Pet care experience

Raised around dogs🐾❤️ FR/EN/DE/SWE

I grew up taking care of our dogs feeding them, taking them on walks, playing with them, teaching them tricks, and learning to understand their behavior while also respecting when they need rest and space. I also used to take care of my grandmothers, sisters, and family friends dogs back in Sweden.

Doggy Day Care • mai 12, 2026

Niklas est une personne adorable, doux et attentionné. Lupo l’aime beaucoup et a tout de suite été à l’aise en sa présence. Il a apprécié les balades, les jeux et ses câlins. On refera appel à lui sans hésiter !

Niklas has helped care for my puppy on multiple occasions, and I’ve always had a fantastic experience with him. He is patient, attentive, and clearly very comfortable around dogs of all ages, including young puppies who need extra care and supervision. My pup is always excited to see him and comes home happy and well cared for. Niklas is dependable, communicative, and genuinely loves spending time with animals. I would trust him anytime with my dog.

niklas was honestly amazing with Paloma. i am so grateful i found him. she stayed with him for a week. from the start, he was incredibly attentive, calm and just genuinely caring. we were dealing with a bit of a tricky situation with her and he really took the time to understand what has going on - he helped me so incredibly much. what i appreciated the most is how present he was, not just with Paloma, but also with me - he reassured me, helped me navigate things and made me feel like she was in really good hands at all times. you can tell he actually cares which is rare. paloma felt comfortable with him very quickly and that says everything. i would trust him again without thinking twice. thank you again niklas truly 🩵

Niklas has been taking care of my dog in a variety of ways, including walks, overnight stays at his home when I’m away, and stopping by to feed him when I’m working late. He has always been incredibly reliable, caring, and attentive. My dog, Rudy, is a reactive dog who doesn’t trust people easily, so I’m very selective about who looks after him. That’s why it means so much that Rudy instantly felt comfortable with Niklas and quickly grew very attached to him. It’s clear that Niklas has a natural way with animals and treats Rudy like his own. I always have complete peace of mind knowing Rudy is in such kind and capable hands.

I had a great experience with him as a dog sitter. He took care of my dogs overnight, including walks, feeding, and making sure they felt comfortable and at home. It really felt like a little sleepover for them, and they came back happy, relaxed, and well cared for. He is a true dog person and has grown up around animals his whole life. With a background of being around dog breeding and shows, he has a natural understanding of different breeds and their needs. He has experience with a wide range of dogs, including Pitbulls, Australian Shepherds, Rough Collies, Ridgebacks, Border Collies, Golden Retrievers, Beagles, Labradors, and Chihuahuas. What stands out most is how naturally dogs connect with him they genuinely seem to love being around him. I have complete trust in him when it comes to caring for animals and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, experienced, and caring dog sitter.

Schedule

Pet care fits really well into my daily and weekly routine. I’ve recently finished my foundation year in Art, which currently gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time. Because of this, I’m available throughout the week, including evenings and overnight stays.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether in my home or the owner’s home, I always make sure pets are in a safe, calm, and caring environment. I follow each dog’s usual routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, rest, and any specific instructions, to help them feel comfortable and secure. Although I do not have a garden, I provide plenty of walks, exercise, and attention throughout the day.

A typical day

I spend a lot of time outdoors, going on walks and visiting nearby parks where the dogs can play, explore, and enjoy fresh air. Depending on the pet’s energy level and personality, I mix active playtime like fetch or light running with more relaxed moments where we simply sit together, unwind, and enjoy the surroundings. I always make sure they get the right balance of stimulation, attention, and rest. My goal is to make each day feel comfortable and enjoyable for them, while keeping their routine consistent and stress free.

Feeding times, portion sizes, and any extras (like supplements or food mix ins) are important to know in advance so I can keep their routine exactly the way they’re used to. If the dog has any medical needs, takes medication, or needs special care (calming routines, mobility support, etc.), I follow instructions carefully.
