Full-time love-your pup is priority

Pet care experience

Right off the bat you should know: Your doggy is my first priority! Full-time love, lots of attention and playtime. I'm here because I adore animals more than anything and believe they should to be given all the love they need while their favorite person (you) leaves them with me (who strives to be their second favorite person hehe) so that they are comfortable and are surrounded with people who care for them. I'm an artist who has been pet sitting since as long as I can remember and can't see myself ever not doing it. In between performing and being on set, I love walking dogs and helping pet owners when they go away by staying at their place to be with their furbabies full-time, feeding/playing with them, and giving them any type of medication if needed. My prices vary and are subject to change depending on what services you require and what works for everyone. I'm flexible :) -Me staying overnight at your home: $83 -Just check ins (2-3 a day): $30-$40 -Just dog walking: $22 (30 mins) $42 (60 mins) -All-Day Day-Care: $60 We can always work out a custom quote, as well! I've had dogs, cats, and all other sorts of animals my entire life. I've rescued many and have involved myself in a few animal charities. I recently adopted an Elephant that I provide for out in Kenya, who I love with my entire heart. My goal in life is to spread love, assistance, companionship, and a little more love! :)

Nikki took amazing care of my pup Luna while I had to be away working in New York. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout her stay and it was clear they had a lovely time together. (Nikki also left the house in better shape than I left it). Highly recommended and will book again!

Nikki stayed with my dog Archie this last weekend and did a perfect job! It was my first time leaving him with someone I didn’t know, and my dog can be a bit timid, so I was anxious at first, but Nikki immediately made me feel at ease and provided tons of updates and pictures throughout the weekend. I have 0 complaints and will be using her every time I can!

Nikki was absolutely fabulous with my dog. She sent me photos throughout my dog’s stay, took her on walks in the park, and played with her. I appreciated her communication and my dog had so much fun while she was there. I would definitely ask Nikki to watch my dog again!
