Caring for Pets Like My Own
I’m currently studying at a grooming school, where I’m learning professional dog and cat grooming, along with pet First Aid and CPR. This training gives me a deeper understanding of animal behaviour, safe handling, and health awareness, allowing me to provide a higher level of care and attention to every pet. I have hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I currently have my own 2y.o. cat, so I understand daily routines, feeding, and paying attention to a pet’s behaviour and needs. I’ve also lived with dogs before and regularly helped my housemates by walking them and taking care of them whenever needed. In addition, I’ve looked after my friends’ dogs and cats, including pet sitting and walks. I’m comfortable with different personalities and always make sure pets feel safe, calm, and well cared for. I’m attentive, patient, and treat every pet as if they were my own - with lots of love and cuddles. Taking clients around my neighbourhood- Downtown Vancouver and West End. Would love to bring your dog on a walk to Stanley park or a beach walk.

Safety, trust & environment
I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding routines, walk schedules, and any specific needs or preferences. In a client’s home, I respect the space and try to keep the pet’s routine as consistent as possible so they feel secure. I give them attention, playtime, and companionship, while also paying close attention to their behavior and well-being. Safety is very important to me — I make sure pets are always supervised during walks, kept in secure environments, and never put in risky situations. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive, and I treat every pet as if they were my own.
Ratings and reviews
Nadiia was wonderful! Izzy was trusting and playful with her immediately, and settled down well. She was communicative and let me know when Izzy had a (minor) bout of misbehaving! Will definitely hire again.

Very flexible with last minute changes, and my cat warmed up to her so quickly even though he is usually very shy. Thank you Nadiia!

Nadiia was amazing! She was confortable with Gigi and Gigi loved her! She sent me updates and pictures through the evening and she even taught Gigi new tricks!

Nadia was great with Maya, followed all of the instructions I provided, and sent regular updates and photos! Maya was also a big fan of her!

Nadia arrived in good time to take over my home and provide attention to my dog. As an older dog, he is set in his ways and Nadia was sympathetic to those needs. I highly recommend Nadia.

Nadiia was great with M very patient when he was being a little stubborn. Very communicative with us and M was relaxed.
