Avid Hiker & Dog Lover for Hire!

Pet care experience

My name is Nikki and my pawrtner in crime is Skippy, like the peanut butter. I've loved dogs my whole life and I've made a whole career out of that love for dogs! Best part? I'll treat your dog like my own, every time. I think daily exercise (and lots and lots of cuddles) is an important part of a dog's daily health regime. Even into Skippy's senior years, I make sure he gets two 30 minute walks around our quiet shore neighborhood daily - rain, wind, snow, or shine! I have professional on and off-leash experience with dogs from all walks of the four-legged life. Special seniors, playful puppies, gentle rescues, responsive purebreds, tiny chihuahuas, boisterous bichons, and wonderous wolfhounds alike! My professional background has included hands-on work in animal pack play, dog training, dog behavior and language, kennel care, and grooming; so you can trust I’m equipped with the pet care experience to make sure your pet's stay is fun AND safe for everyone. PERKS: ☆ Dog-friendly furniture (beds too!) ☆ All walks are 30 min minimum. ☆ No breed restrictions! ☆ I am Canine CPR certified & able to administer medications! AVAILABILITY: ☆ Variable! Please message me with your request at least 24-48 hours prior to your requested stay and we can set everything up one-on-one. IMPORTANT: ☆ Current proof of rabies vaccination required via vet record or collar tag prior to booking. ☆ Your pet must be comfortable with other dogs, cats, men, and women. ☆ Your pet must be house trained. Extra fees will be charged for carpet cleaning if necessary. ☆ Dogs are always kept on a leash outside the house. ☆ I recommend that if your dog is not protected in some way against fleas and ticks to get them protected if you are a local to this area! If they are not, please let me know so that I can be extra careful in checking them after walks and hikes. ☆ My published rates are non-negotiable.

She was great. Sadie loved her. I think she was sad to leave. Will definitely use Nikki again.

Louie's visit with Nikki went very well. He was happy and wagging his tail when I picked him up. I would recommend Nikki.

Nikki was great! She took wonderful care of Oscar. She kept us up to date and sent pictures of all of the activities they did.

Nikki was great - my dog came back very happy and healthy. The text messages / updates gave me invaluable peace of mind while I was away from my dog. Would recommend her to anyone.
