I work remotely full-time, which allows me to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. Your pet rarely won’t be left alone for long, and I can easily keep up with their normal routine. I also have a friendly Golden Retriever who loves meeting new dogs, so your pup will always have a built-in playmate. He’s great with both big and small dogs, so pups of all sizes are welcome here.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a whole open room just for your pup to relax, eat, and play filled with comfy beds, lots of toys, and even doggy pool days in the summer! Dogs are free to roam and explore 24/7, and I don’t gate them off from each other, so they can make friends and enjoy company whenever they like. I also have a large crate in the house for owners who prefer their pup to have one while I’m away. It’s rarely used (only if requested) so don’t worry, your dog won’t be confined unless that’s what you want. I stick to your pup’s routines and rules (feeding, potty breaks, medications) and I’m happy to send plenty of photos and updates so you can see all the fun they’re having while you’re away.

Information Nhu ‘Nikki’ L. would like to know about your pet

To give your pup the best care, it’s helpful to know a few things ahead of time, so please let me know about anything that's not listed on their profile. To make things easier for you, I have dog beds, toys, blankets, feeding bowls, wipes, and waste bags so you don’t have to pack too much! Please still bring their leash, food, medications, or favorite toys/items.

A typical day

Mornings start with potty breaks, breakfast, and a little playtime to get the wiggles out. During the day, pups can roam freely, snuggle on cozy beds/couches, or play with toys. In the summer, we sometimes cool off with doggy pool time! Evenings are for walks, snacks, and winding down so your pup is calm and happy for bedtime.

Pet care experience

I genuinely care for every pet like they’re my own. I’m patient, attentive, and great at picking up on each animal’s unique personality and needs. I have experience with both energetic young pets who need structure and play, as well as senior pets who need a gentler pace, extra comfort, and lots of reassurance. I’m reliable with routines, medications, feeding schedules, and potty breaks, and I always make sure your fur baby feels safe, loved, and entertained while you’re away. To make sure every pet has a safe and comfortable stay, I ask that owners please review a few guidelines: • Pets must be friendly with people and other dogs • Please provide food, leash, and any medications needed during the stay • Let me know about any behavioral quirks, anxiety, or special needs in advance • Pets should be house-trained or comfortable with a routine potty schedule My goal is to create a safe and happy environment for every dog that stays with me.

I LOVED NIKKI!!! She sent me lots of updates about my fur babies and I can tell they absolutely loved her. I mean no complaints whatsoever, I trusted her the moment I met her. I have her booked again for later this month and my babies will be with her for longer this time and I feel so beyond comfortable and confident that they’ll be okay. Thank you Nikki for working with me and my fur babies. BOOK WITH NIKKI!!

Nikki is an excellent caretaker who treats our beloved pups with so much compassion. She communicates wonderfully and keeps us updated consistently. We would absolutely trust her to care for them again!

Nikki was great with my dog, Asher! She was really attentive to his medical needs and made sure he was well taken care of the whole time. Her communication was also really good. She kept me updated and was easy to reach, which I really appreciated. She even sent me videos of some of his stay with her! (Normally I just get pics but she went ABOVE AND BEYOND) Overall it was such a smooth experience and I felt comfortable knowing Asher was in good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!
