Pet care experience

**Caring for animals through Rover since January 2023** I have been caring for cats since I was I was 8 years old. I currently have three fur babies of my own and am fostering cats and other small animals. I also love dogs and am comfortable walking/sitting dogs of all sizes. When I walk your pup, my attention is all on them - I will not be on my phone (except to take the mandatory walk photos, of course!) or otherwise distracted.

Thank you to Nikki for taking care of our crew while we were away. Nikki is kind, responsive, and easy to get along with. Received updates and pictures, which are always appreciated. Would definitely recommend her!

Nikki was prompt and showed great care for my cat. I felt confident his needs were met while I was away.

Nikki was absolutely amazing! Our cat Maki was very well taken care of and loved his time with Nikki. We would have Nikki come back to take care of Maki anytime!

Safety, trust & environment

If you are too busy or otherwise unable to walk your pup, I am happy to take up to two dogs at a time for walks in your neighbourhood and/or check in on them, feed them and play with them in your yard or a nearby park. I am also happy to go to your home to feed and care for your dogs, cats and other small animals as required. I may be able to stay overnight in your home if required - please send me a message.

Information Nikki H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your animals have any special needs or require medication. I am comfortable with small and medium sized dogs and well-behaved larger dogs. I am comfortable with all cats and have experience caring for many small animals such as hamsters, rats and guinea pigs. I have spent time with my niece and nephew's geccos and birds.

A typical day

I love playing with all animals and am able to give them the love and attention they deserve. I would love to take your dog to their favourite nearby paths, trails and parks. I can also run with your dog provided it's not too icy! Please note that I am unable to take your animal in my car (except for emergencies) as it requires special insurance.
