Pawz Down! Best Care 4 Your Pup

Pet care experience

I adore all animals, especially dogs! I've taken care of a variety of dogs since I was 10 years old. I have cared for 2 of my dogs until they crossed the rainbow bridge. My husband and I currently have 2 cuties at home (4.5 yr. old Havapoo and 4 yr. old Morkie) that we love to completely spoil! I'm vaccinated, reliable, and flexible! *Routine Care: I prioritize regular feeding, walks, and playtime to keep pets happy and engaged. *Post-Walk Cleaning: After walks, all furry friends are cleaned from head to tail with pet-safe wipes, helping to maintain a clean and safe environment while reducing allergens and dirt. *Behavior Monitoring: I closely monitor their behavior to promptly address any needs or concerns. *Individual Attention: With a maximum of four dogs, including my two, I ensure one-on-one attention and care, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. *Safe and Clean Environment: Our home features an open space concept that is hazard-free, allowing the pups to play freely. They are also allowed on the furniture, making it a cozy and inviting space. *Experience with Senior Dogs: I have prior experience caring for senior dogs, including those with vision impairments and special needs. I can administer oral medication and provide extra cuddles (or space) along with special attention. *Pet First Aid & CPR Certified (Advanced) *Relaxing Dog Massage (15-30 min.) and Luxury Add-On Services: (Calming Massage Oil, Finishing Spa Spray, Paw Pad Balm, Fur Brushing, Spa Spray) *Message me for details and price list!

This was the best boarding experience ever for our 2 doxies! Nina took great care to ensure the instructions we provided were followed to the letter. She actively played with them; she also shared numerous photos & videos at regularly scheduled intervals every day. Nina’s 2 dogs are adorable too. We can’t say enough good things about this experience!

Coco had a fantastic time boarding with Nina, Maggie, and Kobe. Nina is very kind, caring, and looks after Coco really well. Her communication and updates are the best! She makes sure he gets his meals and walks on time and plays his favorite game of fetch with him. We love boarding Coco with Nina. Looking forward to more slumber pawties!

Once again an amazing day of daycare with Nina! Coco has so much fun with Kobe and Maggie, he loves it! Nina is an excellent communicator and her photo and video updates of Coco going about his day are super adorable. We feel very comfortable and at peace leaving Coco in Nina's care. Thank you!
