Dependable Care In Your Home

I love all animals and pride myself on being a life long Pet Rescuer and Volunteer. I have years of experience caring for all types of animals both large and small, furry, feathered or scaled. I will watch over Your Pets & home, day & overnight while you are away. This is perfect for multi pet house holds or special needs pets such as puppies or elderly dogs. I will maintain pets regular daily routine as per your instruction. Pets are happier and more relaxed when they can remain in their own home while pet parents are away. I will be happy to maintain Pets Grooming & Vet Appointments with a Pet Taxi booking. The pets regular schedule of food, meds, hugs, walks and play time will occur as instructed. I can spend over night in your home and will check in during the day every 2 to 4 hours or as appropriate. Your home will be maintained in a clean and orderly fashion. I can check mail, water house plants and notify you of any home maintenance issues such as pool pump or irrigation system. Your home will not appear vacant while you are away as blinds and lights will be rotated. A daily report card and photos will be submitted to you. I will offer piece of mind watching over Your Pets & Home. You will receive reliable, loving care for a stress free vacation! I look forward to meeting you and your pets soon.

House Sitting • Feb 18, 2025

Nikki was amazing! We used Nikki for 3 days and 2 overnights and we have 3 dogs, 3 Cats, and a rabbit. As I’m sure if you are reading this your animals your animals are your fur “babies”. Nikki made sure to give use updates and pictures throughout each day and not once did we have to ask about our fur babies because how well she updated us. She kept the same routines that we have with all our animals. She went above and beyond with changing cat litter, picking up dog poop and etc. when we got home the house was cleaner than how we left it for her. We could tell how happy our fur babies were with her and could tell they missed her when she was gone. Anyways it was truly a wonderful experience with Nikki

Got it! Here's a revised review: --- We struck gold with Nikki housesitting our three Doberman pinchers for a full day and night! One of our Dobermans, Remy, who is over 120lbs and has a heart condition, requires numerous medications and supplements at precise times. Nikki handled it like a pro. She also kept a close eye on our 5.5-month-old pup who still has accidents, cleaning up with no fuss. Nikki went above and beyond, staying through the night because Remy often needs to go out due to his heart medication. She kept us in the loop with pictures and updates throughout, and we felt incredibly lucky to have found her. Our Red Doberman, Baxter, kept going back to the guest rooms looking for her after she left, showing just how quickly she develops bonds. Thank you, Nikki! Highly recommend!

Nikki was amazing!!!! She treated our babies like they were hers. We have 4 dogs and they all loved her so much. I was very nervous to leave them. She made all that go away. She kept in contact, sent pictures, and made sure to follow their routine. We really were able to relax and not worry our whole vacation. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.

Our dogs Norman and Lucky had the best care and time with Nikki when she stayed at our house. We can not say enough great things about how happy we were with how Nikki took care of our fur kids. Nikki was great about updates daily with pictures. Knowing our pups were so well cared for while we were on vacation let us enjoy our time away. We came home to a spotless house and very happy dogs. Nikki Went beyond to make sure dogs and house were well taken care of. Great experience for dogs and us all the way around. More than 5 stars happy. Lisa

What a relief to find a sitter like Nikki!!! She took good Care of Sarge while I had to be away. She did exactly as I asked and always sent a photo of my dog so I could be assured he was happy and healthy while I was away. Also, if she saw anything unusual at the house, she would let me know. Will definitely recommend her to others! Thank you !!!!
