Daily dose of exercise and sunshine

Pet care experience

I've raised dogs for 25+ years, along with cats, my horse and small mammals. Starting in the veterinary field since 2011, I'm currently on the path to becoming a registered veterinary technician. I feel confident with a wide range of pet personalities; my own two pups are on opposite ends of the spectrum.

Nikki is a fabulous dog walker and pet sitter! Nikki has walked our dog for over a year now and does great with our energetic puppy! She is very flexible and understanding with schedule changes as well. We have loved working with Nikki! Thank you

Nikki continues to be super reliable and communicative as a dog walker and for our extended drop in stays! Our behaviorally challenged dog loves her walks and visits from Nikki and they’ve become great friends. Very happy we found her and highly recommend!

Nikki is doing a wonderful job helping our behaviorally challenged girl get used to her and working at her pace. She is a great communicator and always shows up on time and is very dependable!

Nikki is great! I always come home to the dogs having full water bowls and she takes excellent care of our two dogs. 10/10 recommend!

Safety, trust & environment

I'm open to most instructions and requests regarding your pet's care, assuming pets and people are safe. I can continue their usual routine of diet and exercise, and have plenty of experience medicating pet's if needed.

Information Nikki A. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there are special needs or requests, I'll make sure to fit them into our schedule. Please be sure to inform me of any sensitivities or anxiety to keep them as comfortable as possible.

A typical day

I love to explore and walk, we'll take in all the sights and smells while we exercise. If your pup prefers to simply relax with some company and treats, we can do that too. As for our feline friends, we can play with toys, cuddle on the couch, or just their feeding and cleaning routine if they prefer to be left alone.
