Pet care experience
Hello! I’ll start by saying that your security and comfort in knowing your pet is safe and loved is my priority. I am an anxious dog mom and need assurance often that my pup is happy and safe. I will offer you whatever you need when it comes to your peace of mind. I can watch dogs at my home but do house checks on truly any animal! I can offer walks, park visits, but my main feature is a fenced backyard with a playful dog friend. I have played with, trained, and cared for dogs all of ages, breeds, and needs. I am a true animal lover with endless patience. I have spent time volunteering in shelters as well so I have learned a lot of body language techniques for more sensitive dogs. I can administer meds and other more specialized things if need be.
Reviews
Nina was great and attentive to my dogs and Ramona is so sweet! Her yard is big and practically a dog park! My dogs had so much fun running around and playing and I felt safe leaving them in her care.
Nina is intuitive and patient when it comes to caring for dogs. She has cared for my 3 pit/pit mix dogs for years. They aren’t always easy, and I am impressed with the way she is able to manage them. Nina has a dog who she trained very well, and is very gentle and well-socialized. Nina is always my first choice when I need a dog sitter.
Nina is such a playful and engaged pet caretaker. My cat is rambunctious and aloof but she's managed to develop a lot of trust with him. She knows how to build trust and works very intuitively with animals. She clearly knows a lot about dog training too and doesn't slack when it comes to reinforcing positive habits. Her own dog is always a favorite at the park.

Safety, trust & environment
In the warm months I leave the back door open for my dog to free range. Others are welcome to do the same but if it is crucial I keep an eye on your pet while in the yard then I got you covered! Feel free to ask me any questions! I’m excited to meet you and your furry fam.

Information Nina K. would like to know about your pet
I’d say the information that would be important to know ahead of time is can your dog go off leash at the park if the park is an option. Do they respond to their name. Do they have leash aggression and/or off leash aggression, specifics around that (I can work with either!). Any health needs/feeding needs.
A typical day
As I stated, my yard is always a fun place for dogs to play. There’s shade and grass and always access to water. We can play fetch, rough house, belly rubs. We can also go on walks or hit the nearby dog park!
