your needed care times, we will discuss a seamless game plan beforehand to ensure your pet is fully looked after. Outside of my shift hours, I put focus on pet care. My background makes me highly routine-oriented, meaning I am incredibly reliable when it comes to early morning check-ins, evening walks, or overnight sitting blocks. I believe every pet deserves the perfect fit. If my work schedule ever conflicts with what your pet needs, I will be completely transparent upfront so you can find the best match for them. If we are a match, you can count on absolute reliability, consistent updates, and a dedicated sitter who treats your schedule—and your pet—with total respect! Whether I am caring for your pet in the comfort of your own home or hosting them with me, safety and open communication are my absolute top priorities. I treat your home and your pets with the utmost respect, ensuring a secure, low-stress environment. I strictly follow your household rules, feeding schedules, and medication timelines. Keeping their environment consistent prevents anxiety while you are away.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life—from growing up with family pets to caring for my own as an adult—giving me years of hands-on experience and a deep understanding of their needs, behavior, and personalities. I’m a true dog-person and absolutely love being around them—they bring so much joy and companionship to everyday life. Sadly, I’ve had two of my own dogs pass away after living long, happy lives, but through that, I’ve gained valuable experience in providing the special care and attention older dogs often need. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely love. 💞 First time using Rover? Use this link before you book for $20.00 off: https://www.rover.com/sit/rubyb72826 Furthermore, I’m a Registered Nurse (who stays home full-time with my kids now)… however, I have experience administering medications to pets and will ensure your doggie gets any needed medicine while you’re away. I love caring for humans and pets alike, and would love to walk and/or board your sweet fur-babe while you’re away. As a stay-at-home mom with a lovable Shih Tzu of my own, caring for pets is a natural part of my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day and already spend lots of time walking, playing, and giving attention to my dog—so welcoming your furry friend into our routine comes naturally and with lots of love. At our home, every fur-babe is welcomed like a member of our family. Upon arrival, they’ll be given time to explore and settle in comfortably, at their own pace. I strive to create a warm, stress-free environment filled with cozy nooks, comfy beds, and plenty of playtime in our large back yard. The neighborhood also has a large park I can walk them to for some exercise and extra sunshine. I’ll ensure they have a familiar routine and are given lots of attention, from gentle belly rubs, to snuggles on the couch. I love sending photos and updates to keep you connected! You can rest assured knowing your pet is happy, safe, and surrounded by love while you’re away. Pets can sleep in an enclosed area with blankets and a bed or in a crate, if preferred.

About: I have experience caring for both typical and special needs dogs. My dog who has sadly passed was epileptic and had seizures regularly. My other dog had severe skin issues and allergies. She was regularly medicated and had to be fed a special diet. As a dog owner myself, I am familiar with dog behavior and understanding that there are special cases out there that may require more attention. I am also a plant mom and excellent house guest. My area will always be kept tidy and how you left it when you return. Please feel free to message me with any questions! I am currently in law school (online) and I work as a substitute teacher part time, so I am afforded a balanced schedule so that I can provide you with my services as well. Most weeks and weekends, I have open availability! I want my care of your pets to be as if you never left their side. I am communicative, transparent and intentional as a pet owner and pet sitter. I am an active person who loves to hangout with animals. I enjoy a good movie and a good meal, or a hike.
