Lifetime Animal Lover and Caretaker

Pet care experience

I've been a pet mom and animal caretaker for every kind of animal from fish to pocket pets; to dogs and cats; to horses, donkeys, and chickens. I've taken care of puppies/kittens to senior dogs/cats/equines. I am kind, loving, and patient with animals and believe I am highly intuitive to their needs. I am currently mom to three dogs, a quarter horse, senior mini donkey, and chickens.

We are so lucky to have found Nicki to help care for our dogs. She is very responsible and responsive, and I always know my pets will be well taken care of when they are with her. She did a great job of getting to know our animals when she first met us and them to make sure it was a good fit and that she could cater to their needs as much as possible. One of our dogs has special needs, and Nicki has done a great job working with her. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker.

Nicki is an absolute lifesaver! My dogs, Lily and Teddy, can be a bit of a handful (Lily especially), but Nicki handles both of them with such care and love. From walking them to playing with them, I always know my dogs are in the best hands. Nicki is incredibly responsible, provides helpful feedback and guidance if requested, follows instructions perfectly, and clearly has a passion for dogs (and many other animals). I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and reliable pet caregiver. My pups return from walks happy, tired, and absolutely spoiled – which is exactly what I wanted!

Nicki is the G.O.A.T. when it comes to animals (pun intended)! She has both a practiced and an intuitive approach to animal care, and you will find her hardworking, deeply caring, and super responsible. Your fur babies are treated with loving kindness and respect. I highly recommend Nicki when you need care for your pets.

I have learned everything I know about kindness to animals and providing them with loving care from my mom, Nicki. She is amazing with animals of all kinds - ranging from her past work running a rabbit rescue organization, to our own home “mini farm,” to pet sitting and dog walking. I admire her detail-oriented approach to pet care - she will make sure that your pet has everything he or she needs to thrive! She truly loves animals and will give your pet the very best care he or she deserves.
