Pet care experience
Hello! My name is Niki and I live with my Husband John, and our 9 year old pitbull Ansel in Compton. We have a two bedroom house, a closed fenced area, and are close to a few public parks. About this sitter: As an avid dog lover, i know how hard it is to put your dog up in a kennel or a stranger's house. Be at ease, and let me give your dog the VIP treatment in their own home! I am a working professional photographer living in Compton. Whether it is walking your dog, taking them to appointments, or just cuddling with them to give them that extra bit of attention, i will do whatever it takes to keep your fur babies healthy and happy! Why I love dog sitting: I have been around dogs my entire life. As a child, our family always had at least two german shorthaired pointers running around the yard. We would train them to point and retrieve for bird hunting. John and I have also taken care of litters of puppies along with their mother in our home. 10 years ago, i got my first pet of my own, Ansel, who grew from a little puppy to a 100lb baby. he is the light of our life, and he has really turned me into a head-over-heels dog lover! While with rover, i have taken care of dogs from 5lbs to 80lbs; we love dogs of all shapes and sizes! About my yard: we have a small front yard which is fenced, and a sizable backyard which is also completely fenced.
Reviews
Great service, ready when I arrived and left.
Niki took great care of my dog and sent her home clean and happy. She sent me lots of photos of my dog playing with Ansel and was very communicative and responsible.
My Fester stayed at Niki's with their boy, "Anselmo." Leaving dog with a single home, I always worry about the amount of excessive my dog gets. But that didn't look like the issue at Niki's. Fester came home very tired; looked like he played all day with Anselmo. Niki was very flexible and accommodating for my schedule. She also updated pictures of Fester for me to see while I was away. I will definitely go back to Niki next time I travel. I highly recommend this place to you, too! Thank you Niki, and Anselmo!!
I found Niki on the site and she lived in a nearby city so everything looked convenient. When she contacted me back, she genuinely cared about my dog's daily routine and was willing to be flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. My dog, Tagalong, only stayed one night but she was so tired from playing all day long with Niki's dog, Ansel. She was returned to me happy, healthy and most of all played-out ;)
