Information Nikki G. would like to know about your pet

Anything that is out of the ordinary that I need to know. Do they like to eat things that they shouldn't, or don't do well with big dogs or puppies? Are people reactive or timid with new experiences? Do they have recall for going on off leash walk? Do they understand leash pressure? Are you working on any behavioral issues like jumping, barking or just learning good manners?

A typical day

I will give them a walk or let them out. If there is something specific that the pet likes just let me know. We can play fetch, do a daily walk, go swimming at the lake or just a drop in to give food or meds. For daycare we will go to the dog park, a hike, car rides or anything else that will wear out your pup. For boarding I do require the pup to be kennel trained.

Pets

Dependable quality care

Pet care experience

I have always taken care of animals, have two dogs of my own. I own a pound puppy and a Belgian malinois. I understand needs of all different types of animals. I am confident around dogs that need a strong leader. I do have training skills that I learned while working for a professional trainer. I also have doggie daycare that I run out of my house. I'm able to come early morning midday late evening. Very flexible with schedules. If there's something specific you need, don't hesitate to tell me. Usually I can always make it work.

Nikki did a fantastic job taking care of our 6 month old puppy. She treated him as her own and sent updates with details on how the day was going. She also sent pictures. I would recommend Nikki to everyone.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
