Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine since I already spend a lot of time around animals and regularly go on walks and outdoor activities. I’m active, reliable, and flexible with scheduling, and I make sure pets get plenty of exercise, attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m also experienced with maintaining routines, feeding schedules, and making pets feel comfortable and relaxed while their owners are away.

About Nicholas D.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I’m attentive, patient, and experienced with reading animal behavior and making pets feel safe and secure in new environments. Through my volunteer experience with VOKRA as a foster navigator and socializer, I’ve worked with animals that require extra patience, supervision, and trust-building. I’m very aware of roads, other dogs, other animals, and environmental factors during walks and outings, and I always prioritize safe, controlled, and positive experiences for every pet in my care. I follow owner instructions carefully, maintain a clean and calm environment, and treat every pet like family.

Pet care experience
I’ve cared for dogs and animals for over 20 years and have experience with puppies, senior dogs, high-energy breeds, and shy or anxious pets. Along with personal pet care experience, I’ve also volunteered with the VOKRA (Vancouver Orphan Kitten Rescue Association) as a foster navigator and socializer, helping animals become comfortable, confident, and well-adjusted around people. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, supervise, and care for their pets as if they were my own. I’m patient, attentive, active, and genuinely passionate about animals, and I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness while in my care.

Reviews
Maggie was very happy to see Niko and didn't want him to leave.
Maggie had a great afternoon with Niko and was very well cared for.
I know Niko as a fellow regular at Connaught Park. In the time I have spent seeing him at the park, he has always been responsible, attentive to his own dog, and respectful of the other dogs and owners in the space. He has a calm, positive demeanor and is clearly dedicated to his pet’s well-being. I would have no hesitation in recommending him as a reliable and caring person for dog walking services.
Niko is a true animal lover. From volunteering at a local cat rescue to caring for his own pets, his life is dedicated to animals. He is wonderful with my dog and always ensures he comes back home tired and happy. His own dog is very sweet and well behaved.
