Animal Lover/ Professional 🐶

Thanks for taking the time to read my about me! I think my experience in the pet field as a kennel manager and vet tech has helped to make me more knowledgeable and confident in my ability to work and be responsible for your fur babies! Me and my wife have always loved animals. We both make the joke we love dogs and cats more than humans.. funny thing is.. it’s not a joke! The innocence and love of our pets is nothing short of a blessing. I would be honored to help you and your family out in anyway you may need! *Experience with a variety of animals Feel free to contact and ask me any questions you might think of.. I rarely trust other people with my fur babies so I know how nervous a parent can get! I’ll send pictures and updates through out the service! Paw Five, Niklaus I’ve got plenty of time for your fur babies! Just let me know what works best for you! Before I provide the booked services, I like to chat about your pets needs. It’s important to me to keep their stress at a minimum as they are already missing their family and benefit from normal routines!

I personally believe testimonials from past client speak more to my care than I can explain in this section. The majority of my clients use my house sitting service where I stay in your home from roughly 5pm-8am.

Nik was wonderful! We went away on a vacation and we are not sure if we had a better vacation or our pets did. He was attentive, played with them daily and gave them special tlc time. He sent pics and communicated with us so we were able to truly relax and enjoy ourselves. We will definitely use Nik and his lovely wife Shay who helped out. They are great people and were the perfect team/fit for our full house:)

These two were INCREDIBLE! Was in a last minute pinch and it couldn’t have gone better. They took such good care of Roger while I was gone for the night and did a great job communicating & updating on happenings. 10/10.

Niklaus went above and beyond in the care of our fur babies. He ensured they were loved, cuddled and fed while we were away. Both of our older dogs suffer with anxiety and they felt at home with him. Niklaus sent us daily updates with pictures so we could keep updated ok our animals. Our husky had an upset tummy and was not feeling his best and Niklaus reached out to us directly and ensured we were informed, fed him chicken and followed up after his stay to make sure our pet was okay. Highly recommend him and his services we will be using him again in the future!

Nik was very prompt with communication and, most importantly, took EXCELLENT care of our two cats. He arrived promptly at the designated time and sent fun photos of our fur babies. I highly recommend him!
