About: Hi! I'm someone who genuinely adores animals and treats every pet like family. While I’m new to professional pet sitting, I’ve spent years caring for pets of friends and family. I'm extremely reliable, detail-oriented, and always put your fur baby’s comfort and happiness first. Whether it's walks, snuggles, or sticking to a routine, I’ve got you covered!! You can trust that your pet will be safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away! I recently moved back to the area and have a very open, flexible schedule—perfect for giving your pet the time and attention they deserve! Whether you need daytime drop-ins, evening visits, or weekend care, I can easily work around your needs. Your pet's routine is my priority. I currently offer care in my clients' homes, as I have two cats of my own. When caring for pets in their familiar environment, I make sure to follow their usual routines to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I'm always respectful of my clients' space—clean, trustworthy, and attentive to both their home and their pet's needs. Whether it's feeding, playtime, walks, or just keeping them company, I treat every fur baby like family!!
“Nicole is great. She had an instant connection with our dogs, and she did an excellent job taking care of the cats while we were away. She was very friendly and willing to help with an unexpected glitch, and to deal with the Rover steps when we needed to be gone an extra day. Will definitely try to book her again.”
About: I’ve owned seniors dogs, puppies and everything in between. Jack Russell Terrier to English Mastiff. I’ve also owned cats with diabetes that required insulin daily, neurotic quirky animals we’ve had to adapt to, chickens, goats, sheep, bearded dragons and other reptiles. We are an active family and Hilo goes most places with us. However, there are times he must stay home in his covered kennel or inside depending on weather. We enjoy the rhythm of our daily routines just as much as all of our animals. To keep it humming everyone works in concert sharing the load of responsibilities.

“Hannah is amazing. She spent 2 weeks taking care of Tuk and staying at my house while I was away. I usually catch some attitude from Tuk whenever I come back from being out of town, but this time had been different. He has been purring, calm and happy. Hannah clearly took good care of him while I was away and me and my family are very thankful. Her communication was excellent, she sent us funny pictures and little updates about how the little guy was doing. She also took very good care of our home, left it clean and tidy. This was my families first time using rover and we were nervous about leaving for such a long period of time. If you feel the same way book Hannah if she is available and your fur fam will be loved while you are away. Thanks Hannah!!!”
