Loving Pet Care
I’ve spent the past five years caring for dogs and cats both in rescues and in homes, and I truly treat every pet like my own. I’ve volunteered at Foothill Dog Rescue in Folsom, CA for four years and at Almost There Rescue in Phoenix, AZ for one year, working with animals of all ages, breeds, and personalities. From playful puppies and curious kittens to pets who need special medication, I have the patience, skill, and love to keep them happy and healthy. Whether it’s snuggles, walks, playtime, or just making sure they feel safe while you’re away, I’m here to give your furry family members the compassionate care they deserve. A little bit about me! I am 22 years old and graduated from Barrett, The Honors College at Arizona State University with a Summa Cum Laude Award. Since graduating I have worked in the event industry as an Event Operations Manager at Marriott. I am passionate about volunteering and spending time with my friends and family.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they can relax and feel at ease. I maintain a consistent routine that includes regular feeding times, fresh water at all times, supervised play, daily exercise, and plenty of affection. I also ensure pets have a quiet, secure space to rest and adapt to their surroundings at their own pace. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions precisely to maintain the pet’s normal routine and minimize stress. This includes feeding, administering medications if needed, walking or playtime, cleaning up after the pet, and providing updates with photos so you can feel confident while you’re away. I treat each home with the utmost respect, ensuring it is left as clean and secure as I found it. My priority is the health, safety, and happiness of every pet in my care.
Ratings and reviews
Nikki is a friendly and capable dog walker who did a great job with my large dog. She communicated clearly, asked thoughtful questions, and adapted well to our need. It was easy to coordinate with her, and my dog was comfortable with her right away. I’d happily recommend her for dog walking.
Good communication, takes great care of my dog babies
Nikki was AMAZING. She took the best care of Millie and my house. She kept me updated every day and sent so many great pictures. I would highly recommend her and will continue to use her going forward.
I have three golden retrievers and anyone with goldens knows that’s no small task! Nikki, or Nicole, handles all three like a total pro. They manage walks, playtime, and even give medication to one of my pups with ease. It’s such a relief knowing my dogs are not only cared for, but genuinely loved. They come home happy, tired, and clearly in great hands every time!
Title: Outstanding Care for Our Pup! 🐾 We couldn’t be happier with the care Nikki provided. From the moment we met, it was clear they truly love animals. They took the time to learn our dog’s routines, quirks, and favorite toys, and sent regular updates (with adorable photos!) while we were away. Our dog came home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for — which says it all. Nikki went above and beyond, even making sure the house was tidy and our dog’s water and food areas were spotless. It’s such a relief to find someone we can completely trust with our furry family member. We’ll absolutely be booking again!

Schedule
Here’s how you could add a schedule section that fits with the warm tone of your Rover profile: I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide care when you and your pets need it most. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, or overnight stays on weekdays, weekends, and most holidays. Whether you need early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle sessions, I can adjust to your pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. My goal is to make scheduling easy for you while keeping your pets’ days consistent and happy.
