Whatever your needs are, I can make it work! If your dog has a more specific routine, that’s great. If it’s more relaxed, that’s also great! I am very adaptable. I do well with reading body language of dogs (my pup is a little feisty)! I am able to walk long distances, play active games, and more.

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages- I’ve raised a puppy as well as taken care of my childhood dog into old age (he passed at 17). I’ve done lots of pet sitting and house sitting, whether it be drop-ins or overnight stays. I’ve yet to meet a dog who I don’t love!

Nina took wonderful care of our dog, Akira, during an extended stay. She was very communicative throughout, sent us lots of pictures and updates, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Akira was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. We would definitely hire Nina again and highly recommend her!

Nikolina has years of experience caring for her own dogs and has always shown love, care and patience with them. She has also done housesitting and petsitting for friends and neighbors. She's got great attention to detail and will follow any special instructions around feeding, walk times and making sure your pet has everything they need when you are out of the house or on vacation.

Nikolina has such a big heart for animals. In the many years I have known her she has always taken amazing care of her animals, knows how to get along with them, and handle them. She is very responsible, reliable, punctual, and someone you can count on.

Nina is super sweet and very responsible. She has done lots of volunteer work with shelter animals, such as taking shelter dogs for their daily walks. She brings a positive attitude to everything she does and gets along with people and animals, no matter the situation!
