Safety, trust & environment

I can provide care within your home and I don't mind walking a dog in any kind of terrain. I will treat your animals as if they're my own and their health and safety will come before all else.

Information Nina A. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know any special needs your animal has, or any preferences for toys or treats! If they tend to hide when somebody enters the home, let me know!

A typical day

I love to do whatever your pet likes to do! If they enjoy some time on the couch, I'll make sure they're as comfortable as can be. If they want to walk a couple miles, I'll gladly take them outside so they can burn some energy!

Vet Tech Student w/ Experience

Pet care experience

I have been volunteering in animal shelters for the past 6 years and I am a vet tech student at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. I can administer injections and handpill. I also have my own senior, diabetic dog at home and have no problem taking care of dogs that need a little more attention and time. I also have experience handling hamsters and mice and would be more than happy to meet the needs of any rodent!

We highly recommend Nina A. for any pet care services. She house sat for eight nights, taking great care of our 11 year old dog, Apollo. She is a highly responsible and conscientious person, who provided Apollo with a lot of love and attention. All of our inquiries were answered immediately by Nina. She provided pictures of our happy dog. Don’t hesitate to hire her!

Nina volunteered with me at a local animal shelter. Nina worked with many of the cats that were stressed and didn’t want anything to do with the volunteers. We called her the cat whisperer. Here dedication to improving the lives of all the shelter cats came from her heart and understanding of what each cat needed.

Nina is an extremely reliable person. I had the pleasure of volunteering with Nina at the local animal shelter in Connecticut. Nina has a wonderful way with animals. She loves them and the feeling is mutual. She will be a great person to watch your pet. They will be getting the best care with Nina !
