Nina once again took wonderful care of our fur covered babies. She makes it possible to take vacations. She is the best. I highly recommend her.

Nina is so kind and caring! Our meet and greet went really well with my two cats. They were well taken care of and I was so happy to have found Nina to bring me comfort while I was away. I will be reaching out to her again for my next vacation :)

As usual, Nina did an excellent job taking care of my Kitties and getting them to take their medication. They are getting used to her and not hiding anymore, so I am getting some excellent pictures of them sent to me by Nina. This gives me GREAT reassurance.

My Kitties are shy of new people, but NINA has only cared for them once 6 months ago and they are already warmed up to her. I LOVE the pics NINA sends to me while she is caring for my girls. It makes me miss them less and makes my travels less stressful and more relaxing.

Nina did a great job! Our shy cat felt safe around her and she took great care of our cat who needs medication.

Nina is the best! I can't imagine being able to go away without knowing that she is taking such great care of our fur babies. She stays in constant contact, and is very loving & caring with them. I have complete confidence in her & know they are safe & well taken care of. I highly recommend Nina! ❤️

Please let me know ahead of time if your dog is not house trained. When boarding in my home I do not allow dogs on the bed, they need to sleep in a crate or trained to stay on their pet bed or blanket during the night.
