Dependable quality care
Pet care experience
I have always taken care of animals, have two dogs of my own, a Belgian malinois named Frito and is very social and is not your typical malinois. He is trained, kind, loves all dogs and people. Daisy is my pound puppy and the reason I started doing all of this. She is also kind, loves people and dogs and is the best bark alarm. Both my dogs are professionally trained with E-collars. I helped run a doggie daycare for a professional trainer and have used E-collars. I can help out with reinforcing training also. I do have experience with aggressive dogs, but don't allow them at my place. I own my own business called A Dogs Day Out in Palmer Lake and am fully insured.
Reviews
Nikki was great with my pups. They are very high energy and she was very helpful in my time of need!
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.
My sometimes nervous boy was happy to leave me for a day out with Nikki. He had a blast and was wonderfully spent when I picked him up. Can't wait to come again! Thank you!
Sully came home tired and happy! Nikki took him to the park and sent pictures and updates. Thanks for taking such good care of my guy!

Safety, trust & environment
I have two dogs that play well with any dog. I am a stay at home dog mom so there is lots of time to play and things that will keep them comfortable. I make sure there is appropriate behavior with play and any interactions the dogs have, they are supervised at all times. I have 900sq ft of area in my house for the dogs to play in. They have access to the outside whenever they need it. I have separate rooms for any dogs that need their space and an outdoor patio in addition to a fenced back yard. I feel that the dogs need mental and physical stimulation not just running and being over stimulated. I can also do pick-up and drop off from your home.
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 start the day off with a long run at the dog park, then we come home and they can relax or continue to play. I make sure there is appropriate down time so they can take a nap after running/playing/exercise. In the afternoon we go can go back to the dog park or if everyone is tired enough we can just stay home and relax. Also working with them to mentally stimulate them. Everything I do with them will be a positive experience.
