Information Nermina K. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet is prone to escaping, reactivity or special needs! I have no preference and have experience in all fields. I am open to all!

A typical day

I love keeping pets happy and engaged with activities tailored to their personality and energy level. For dogs, this might include walks, fetch, tug-of-war, training games, or simply snuggles and cuddles. For cats, I focus on interactive play with toys, laser pointers, feather wands, and plenty of gentle petting and lap time. I also love introducing enrichment activities like puzzle feeders or scent games to keep their minds active and spirits high. Every visit is about making sure pets feel loved, stimulated, and having fun!

Pet care experience

I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 20 years of experience as a devoted pet owner, and I’ve been a trusted Rover sitter for 3+ years. I understand that every pet is unique, with their own personality, quirks, and needs, and I treat each one like family. Whether your furry friend needs walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or even medication administration, I provide care that’s loving, reliable, and stress-free. I pride myself on keeping pets happy, healthy, and safe while sending regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. With me, your pets aren’t just looked after—they’re loved, understood, and spoiled a little (or a lot!) every day. I am available for every major holiday as well! Check out my gallery to see the wonderful animals I’ve met along the way🐾 Let’s make sure your pets feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away! 🐶🐱💛

Great pet sitter! Super responsive, respectful, and goes above and beyond. She gave us peace of mind, knowing she will take great care of our cat, while we were away. Thank you!

Nermina is a genuinely kind person. She a love of dogs at a level I require in order to leave my own with someone. I usually feel annoying by asking sitters for pictures, etc. but she sent so many I never had to ask even once. Nox had such a good time playing and even helping with the gardening, that he slept the entire day when I got him back. I love Nermina and her beautiful dog, Lavora. She will be my go-to for all future trips. Thank you!

It was my first time using the Rover App, and I was very nervous about finding someone to trust to take care of my fur baby Sasha. I met Nermina for a meet and greet, and instantly felt comfortable with her. She took an incredible care of my cat during my 5 day trip. She was very responsible , showed up on time , and sent me updates and pictures to make me feel less anxious about leaving my baby! I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that my Sasha was in the best hands ! I highly recommend Nermina and will definitely use her services in future!!

Nermina is a star! We always book her when we go away and she always sends the cutest photos. She clearly love cats. Nermina even went out of her way to get us extra litter when we realized we had run out. We will definitely be booking her again in the future.
