Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced Sitter You Can Count On
I’ve been around dogs my whole life, so caring for them comes naturally. I grew up in a dog-loving home and have hands-on experience with all kinds of pups—from cuddly lap dogs to high-energy, hyperactive breeds. I understand dog behavior, know how to keep even the most energetic pups engaged, and I’m patient and gentle with dogs of all ages. Whether your dog needs extra playtime, calming companionship, or a steady routine, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, I always aim to match their usual schedule and routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I take time to learn each dog’s unique needs—whether they’re playful, anxious, energetic, or just love cuddles. I have the energy and experience to keep up with high-activity pups and the patience to care for more laid-back or sensitive dogs. My goal is to provide personalized, loving care that feels just like home.
Ratings and reviews
Responsive, prompt, flexible, and sweet with my two pups.
Nakia did a great job with our dog while we were away. The house was clean when we returned. I just would have liked more communication while we were gone on how Mack was doing.
Nakia M. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.
So responsive and flexible. We love having Nakia take care of our puppy!
Thanks for being a great help :)
Nakia took care of Ivy at the last second and I am very grateful for her. She was attentive of Ivy and her tendencies after only knowing her a short time. Sent me pictures every day!

Schedule
I work part-time, which means I’m available most hours of the day to give your dog the attention they deserve. My flexible schedule allows me to offer consistent care, whether that’s walks, playtime, feedings, or just keeping your pup company. Pet care isn’t just something I fit in—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my day.

- It’s really important for me to know as much as I can about your pet ahead of time so I can give them the best care possible. I like to know things like: •Their daily routine (meals, walks, play, etc.) •Any medical issues, medications, or allergies •How they react to other pets or people •Favorite toys, games, or calming techniques •Crate or potty training habits •Any fears (loud noises or certain triggers) •Commands they know or are working on The more I know, the better I can make them feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away!
