Dog foster mom, sitter, walker!

Pet care experience

I have a decade of professional experience caring for dogs including boarding, sitting, walking, and fostering. All ages, sizes, and breeds are welcome with me! Personally, I grew up with a boxer (so high-energy doesn't bother me) and then adopted a senior german shepherd as my first solo dog in adulthood (so "scary" breeds and older dogs are close to my heart). I currently have an 8-year-old mixed breed girl named Bessie. I've been a volunteer and foster mom for about 3 years now and have fostered 20+ dogs. I'm experienced with all sorts of personalities, breeds, and needs. Your pet will be safe and cared for with me no matter what!

Nikki fostered the dog I ended up adopting and has watched her several times since then, and I feel like the best review I can give is to say that, even after months apart, my dog still greets her with the same enthusiasm as she does her forever family. Nikki clearly has a real passion for animals, and understands how to be both firm and loving (I have an extremely high energy dog who can easily overwhelm). Nikki was the perfect hands to foster my girl and my first call when I need a sitter for her since. This dog is my world, but I absolutely never worry for a moment about her health or safety when leaving her with Nikki, because I know she will care for her just as well as I do and ensure she feels just as loved during her temporary stay as she does at home.

I’ve used Nikki to watch my dog multiple times and can’t say enough good things! I am very strict with who I leave my dog with and always feel at ease when he is in her care when I am away. I have even planned my vacations around the dates she was available! She is communicative and sends pictures. My dog loves her. Highly recommend!

Nikki has been taking care of my pups for over 3 years and we’d be lost without her. She’s stayed at our home more times than I can count and we never have to think twice about the level of care Gus and Murphy will be getting. She has taken care of them for weekend trips, short overnights, vacations, pop ins when we are stuck at work, and even our wedding and honeymoon (giving us a carefree experience). She’s incredibly reliable and knowing we have her support is invaluable given our family lives in New England- she’s become our fur baby support system and we are grateful. Nikki is a dog lover and fosters regularly through a local rescue. 100% recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, loving, quality care.
