Highlights
Pet care experience
Pawsome care, every time!
Proud dog mom and foster dog mom 🤍 my husband and I love helping out our local rescues by fostering as often as we can. I’ve been around dogs my entire life, starting with my first family dog when I was just six years old. Growing up, my family raised a variety of breeds, from a tiny Yorkie to a massive English Mastiff, as well as a lovable Labrador. I’ve always had a deep love for dogs, and over the years, friends and neighbors have trusted me to care for their pets—whether it’s dog sitting, walking, or simply keeping them company while they’re away. One of my proudest achievements is the training my husband and I have done with our own dog, Ziti. We’ve dedicated time to researching and practicing different training methods, successfully teaching her basic obedience commands like sit, stay, lay down, and paw, as well as fun tricks like “between” (where she sits between our legs), “search,” “high ten,” and even “jump.” I believe every dog is capable of learning with the right approach, patience, and consistency. Training methods may vary depending on the dog, but I take pride in working with each one individually to help them build confidence and master new skills. I’m excited to share my knowledge and experience to help your dog thrive!

Ratings and reviews
Nicky was amazing! Kept us updated on our pups while we were out. Took them for a walk and sent us picture updates ?? 10/10 would recommend and rebook
Nikki excels in dog caretaking! She has an unbelievable gift with connecting with any dog. I would highly recommend her to watch your furry friend!
I truly believe Nikki is a great pet caregiver and will take the time to get to know your animal. She is responsible and dedicated - she will always put the pet's needs before her own. I recommend her for dog-walking or dog-sitting specifically, as she's done it on multiple occasions before (for her own pup as well as for family and friends). Overall I know she will take good care of your pet.

Schedule
I am available throughout the week, some evenings throughout the week, as well as on the weekends. I especially enjoy taking our pup out in the mornings during the week and having a family day with my fiance too on the weekends and getting to enjoy the beautiful outdoors. It would truly make myself and Ziti (our dog) so happy to be able to share that experience!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I crate train my dog at my house as she has been crate trained since she was little. I designate certain blankets, areas on the couch, and places throughout the house that our dog is allowed on and make sure that I clarify if there is a similar standard in a client’s home.

A typical day
I love to take pups to the park right across the street to play some fun games of fetch as well as get all the sniffs in around the park! There is so much open space for your pup to run around that they’ll definitely be able to get an amazing day of exercise in!

- Please let me know if your dog has any behavior issues that I should be aware of. If your dog is unfriendly with other dogs, people, etc please let me know that information right away. I would appreciate also knowing if your dog has any issues with potty training, crate training, separation anxiety, or any other issues that would need to be addressed beforehand. Thank you!
