Years of rescue work experience!

Pet care experience

*I rarely open up for new clients, so if you can see my profile, come say hi!* Several years of experience with humane societies and personal pets. Experienced with most breeds from Chihuahua to Great Dane. I’m generally affectionate and playful towards most animals, but I do understand that some just like to do their business. I also love the kitties (mostly for the sass and toe beans). I’ve been an animal lover since I was just a toddler when I tried to convince my mother to let me keep 2 turkeys that wandered into our yard. A little about me: I’m a college graduate from the University of Mississippi. I’ve been in Raleigh since June ‘16, so I have adapted to the area. In my spare time, I enjoy bike riding, concerts, museums, and trying to figure out where my dogs hid the toy they’re crying about. I’ve been off Rover for about two years but I’m back! Let me scratch some bellies!! Side note: I know it can get expensive when you need several visits. If you have a budget, please reach out. I’m here to take care of the babies first and foremost.

Nikki was great with my old dog! She was very understanding of her limitations and did just what we had asked. Will definitely be using her again!

Nikki was so good to my little guy and kept sending adorable pictures and updates. Made my little boy a happy pup without us.

Nikki is amazing!! I have since moved and have been unable to find the type of care she provided. I am a medical sales rep with a ton of travel and I cannot say enough good things about Nikki! I have a tough rescue dog, who adored her, and an even more challenging schedule and I never once had any stress. Nikki I miss you and so does Jax! Thank you so much!!

Safety, trust & environment

I have an escape artist, so I’m very aware of where they are at all times. Any situations that arise that seem too overwhelming, whether that be around other dogs or people, I love to redirect attention and get away from the problems. I have a very reactive dog, so trust me when I say. I get it. I got their back. Always.

Information Nikki B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has certain tendencies to be reactive towards other dogs or people so I can be on my toes. And please let me know if they’ve ever had seizures or if they are currently on medication.

A typical day

Most of my work is short visits for walks, but I do love to play. I’ve been told via tail wags and panting pups that I’m the best at fetch. And we love a household with mentally stimulating games!
