Loving & Passionate Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

I’m here to comfort your feline friends while you’re away! Put your mind at ease knowing your pet will have a stress-free experience. My promise to my clients is to love and pamper your animals whether you’re away for a few days or week! Providing plenty of attention to your furry friends whether they are independent or snugglers! I am considered the “animal whisperer” by many. I enjoy talking to pets like they are human. Whether your pet is shy or a social butterfly, I will engage in conversation with them throughout my stay. Growing up, I had 2 cats, 1 dog and currently have one feline friend named Harlee who is Miss Sassypants! She will remain in good care at home while I am away caring for your fur babies!

Nikki was great and very accommodating to help take care of our three dogs. She really knows what she is doing and would definitely book again!

Nikki is like the cat whisperer! From the first interaction she had with my two cats she was caring for, they immediately took to her… even the one who rarely goes to strangers. Before leaving our cats in her care, Nikki went over every detail, even ones I hadn’t thought of. She stayed in our home for four nights and took excellent care of the girls. We have one cat who requires a few medications, and special drinking and eating routines, and she followed the routines perfectly. Both cats were happy and healthy when we returned. And our house even looked cleaner when we got home than when we left it! I would highly recommend Nikki, and will definitely use her again myself.

Nikki was unbelievable! I could not have asked for a better sitter for our Frenchie. I was super nervous about heading abroad for a week and leaving her behind but Nikki immediately put me at ease. A great communicator. Lots of videos and pics and I could tell our Frenchie was in good hands and really happy. My house was left immaculate plus she took the initiative to help with other things that were not expected of her! Do not hesitate to book with her!

Nikki was great with our young Rhodesian Ridgeback. He has lots of energy and she did a great job getting him out for exercise. He also needs plenty of attention and snuggling and he seemed pretty satisfied after Nikki spent the day with him. We will hire Nikki again to care for both our dog and cat!

It’s important to know your pets personality ahead of time to understand if it’s a good match. I want to make sure I can meet the needs of your pets and to give them the attention they require.

A typical day

I work best with pets that are laid back and have a flexible eating and going out schedule. I enjoy taking dogs for a long walk around the neighborhood and playing fetch to exert extra energy. For cats, I enjoy stimulating them with toy wands, lasers, or balls.
