Pet care experience
⭐️ As a note: currently we can only accept dogs that are 8lbs or smaller. ⭐️ Hi, I'm Nina! I am a lifelong dog owner, and have owned dogs since the age of four. I am currently the proud mom of one senior pug, one chihuahua, and one Yorkie mix. Previously I was mom to a senior chihuahua mix who had anxiety issues, and a senior pug who needed medication and to be expressed (he had had several strokes and couldn’t pee on his own). Due to his inability to use his hind legs, I walked him with a special harness. If your dog has similar needs, I can assist with this task too! Senior dogs are my favorite types of dogs to work with. The bulk of my professional experience (besides having owned many, many dogs in my lifetime, big and small) is having previously worked at a dog rescue and as a dog walker. I also have experience working at a dog pop up and dog cafe. I have experience feeding, walking, grooming, cleaning up after, and administering medication to dogs, and am able to confidently manage dogs in social situations. As a writer, I work part time and am home frequently. Looking forward to walking and caring for your fur babies as well as I do my own!
Reviews
Nina is such a lovely person!! She made drop off and pick up super easy and definitely kept my mind at ease during Milo's entire stay at her place. She will send you daily updates and pictures throughout your pet's stay and is super responsive. Milo had a great time with her and I will definitely book again and again!
Nina gave our girl ("Sweetroll") a loving environment. An endless stream of pictures showed she was having a great time with the other dogs and humans she stayed with. Nina also kept us informed about issues as they arose. As a sign of how much Sweetroll enjoyed her stay, when I went to pick her up, she came towards me, but immediately turned to Nina and her friend as if she was tempted to stay. Thanks again!
This was our first time using Rover, and Nina and her three dogs took such great care of Scout. Nina sent pictures and videos to us throughout our trip, so we always knew that things were going well. We could tell that Scout had lots of fun playing with the other dogs, since she slept for hours when we got home ? We highly recommend Nina!
Honey had an amazing stay with all of her new dog friends. We got awesome updates with photos and videos throughout the stay. Nina was flexible and great at communicating with us the whole time. We would definitely have Honey with them again!

I have a fenced backyard that my own dogs like to run around in. I also have three dogs of my own who can keep your dog company. We also have rooms with doors, so your dog can be fed separately if they need.

Information Nina K. would like to know about your pet
Currently we are only accepting dogs that weigh less that 10 pounds. One of my 3 dogs had a bad experience with a big dog attacking him. We’re working on it, but he’s very scared of dogs that are bigger than him (unfortunately, he’s only 10lbs so that rules out a lot of dogs).
A typical day
My favorite thing to do with the dogs I watch is to hang out and snuggle with them on the couch. We also live within walking distance of a dog park!

I currently work part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pup(s)! My schedule varies, but I’m rarely away for more than four hours.
