Loves running and playing with dogs

Pet care experience

I’ve had dogs my entire life from jack Russell terriers to Australian shepherds. I absolutely love dogs of all breeds. I’ve pet-sit for many people and even worked at a zoo for several summers. Currently, I’m taking a gap year before medical school which gives me a lot of free time to walk and pet-sit around the city of Pittsburgh. Being a recent Pitt graduate, I know the area very well and have a lot of hiking trails mapped out. I have a long hiking trail behind my apartment which I would love to walk with dogs. I can also walk around any other park in the city. I can run, play tug of war, fetch, or anything else. I’m very responsible and will take care of your dog as if he/she were my own.

Nikki has walked and pet-sit my dog in Chicago for 8 years. To say she did an exemplary job is to understate the fact. She was always prompt, caring, and Buddy loved her. He’d come back tired form his walks and was so excited to see her again. She has a kind and gentile disposition but displays the confidence to maintain control over any animal under her care. I believe dogs sense these qualities and remain obedient while feeling safe and secure under her guidance.

Nikki’s a huge animal-lover. Ever since she was little she was volunteering at animal shelters and the zoo, although dogs were always her favorite. She has such a way with them. If it’s an elderly dog she’ll walk him slowly and be very gentle. With the younger dogs, she can run for ages and get all their energy out. She gives her full care and attention to them. There’s no one I’d trust more to take care of my dog.
