My name is Niko and if you're looking for an experienced and reliable pet sitter or dog walker I'm your girl! I am an animal lover and aspiring vet, in the Shoreline area, with a standard poodle, mixed German Shepard and three cats at home. Growing up, my family called me Doctor Doolittle because I started bringing animals home and caring for them from a young age. I started pet sitting and walking dogs around my neighborhood when I was ten years old, later expanding my business to Craigslist and eventually found myself here on Rover! I love all dog breeds, big and small, and I am also experienced in caring for cats and bunnies. I have no problem administering medication with specific instructions as well as caring for dogs with special needs. I'm a barista by profession, so I typically work early in the morning and am home by noon to hang out with my animals! I also live an active lifestyle so you can be sure your pups will be well excersized when they come home to you! Dogs are allowed to cuddle in bed with me unless you don't let your dogs on the furniture or in bed at home, whatever habits or rules you enforce in your home I'll apply here :) I look forward to meeting you and your best friend!
