No dog is "too much" to handle!

Pet care experience

I have cared for dogs of all breeds and ages from Chihuahuas to Mastiffs (which were my family's breed of choice). I spent the better part of my youth dog- and housesitting as a "job," and enjoyed every minute of it. I was the designated sitter for many families and still sit, occasionally, for some dogs in my extended family. I am gentle and understanding, and would never impose myself on a dog who is seemingly uncomfortable. I am tolerant and patient with dogs and will gladly give them whatever time and space they need to become comfortable around me.

Nikki has been around dogs her entire life and is an animal lover. She is good-natured and very patient. Not only has she cared for friend's and family members pets, she has grown up with pet mastiffs (among other animals). I feel like if you can successfully care for a dog as big as a mastiff, you can handle any dog!

I have known Nikki for 6+ years. She is a trustworthy, passionate, and responsible person who puts 110% in everything she does. Nikki has owned dogs her entire life, and it is always amazing to see her with her two french mastiffs! I would absolutely trust her with my fur babies :)

Whenever I go out of town, I know my little Khloe is in great hands with Nikki and will get attention, affection, and be treated as if she were her own! She has been around (very big!) dogs since a baby, so she I know she is comfortable with all breeds and is knowledgeable about various forms of care. Nikki is not only great with dogs but is an extremely dependable person whom I fully trust with my best friend.

Nikki is fantastic with dogs. She works with my German Shepherd, who is extremely energetic, and she is able to handle him with ease. Yoshi, my dog, does not do very well while on leash regularly, but she is one of the few that can keep him inline. When it comes time to play, he will not leave her side. I also know her two giant Mastiffs, she takes tremendous care of them as well.
