Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Nikki. I am originally from Missouri and moved to Texas in 2021. My Fiancé and I live in Lakeway with his son, two dogs, and two cats. Husky: Koda GSP: Echo Black Cat: Remi Orange Cat: Oliver Growing up with pets is what started my love for them. I had all types of animals from horses all the way to bearded dragons. I always begged my parents for more. I have raised and trained all my own animals since they were babies. I am familiar with pet care routines including administering medicine (oral, topical, and injection), basic training, and grooming. I furthered my love for animals by going to college and majoring in animal science. I learned true husbandry, medicines, behaviors, and so much more. Within my time in college, I did internships at a deer farm raising the fawns and a rescue in Costa Rica specializing in rehabilitating monkeys! I truly believe your animals are your family. Your children will be treated like my own and their well being is my top priority. I can’t wait to meet them and give them all the love!

Nikki was great! She took care of my two kittens and did a fabulous job. Sent photos, notified me when she saw something off and updated me after every visit. Highly recommended.

Nikki's home is truly a sanctuary for pets. She had two adorable dogs and a cat that are well behaved and terrific companions. My dog loved her time with them. Nikki treated my dog as if it was her own. I received frequent updates and pictures/movies. She checked in to ensure she was doing as I had requested - following my instructions to the T. I will definitely use her again and recommend anyone else looking for someone to care for their little pets to do the same.

Our three dogs and two cats love Nikki. She took great care of them while we were gone. She took care of medication that one of our dogs and one of our cats needed. We received pictures of everyone while we were on vacation, which was greatly appreciated. When she comes for walks, our dogs are always ready to go with her. She goes above and beyond. Nikki will be the only one we call for pet sitting.

I have two dogs and two cats of my own, all which get a long with other animals. My animals are use to pets coming and going and my dogs like to think of them as new best friends! I like to do meet and greets for new clients, just to make sure everyone gets a long. I keep an eye on all pets, even when they have play time in the back yard. I take multiple pictures and videos each day and send them your way so you know your pup is in the best care. Everything in our home is dog proof and they can have as much fun as they would like!

Information Nikki B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there is anything special about your dog that I need to know! Anything from special needs to just shy! I love to learn about your animal and want to make sure it will be the best vacation for your pet!

A typical day

We go on daily walks as well as adventuring out to the city park right down the road. My dog, Echo, loves to try to chase the birds down there! There will be lots of play time in the back yard with any game your dog loves to play. If your pup is more of a quiet and reserved type, then they will just get extra snuggles and love♥️

Working from home has blessed me with being able to spend all my time with my animals. My day typically starts by getting up at 6am and let the dogs out. I walk the dogs daily for a minimum of 30 minutes. During the day they have lots of play time in our fenced in yard and inside for all the pets and cuddles. I normally settle down for the night by taking them on one last walk around 7pm and last potty break around 10pm. If there is a special schedule that your dog follows, please let me know!
