Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Nina and I've been in the petcare industry since 2016 working as a walker, sitter, daycare handler, and foster parent. I recently left my last full time job in order to focus on dog training education, and I decided to get back on Rover because I miss spending time with a furry companion. That being said, I want to offer my specific services up to owners who might have dogs with advanced/specific care needs- for example, if you and your pup have been working on leash reactivity, I would love to communicate with you to ensure that I can upkeep the same walk protocol while they are in my care. If you have enrichment activities or crating schedules that you know can help regulate your dog, let's keep those up! I love to tailor the care I provide to each dog's individual needs. I have specific experience handling dogs with medications, dietary restrictions, puppies, senior dogs, and bully breeds.

Nina was great with Lucy! Kept me updated throughout the day and took Lucy on a couple walks. Will book again!
We dog boarded our Yorky Terrier for a week with Nina and she proved to be the best decision for us. Nina was very attentive to Luna, especially with the special treatment she needed from her sensitive skin, going above and beyond to make sure Luna was recieving the care she needed. Whether it was her medical treatment or catchi
Nina took great care of our senior dog for 10 days this summer. She was mindful of our concern that our dog be watched on stairs and gave us peace of mind by sending daily photos and updates. She was also very responsive to emails during the booking process. I would highly recommend Nina to anyone looking for a conscientious and caring dog sitter.
Look no further once you read Nina’s profile...She is a phenomenal pet sitter. I am the owner of Marley, an 11 year old Lab. Due to Marley’s hind leg issues, it has become difficult for me to board him or leave him at someone else’s house when I travel, so Nina came and did 3 “drop-in visits” per day for the 4 days I was recently away. After each visit, I received a “Rover card” which detailed the exact time Nina was in my house, a detailed description of the visit as well as an adorable picture...Marley loved Nina immediately during our very first meet and greet...She is such a sweet, caring person...While I was away, she also fed my fish and took in my mail, in other words, went above and beyond...When you have a senior pet, especially one who takes daily medication, you seem to worry even more, but I knew immediately after only the first time I met Nina that Marley was in good hands...She is simply wonderful!

Safety, trust & environment
While I don't have yard access, I do live across from Grover Cleveland Park, so I can provide daily exercise in a larger space. I also have a small porch area that we can hang out on when the weather is nice. Note: my apartment has a flight of stairs to enter, so any dogs with mobility issues that are not comfortable being carried might not be a good fit.

Let me know about any behavioral issues/quirks and what I can do to best accommodate them! Every dog's ideal care is determined on a case by case basis, so all information is helpful and welcome.
A typical day
I like to stick to the dog's familiar schedule, but generally I account for a morning, afternoon, and evening walk with either enrichment activities or play breaks in between.
