Looking for new doggo friends!
Pet care experience
I have worked in an in-home pet care facility caring for up to 10 dogs at a time. Duties included walking and behavior training (on/off leash walking, exercising, socialization and commands). I have worked with all breeds sizes and ages and love the life of working with animals. My experience spans over a period of 8+ years and differing environments. I can also provide references upon request of the client. Above all my passion and connection to animals grows with every new animal i meet! My philosophy on dogs can be summerized by the following quote from a professional dog trainer and monk of New Skete "We are to listen to a dog until we discover what is needed instead of imposing ourselves in the name of training" - Brother Thomas

Nik was the best! He's super friendly and well-communicated if we had any questions or wanted to check in. Upon meeting Indy (our 4-month old pup), he asked all of the right questions, and you could sense that he really knows dogs and has a way with them. Our pup seems to really like going on walks and spending time with him. Even with all of our instructions and schedule preferences, he executed everything perfectly. Grateful to have him care for our pup!
Nikolay was a caring, attentive and loving sitter for my best friend Widget. She warmed up to him fast, and was by his side the whole time. He took such good care of her, she didn't seem to miss me at all.
He was great with my dogs. Boomer doesnt take to new.people that well. He handled her wth patience and got her to not bark at every little sound. Ollie loved him and hung out with him the entire day we were gone. He walked them without problems. Would hire him again!
Niko has been such a blessing to me and my wife's home. We hate to leave our dog home alone when we have work and Niko has truly helped us in our time of need. Panda used to be so antsy and anxious to the point she would shake and loose spots in her fur. After Niko's care and much needed advice, we would come home to a happy and relaxed dog. Instead of tearing up our home from anxiety, she would be tired from playing and seem satisfied and calm. I rarely see her shake since Niko has started playing with her and watching her and her fur has grown back. I feel like we have a better dog for leaving her in Niko's care.

No preferences to breed. Just a little background on your dogs history, temperment, and any issues they may have or points of importance so i ca. Better prepare my approach.
A typical day
Pack walks are a great way to not only train but establish trust and deepen bonds. Socialization is a must if you want to have a well rounded dog that can grounded in all situations.
