Dogs Are Better Than People
Pet care experience
I've been watching dogs and other animals since I was 12 years old. I recently moved to Florida, so my schedule is open and I am accepting new clients. Let's schedule a meet.
Reviews


We recently had Niko take care of our two pups and we couldn't be happier with the experience. This was our first time using Rover and we didn’t know what to expect but Niko made us feel very comfortable about everything. We got picture updates and it was clear that our pups were well taken care of. Will definitely be booking Niko again 😊


Niko was very professional and on time.Provided updated text messages and pictures during the week. It was a very nice surprise he cleaned the entire kitchen and vacuumed before we arrived back home. Would definitely use Niko again if available. Our dogs loved him!!

Our fav sitter always ❤️

Niko was great! Very attentive to my dog Zorro. He seemed very happy!

Information Nikolai O. would like to know about your pet
I understand owner's often have fears that they will not be booked if they disclose their pet's quirks. Most severe issues, for both a caretaker and your pet, can be prevented by being open and honest. I can work with a pet with aggression issues, over protectiveness, anxiety, special needs, ect. I can't work and won't continue to work with owners who try to hide these and put both their pets and myself in danger. Let's discuss.
A typical day
I work from home, full-time, for my main job. I often also work one day a week outside the home (3-5 times a month) doing security or other general labor day gigs. Besides work, I like to go out for kava or board games and also enjoy checking out a local bar/restaurant or other spot in the area where I'm sitting. I can we awkward with new people but am always pushing myself to get out there, relax, and communicate better. I'm very open food wise and into scotch and craft ciders. I've found some of my favorite places while sitting, so please share if you have any recommendations. Bonus points, if your pup is allowed to come too. Taking dogs for car rides or out to the beach is a favorite past time (If you've got a traveling cat, I don't discriminate). I usually go to Davis Island or Picnic Island, when I'm close to Tampa. Sunsets over water are the best! I'm an awful morning person, and will probably spend the first part of my day whining, back and forth, with a pup before getting up for the day. They are the best ways to wake up and get motivated! I'm working on keeping track of my phone better. I usually hang out on my off days and spend a lot of time getting to know my furry friends and all of their quirks. I enjoy cooking and like to invite a friend or two over for dinner, when I can. I love watching tv with furry, snuggle piles on the couch and sitting on back porches in the evening.

I have been working with Rover since 2017. I have taken care of all sorts of dogs, but I have a special place in my heart for pitties. I've helped raise 3 litters of puppies. I worked with an at-home foster rescue, mainly receiving dogs who had been severely neglected or were being used as bait/fighting dogs, for 6 years. I have patience, love, and never assume anything with a dog without learning their comfort levels. I have regular clients who I can't wait to see when their owners take a vacation, just so we can hang out. 😝🙃
