Pet care experience
Never worry about going away again!
Hello there, fellow pet parent! My name is Nikki, and I am an enthusiastic and reliable pet lover passionate about providing top-notch care to furry companions. With 30 years of dedicated pet care experience, I understand the importance of tailoring my services to meet each pet's unique needs and preferences. I have extensive experience, as well, with bully breeds and pets with anxiety issues. I ask for full instructions so that I know, down to the detail, how you care for your dogs and what they are like so that I can continue their schedules and care as you do. It's all about them, after all. And you. You'll return to a home that is the same as you left it. Whether your four-legged friend is a playful pup or a gentle giant, rest assured that they'll be in loving and capable hands under my care. From daily walks and engaging playtime to cozy cuddles and proper feeding, I am committed to maintaining your pet's well-being and happiness throughout our time together. If they like to sleep in the bed, I'm 100% open to that (and love it!) My approach to pet care prioritizes open communication and attention to detail. I'll update you with regular photos and messages, ensuring you're always in the loop about your pet's activities and demeanor. Safety is also a top concern, and I am well-versed in handling various situations that may arise while your pet is in my care. With 30 years of making sure dogs have happy and fulfilling lives, I'm here to help you feel comfortable while away by taking care of your pets in their own home.

Safety, trust & environment
Since I have hired pet sitters for my home, I know the kind of treatment and communication I want for my babies. I follow household rules and training protocols, provide lots of love and attention, and ensure your safety. You can feel confident that I will care for your home like mine while I'm there.
Ratings and reviews
Nikki is our absolute favorite caretaker for Ashe. You can tell from the pictures and videos she sends that our anxious guy feels so at home with and loved by her. She is attentive, so caring, and follows instructions exactly. She takes great care of our pup and our home and I just can't say enough good things about her. We have had Nikki come three times for overnight stays while out of town and if I had it my way we would always have her!
Nikki S. cancelled a booking 3 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Nikki was amazing and we will definitely book with her in the future. After a bad kennel experience we weren’t sure we’d ever be able to leave our two fur babies. Nikki made our week away easy and stress free. Constant updates photos and videos. Thanks again Nikki!
Nikki has watched our two rescue pups twice now and did an amazing job! She’s extremely communicative, leaves the house spotless, and most importantly - obviously loves dogs and takes amazing care of them!
We can't recommend Nikki enough. She is just the best with our anxious guy. He loves her (we can tell from the pictures and videos!) And he is so sad to see her go. He literally ran to try and find her to tell her we were home and looked genuinely disappointed when she wasn't there! The house was left in better shape than we left it. Nikki is the best!
Nikki was fabulous! She took amazing care of our two girls during our weekend away, one of which is a rambunctious puppy. She was extremely communicative and took great care of the house as well!
