Highlights
Pet care experience
Fluff lovin sitter at the ready!
I have regularly lived with and cared for both dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I am a kind but firm caregiver and prioritize tailoring my care to the unique needs of you, your household, and your pets. Details matter! Rely on me to be attentive to the little things. I also understand the importance of trust and clear communication around your pets’ needs, and providing regular updates as needed. I love getting to know the silly little quirks and play habits of pets too! I hope you will allow me the joy of getting to know your pet(s). Lastly, I draw pet portraits - let me know if you would like more information!

Safety, trust & environment
I follow my clients’ lead when it comes to caring for pets at their homes and understanding their preferences for potty care, food schedules, playtime, medication, and other specific needs. I tend to take notes any time I have a question or observe something unusual, and prefer to communicate directly. I am flexible and always open to feedback. I do not take clients’ pets home with me.
Ratings and reviews
Nikki was absolutely lovely, and did a great job taking care of my old dog, Einstein. She was very respectful of his needs and of my home. I will absolutely be hiring her again.
Nikki is the sweetest! Would definitely book her again. Such a calm and warm presence, helps you to trust her right away, and has been especially helpful for our anxious animals. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️
Nicolette has watched my 5 year old tabby cat every time I’ve gone out of town, and I can’t recommend her enough. My cat is usually very shy around new people, but she warmed up to her surprisingly quickly, which says a lot about how gentle and patient Nicolette is with her. What really sets Nicolette apart from other pet sitters is how attentive she is to my pet’s specific needs and habits. She is thorough, asks lots of questions upon meeting you, takes the time to learn their routines and personalities so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away which I have found to be rare. It’s clear that this isn’t just a job for her—it’s something she genuinely cares about and is passionate about. Knowing Nicolette is with my cat gives me complete peace of mind every time I travel 😊
I can’t recommend Nikki enough as a pet sitter! She’s incredibly caring, responsible, and truly loves animals. (She even spends free time creating beautiful paintings of them for friends)! Nikki is the kind of person who treats every pet like her own and always goes the extra mile to make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Any pet would be lucky to spend time with her!

Schedule
Im currently an on-call botanist. I am reliably available most weekends and some weekdays, and regularly update my schedule with my availability. I feed my own cat twice a day, but i have housemates who can attend to his needs if you require ongoing pet supervision throughout the day.
