Pet care experience
- Full-time, at home care - Experience range from house training puppies to elderly/ill dogs - Access to Pet Cam - One overnight client/pet family at a time SAHDM (Stay at home Dog Momma) here. My husband and I live in a large, child-free home with our two dogs, a 13 year old Maltese named Dobby and a 7 year old Shepard-mix named Lola. In addition to full-time supervision and care for your pet, I provide access to a dog camera setup in our living room where you can view your fur babies at play and even dispense treats! I have personal experience with a variety of pets - cats, dogs, hamsters, and bunnies. While I am now only a dog mom, I consider myself a cat person as well, and find that even the most selective of kitties will warm to me. In addition to frequent potty breaks in the big back yard, I am happy to take your dogs on walks as directed so that they can keep their regular routine while you are away. I quit my corporate job in the summer of 2021 and spend my days at home. My husband works outside the home full time. We are covid cautious and take precautions when leaving the house and interacting with others. I am generally home and your pet would not be at my home alone for more than 2 hours at a time. My husband hasn't met a dog he doesn't love and the feeling is usually mutual. In my home: we have a fenced yard. My senior, small dog sleeps all day and will not play with guest animals but our Shepard, while shy, does like company and will play if we allow her. I recently had a small puppy stay and I did not allow my Shepard to play for safety reasons and she obediently left the puppy alone. We allow our dogs on the couch and bed but will adhere to your rules when it comes to your pets. Sleeping arrangements will be at your (and your dogs') direction. If they are used to sleeping on the bed, we can all sleep together, or I can sleep with your dog alone in our guest room. If a doggie bed or crate is preferred, we can arrange that as well Care at your home can be customized to your needs, whether that be drop-in care or overnight stays. Message me to discuss!
Reviews
We’ve been away from home for over 3 months and never able to do anything without Lucy then I discovered Rover. What a great day we had, Nina was awesome!!!! Lucy loved her and we were at ease knowing she was in good hands! Thank you so much, Nina….Highly recommend!!
Nina was so great with our pups! She took the time to meet them prior to introducing them to her dogs, and sent lots of pictures during their stay. Our pups were in a great mood when we picked them up which says to us that they felt comfortable with Nina and her husband. We certainly hope to work with her in the near future!
Nina was great! Pictures everyday and great updates. Our dog was very comfortable there and enjoyed playing with her pups. We will definitely be using her again for our future travels!
Nina, Dan, and her two sweet dogs were absolutely wonderful. Warm and welcoming, incredibly responsive and communicative. Nina seemed very prepared and responsible and the Furbo was above and beyond. This was my first time leaving my dog with a stranger but I could immediately tell I was leaving her in excellent hands. Prior, throughout, and after daycare I felt that my dog would receive all the love and care I could hope for. I wish I lived closer to St Louis, but will definitely look her up next time I’m in town—I highly recommend! Thanks so much, Nina!

We have a large, fenced in yard with a 6' fence, which is great for frequent potty breaks and running around. I can also take your dog for walks if they need more more exercise.
Home
Information Nina C. would like to know about your pet
I'd like to know a dog's eating schedule, exercise needs, sleep routine, and anything they may require for a comfortable stay. Logistics including drop off and pickup time should also be discussed in advance of their stay.
A typical day
We can be as active or as relaxed as your dog wants. We can walk the neighborhood or they can enjoy the large back yard. We have tons of toys. I most enjoy couch/cuddle time, myself.

Availability
I am currently enjoying a sabbatical from work and am free the majority of the time. Drop offs before 6 am or pickups after 10 pm may be better served with an overnight stay. We can discuss what works best for you.
