Experienced, full time dog handler

Pet care experience

I was raised on a farm so I’m no stranger to animals and no stranger to hard work. I’ve had dogs my whole life – in fact, my parents used to joke that I was practically raised by them! It was always my responsibility to take care of our 4 dogs, from the mini Dachshund to the giant Great Pyrenees. Professionally, I have been a pet sitter since I was 14 years old, so I have experience with many different kinds of dogs. This means I can get along with most personality types – even the more difficult ones! Currently, I work full time at a busy doggy daycare and part time as a dog trainer assistant. In addition, I am studying to be a dog trainer through Animal Behaviour College. I am also certified in Pet First Aid & CPR. For me, animal care is not just a hobby, but it is my career and my lifelong passion. I am a qualified and experienced dog handler, but more than anything I just love dogs and spending time with them is my favorite thing in the world! Plus, I’m a dancer, so I’m very fit and active; I can keep up with even the most rambunctious pups! Let me be your dog’s new best friend!

We love working with Nelia! She is the most wonderful person with our animals and our house. We booked and rebooked and rebooked...and when she returns we'll sign up again! Highly recommended.

Nelia is amazing! We had her stay in home with our two dogs Tator and Brooklyn for 8 nights. She kept in contact, sent photos, and put us at ease while out of town. When we came back, both dogs were so happy and relaxed! Our home was clean and even water bowls full! :) Nelia is great with the dogs - during our meet and greet they immediately took to her. She knows her stuff with training and handling dogs too, especially big dogs! We will absolutely work with her again!

Nelia was just great. We are so grateful she was able to stay with our pupa over the holidays. Couldn't ask for a better sitter.
