Your Pup is My Role Model
Pet care experience
Hi! I'm Nandi. Having been bit when very young, I grew up with both a deep curiosity and a paralyzing fear of dogs. But each pup I've met since then has just completely melted my heart and healed that old fear. The dogs in my life have been so expressive, generous, and hilarious. Honestly, I've made an effort to be more like them. I strive to approach each pup I meet with the same eager openness and boundless affection that they have shown me. I love the process of getting to know pups and building a fun and trusting relationship. I'm a grad student in occupational therapy and appreciate the study breaks our canine pals provide. Pets aren't allowed where I live, so I make the most of each opportunity to love on your pups.
Reviews
I have three dogs and recently got longer hours at work. It’s a great feeling knowing even while at work my pups are getting the love, attention, and exercise they need ! I would completely recommend this website and expecially Nandi!
Nandi is kind, patient, and attentive. He cares for animals like they are his dear friends. He is responsive to their energy - if they want to play, he wants to play; if they want to be soothed, he is soothing. Nandi is punctual and communicative. He understands the responsibility that comes with taking care of someone's treasured furry friend and takes full ownership of that role.

Information Nandikesha J. would like to know about your pet
I have more experience with small to medium sized dogs, but I really just love them all. I will always have an extra special soft spot in my heart for min pins though, because Sampson Thunder was the first pup to show me that I needn't be afraid. And they are absolutely ridiculous in all the best ways. WHO'S A BOUNCY BOY?! I've found that the best way to know about a dog is from the pup him or herself. Knowing a bit about the dog's home environment helps and it's nice to have some clues about favorite play activities and their general disposition when meeting new people and new dogs, but these always have a funny way of revealing themselves too.
A typical day
We will party like it's 1999. We will meditate like it's the cusp of the 11th century in North India. We'll hit the beach or the trail (or the sensory banquet of the sidewalk) and take in all the wondrous sights and smells! We'll snuggle. Of course we will snuggle.
