Pet care experience
I have been passionate about animals my entire life. I grew up with a miniature goldendoodle and currently have a mixed breed sweet girl named Alise, who was adopted from an animal shelter. I would love the opportunity to meet your furry friend! I do not have any breed preference and I have experience with all sizes, even Great Danes and Mastiffs! Each pet in my care will be provided with individual attention, accommodating for special needs when necessary (medication, specific food instruction, etc). I love learning the different personalities of each animal and what their favorite things are (bellyrubs, frisbees, tennis balls, ear scratches). If your dog loves walks and lots of petting and play, then I think we will be the perfect match! I always insist on a Meet & Greet for new clients to ensure everyone is happy and comfortable, including the animals. If you have any questions or need to know more information, please don't hesitate to send me a message. I look forward to meeting you!
Reviews
Once again, Niki and Zach came to my rescue on short notice and did a wonderful job caring for Katrina and Cleo! They provided Rover updates and photos, which was greatly appreciated, and I felt very good leaving my two kitties in such capable, caring hands. I highly recommend Niki for your pet sitting needs!
We're very pleased with Niki & Zach services. Alise was the perfect pal for Keo. The safe and serene environment helped calm his separation anxiety. Keo is looking forward to his next stay. Thank you for everything ❤️
Niki and Zach have been absolutely wonderful to work with. I had several last minute issues come up with my travels and they graciously agreed to accommodate my changes! I feel very confident in their abilities and they showed great compassion and care for Katrina and Cleo. I highly recommend Niki and Zach and look forward to using their pet care services again!
Niki did a wonderful job caring for our dog Rufus while we were away. He is a very temperamental dog and takes a lot of extra focused energy and she did wonderfully! Every update was so detailed and included the necessities as well as the fun things for us to know while we were away from our pooch. Will definitely be requesting Niki's services again!
About Niki S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
My partner Zach and I live on 30 acres, so dogs have plenty of space to run around and explore! We spend a lot of time outside gardening and chopping firewood, so dogs will get lots of fresh air and stimulation. There is also a nice comfy couch in front of the wood stove, making for a perfect cozy nap spot for cats or dogs. At client’s homes, I will follow the provided care instructions and make sure all needs are met, with bonus pets and play of course. I will use my experience to make judgement calls when unplanned things arise, and keep an open communication line with the client. I always provide photos and detailed written updates to the client as well so they stay informed and up to date with their pet’s care.

Information Niki S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special care instructions, needs medication administered, or is recovering from an injury. I also will ask for the name of their vet just in case there was an emergency.
A typical day
When I am caring for dogs, they are always smothered with pets a lots of love! I will always provide walks, time outside, pets, and play to provide stimulation and fun. I like to do short command sessions with dogs to keep them engaged and satisfied (sit, stay, lay down, come) and they always seem to love it!
