Pet care experience

Snuggles, Treats & Tail‑Wags

I’ve cared for a wide range of pets, including two energetic huskies, two sweet cats, and one lovable pug, and I bring the same patience and attention to every animal I meet. I’m also a proud cat mom to a domestic short hair tabby who I supported through her pregnancy and helped deliver and raise five healthy kittens, giving me hands‑on experience with newborn care, socialization, and creating a safe, calm environment. Whether your pet needs playtime, structure, or gentle reassurance, I provide reliable, loving care tailored to their unique personality.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, structured space that’s designed with their comfort in mind. I’m currently raising four kittens and their mama tabby, who enjoy a safe playpen and a dedicated cat corner filled with food, toys, cozy bedding, and a kitten‑sized scratching post. This setup keeps everyone enriched, secure, and well‑supervised. Any pet who stays with me becomes part of this gentle routine—getting plenty of attention, playtime, and a peaceful environment where they can relax and feel right at home.

I had a trip with planned right after one of my furbabies was very sick and hospitalized for several days with a bladder stone. Even though he was on the mend, I was nervous about leaving. Nakaya was amazing about checking on him, sending me updates every day and being extra diligent about watching food intake, litter box habits and unusual behavior. She gave me peace of mind that my baby was safe and healthy. When I had another multi-week trip planned, she was my first call! She was attentive, made sure my kitties weren’t too lonely, spent extra snuggle time, managed litter box duties and automatic feeder refills! She even went out of her way to make friends with my skittish kitty who hides from everyone, ensuring she was safe and well while I was away! I wholeheartedly recommend Nakaya to take care of your fur baby!

Nakaya has dog sat my two huskies and two cats on multiple locations. She was very prompt on an all communication, sent me photos throughout my trips with updates and had no difficulties with my two big energetic dogs. She was always reliable and easy to trust. I will definately be using her again!

I highly recommend Nakaya! She has cared for our dog and cat multiple times, and every experience has been wonderful. Knowing our pets are in such caring and reliable hands gives us complete peace of mind whenever we’re away. She is incredibly dependable, communicates consistently, and always sends thoughtful updates and photos, which means so much while we’re traveling. It’s obvious she genuinely cares about the animals she watches and treats them like they’re her own. Our pets are always happy, well cared for, and comfortable when we return home. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy, responsive, compassionate, and truly loves animals, I would absolutely recommend Nakaya. We will continue booking with her anytime we need pet care!

Schedule

As a full‑time Registered Behavior Technician supporting autistic tiny humans throughout the week, my days are structured, purposeful, and deeply rewarding. I’m also a dedicated mommy to an autistic tiny human of my own, which means my home life is just as full of care, patience, and routine. Because of this balance, I’m mostly available on weekends, when I can give my full attention to the pets I care for—offering a calm, reliable, and loving environment without rushing or distractions.

Please let me know the following about your fur baby before care is provided: their daily routine such as feeding times and walk schedules, any dietary needs or restrictions, and important health information like medications or allergies. It’s also helpful to understand their behavioral traits, the commands they respond to, and your emergency contacts including vet details. Lastly, please share any comfort items they love and the house rules you’d like me to follow, so I can provide consistent and reassuring care.
