Pet care experience

My lifelong experience with pets has made me empathic towards the creatures on earth that can't speak (at least not with words). I've come to understand animals on an instinctive level. I’ve taken care of a wide variety of pets: dogs, cats, and even reptiles, for friends, family, and clients. I myself currently own two dogs and a few hens as pets. I've worked professionaly for pet care companies primarily focused on dog and cat care as well as experience with more exotic pets. As far as dogs go I've cared for a variety of breeds from tiny Shih Tzus to large Great Danes. When it comes to dog training I am a huge fan of positive reinforcement and love the book "Don't Shoot the Dog" by Karen Pryor My strengths are my loyalty, my commitment, my creativity and my independence.

I used Nikolas when I was working a few years. Now if I have a last minute need he has always helped me out. My dog Lexus is always well taken care of.

Have Nikolas coming to the house you walk / let out 2 big dogs. He is reliable and the dogs clearly like him as well. Is a great person to entrust with your animals and highly recommend to other people! Also had him house sit / watch the dogs for a week and it went off without a hitch. Came back and the dogs were happy and healthy
