Nikita is an amazing pet sitter! She's been great at medicating one of our cats and getting our two scared boys to warm up to her and be social. We've hired Nikita for long trips and short weekend trips over the past year and it gives us such a peace of mind to know she is caring for our cats while we travel. I highly recommend Nikita for pet sitting. You will receive the cutest photos, too!

Nikita is amazing with our three cats. One needs daily medication, one is a scaredy cat, and the third is skeptical of strangers. All three cats come out when she visits and the scaredy cat even purrs loudly, which is a big deal. We feel very comfortable and confident leaving our cats in Nikita's care. She's awesome!

Nikita is the cat whisperer! She watches our three cats every time we travel, and it really helps us relax knowing they love her! The cats are always happy to see Nikita. And she takes time to play with them & give them snuggles. She is very experienced with cats, so Nikita is great with medicating them & following a specific diet. She medicated one of our cats daily & it really allowed us to relax on vacation knowing our cats are in good hands. I definitely recommend Nikita to watch your fur babies!

Nikita did a wonderful job dropping in to take care of our cat Sammy while we were away. We came home to a very happy and well-cared for cat and will definitely book with her again. Thanks Nikita!

Safety, trust & environment

I am very patient with your pet. In the past I have taken care of very shy animals and I give them their space but always make sure to talk to them while I'm in their home. I will just tell them about my day or read a book out loud, just so they know the sound of my voice. If your pet is more social and active I will happily play with their favorite toy. I always bring with me a laser pointer that I keep charged in my car. I love watching them zoom around :)

Information Nikita C. would like to know about your pet

Do they have any body part that they do not like to be pet/rubbed? Do they have a favorite toy? Does your pet like to try to escape (only asking from experience)? What are their favorite treats? For emergency: a vet's number and/or friend or family member.

A typical day

I keep a ~rechargeable~ laser pointer in my car for every occasion! I always love to know their favorite toy and snack. Do they enjoy some outside/porch time? I can provide that too!
