Happy tails and happy trails

Pet care experience

I grew up with several pets in my home which blossomed my love for animals. My senior year of college I began fostering dogs from Shelby Humane Society. I have fostered dogs with behavioral and medical issues. My second long term foster was in my care after a leg amputation. Not long after healing he became a permanent resident and my best buddy. My college roommates and I fostered, long term and short, 9+ dogs who we have loved whole heartedly and helped find loving homes for. Opening up my home to dogs in need has been so rewarding and I would love to continue loving on more pups, especially those that have found there forever home. Now that I’m married with another sweet pup in the home, I hope to continue working with animals. Working through Rover will allow me to love and care for even more fur babies.

Nikki and her husband were wonderful sitters to work with! They came over for a meet and greet before the stay and we felt such ease knowing they would be taking care of our girl while we were away. They sent plenty of great pictures and really took the time to make sure she was well taken care of during each visit. They were knowledgeable, trustworthy and we would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter!

Nikki always does such a fantastic job taking care of our two cats. She’s incredibly thorough and sweet to them, and it gives us such peace of mind knowing we have someone we can trust taking care of them.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard with two pups who love to play! We are currently in a home and crate both our dogs. Anyone who stays is welcome to a crate as well. With all dogs, I always stay outside with them even in a fenced area to ensure safety! We also use our garage door to exit so there is little risk of escape. Dogs are fed separately and safety precautions are adjusted for the needs of each dog!

Information Nikki D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can meet. I also like to know what vet you use in case of emergencies!

A typical day

My pups love to play so there is an abundance of fun time and ways to expel energy. We have lots of toys and some puzzle toys to help stimulate them mentally and physically. Our favorite last time though is lots of cuddles!
