Safety, trust & environment

I live in a pet-friendly apartment building that’s designed with comfort and safety in mind. While I don’t have a yard, my building has a dog field on our roof for plenty of running and potty breaks. We also have nearby walking routes for exercise. We also have a dog washing station in the building — perfect for quick clean-ups or baths if needed. Plus, with a front desk receptionist, you can feel confident knowing the building has an added layer of security for drop-offs and pick-ups. I also have a play pen for your dog if needed.

Information Nekisha C. would like to know about your pet

I’d love to know as much as possible about your pet to provide the best care. Please share: • Health needs: Any medications, allergies, or medical conditions. • Behavior details: Temperament around other dogs/people, special quirks, or triggers (e.g., separation anxiety, pulling on leash, etc.). • Routines: Feeding schedule, potty breaks • Comfort items: Favorite toys, bedding, or anything that helps them feel at home. • Grooming needs: Please let me know if your pup will need a bath during their stay — my building has a dog washing station available.

A typical day

A day with me means plenty of fun and activity! We’ll go for walks in the park, play fetch, and enjoy squeaky toys indoors. And of course, belly rubs are always included. I’ll make sure your pup gets the perfect balance of exercise, play, and cuddle time.

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Nekisha! 👋🏽 With 10+ happy client reviews from 2022–2023, I’ve built a trusted reputation on Rover for providing loving, reliable care that gives pet parents peace of mind. Whether it’s a neighborhood walk, an overnight stay, or puppy playtime, I treat every pet with the same attention and love I give my own. I have a 7-year-old Shih Tzu who I’ve raised since she was just 2 months old, so I understand the commitment, patience, and joy that comes with caring for dogs at every stage of life. From daily exercise to cuddles and belly rubs, I make sure every pup feels safe, happy, and cared for. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! You can trust that I’ll treat your “babies” as my own — with plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. 🐾

Nekisha took incredible care of my dachshund Lolli while I was on vacation in Europe for 2 weeks! The rooftop yard is amazing and she sent so many updates / was so attentive to every need. Would absolutely book again in future and highly recommend’

Nekisha is the best! She sent many photos of my cat while I was away for a week, and it was apparent how quickly he felt safe at home. Nekisha is a true animal lover, and I felt so at ease on my trip knowing he was in very loving hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!

Nekisha did an excellent job! She consistently sent updates and made sure my dog was well taken care of. I also appreciated the fact that she took him on lots of walks and provided plenty of play time.

Second time booking with Nekisha and she is nothing short of amazing. Nekisha was an exceptional overnight dog sitter! She took such great care of Mylo and truly treated him like family. Nekisha kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Mylo was happy, comfortable, and clearly well loved the entire stay. We will absolutely be booking with Nekisha again and highly recommend her on Rover! 🐾💛
