I will care for your dog as my own.

Pet care experience

**Female dogs only** Hi, I’m Nikki. I’ve taken care of and owned animals my entire life. I currently am a dog mom of a female Doberman and a male Great Dane. For the past 4 years I’ve been a dog foster mom for 3 dog rescues. In doing so, I pick the dog up and they live with me in my home until they are adopted. I’ve taken care of several family and friends dogs over the years, either just checking in on them through the day or evening as well as keeping them overnight. In my home, dogs are allowed on the furniture and in the bed, it’s their home, I just live here LOL! I have a house with a large fenced in backyard. I am an avid walker so as long as your dog is good on the leash I will take them for long walks, but make no mistake, my dog loves to play so they can be very active in the house playing when we are not outside. If they would rather just be left alone, I can keep them in a quiet spot so they can sleep or relax, whatever their preference is. I am able to provide overnight boarding in my home, daycare in my home during the day on weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I’m also available for evening weekend check-in’s just to feed your dog or take them for a walk if you live nearby. I can supply several references upon request. I work from home 2-3 days of the week and go into work on the other days. I am available for daytime doggy daycare, evening and weekend check-in’s in your home or overnight care in my home. ***Prefer to care for female dogs only.

Nikki was a great sitter. She has a nice place that is very dog friendly. Sent us pictures and videos all the time while we were gone. When we returned Nikki took the time to tell us all about how things went and how our dog adjusted throughout the stay. Would highly recommend!

Nikki was great with my dog. She kept me updated on his daily activities during my extended vacation. Nikki is clearly a dog lover and it shows. Highly recommended!

Nikki was great with our pup. She provided constant updates, and it was clear she took extra attention and care to our nervous dog!

Safety, trust & environment

I provide pet care in my home only unless just a stop in is scheduled. If a pet is in my home, they are treated, just like they are my own dog. They have the same access to the couch and the bed, to the backyard, daily walks, chew toys, whatever it is that they need.

Information Nikki D. would like to know about your pet

I need to ensure that any dog I care for is good with other dogs and is 100% housebroken. If they have any special needs, I would want to discuss that ahead of time so that I can be fully prepared to provide the best care for them before they arrive.

A typical day

Large yard and inside to play. Daily walks. On the days that I’m home, they have free roam of the house, several potty breaks, fed on your dogs, schedule, treats, and evening walks. On the days that I am at work, they would be crated while I’m gone and then once I get home, they have playtime and walks for the rest of the evening.
