Back and ready to walk!

Pet care experience

Hi there! I took a short break from Rover as I moved and settled into the Quad cities area, but I am back and ready to drop in and/or walk your pet! Thanks in advance for considering me :) I grew up on a farm with many animals, especially cats and dogs. I wish I was able to have a dog of my own, but instead I will care for yours as if it were my own! Even on long days my hours are flexible. I am reliable, caring, trustworthy, and hardworking, and I will always put your dog first. I have been walking and pet sitting with Rover for several years now, so I know the drill. I am confident around dogs of all leash-skills, ages, needs, and am more than happy to work with you and your pet to make sure they get the best, personalized care possible!

Nikki stayed with our pup, Piper, and it was awesome. She took Piper for long walks, cuddled her, and sent us photos of our sweet girl. We felt at ease while we were away from our baby, knowing she was in good hands with Nikki!

My dog is my child and I can’t be happier with the care and attention Nikki gave her on my 2-week trip! She treated her like her own dog! Nikki is super kind and responsible and my dog loved her as well!

Information Nikki L. would like to know about your pet

I want your dog to have the most comfortable time while you are away, so whatever will reduce their stress (treats, exercise, amount of time with the dog, shyness etc) let me know as I am a rule follower and will follow anything to a T. Just their general schedules to try to keep their routines. Any specific needs or requests.

A typical day

I love to go on walks, so that is definitely something we can do, or we can chill in my backyard--play some fetch, run around, and get some pets! If you have special requests I am down for whatever your dog needs to be happy (I will even try running :) )
