24/7 Supervised Care For Your Pet

Pet care experience

I am a lifelong animal lover and owner and have been a reliable caretaker for many friends, neighbors, and colleagues pets over the years. I have experience with dogs and cats of all life stages and with those with special needs, allergies, injuries, and medications. I know how hard it can be to leave your beloved pet in someone else's care so my goal is to provide a safe, fun, and enriching space for your pup while you are away and treat them as if they were my own.

She was incredible! I’m so lucky that she was available on such short notice.

Nikki is not only a true dog lover, but also just a gem of a human being. She’s responsive, thoughtful, flexible, and treated my dogs like they were her own.

Nikki took great care of our Miniature Schnauzer. We will definitely have Barkley visit again.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in an apartment but I have plenty of space for other dogs along with my miniature schnauzer Walter. I have gates and plenty of extra beds to allow for alone downtime for the pups and for those that need separation for eating or anything else. I have lots of toys to play with and even a ball pit and a sprinkler for those who are interested:) I can gate my front courtyard for some running around but would typically rely on multiple walks throughout the day. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and can sleep in bed with me but I have space for a crate for those who prefer it. I have experience in medication administration, including insulin, and can accommodate any special needs or quirks. I have a car in case of emergencies and know all of the emergency and urgent care Vets in the Seattle area. I am a vigilant dog owner and would be the same for yours.

Information Nikki P. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pets have any allergies, special needs, or any quirks or fears. Prior to boarding, I would like to do a meet and greet and answer any questions you have as well as go over how best to care for your pet.

A typical day

I love to engage with animals thru play and walks to all the best sniff spots in the neighborhood. I have lots of toys and puzzles to enrich any type of dog and will look for activities that stimulate them based on their breed and life stage. Lots of love and attention can be expected with the hopes of creating a safe and fun environment for your pups stay.

I currently work full-time from home and care for my fun-loving and playful 2-year-old miniature schnauzer Walter. Your dog will never be left alone in my home and our typical day is playing with all of his toys and taking walks in our super dog-friendly neighborhood where there are lots of fun sniff spots and environments for enrichment. On the weekends we go for long walks at Discovery Park or Greenlake or any place we can find a fun adventure.
