Plays with your dogs when you can't

Pet care experience

I love dogs and can't wait to get my own one day (settled for just 2 cats for now) but until then, I'm here to help others take care of their pups and kittens! I have been dog sitting since I was 16 for many friends and family. Now I am working as an a basketball coach and looking for a little extra work. I'm looking for new families in the area that need assistance and I am available in the morning and evenings on weekdays and free most weekends. I love well-behaved high energy dogs that want to play and go for walks but can definitely cuddle up with a couch potato. I'm trustworthy, reliable, and will be patient with your dogs.

Kanika is very welcoming and warm to all animals. She even managed to win over our extremely shy kitten. She is easy-going and very accommodating.

Kanika was a such wonderful dog sitter! She took excellent care of our two standard poodles and sent us daily updates with pics. She was attentive to all our instructions and was very responsive to texts/calls. We would definitely use Kanika again to dog sit, our dogs loved her! Our house was also in perfect shape when we got back from our trip as well. Kanika rocks!

Safety, trust & environment

I try to spend as much time as possible with my pets at home whether it is snuggles or trimming their nails. I want my pets to feel love and know that they can trust me so we have a deeper bond.

Information Kanika C. would like to know about your pet

Is it a high energy dog or a cuddle bug? Is he/she trained? Any anxiety? Are they leash trained? Do they pull on the leash when walking?

A typical day

Will definitely go on walks, play fetch, tug of war, go to the park, dance with your dog. One of my favorite activities is going to the dog park with dogs who love being social with other dogs! I'm open to suggestions!
