Highlights
Pet care experience
Calm, Assertive, & Attentive
Hello, I’m Nina. I’ve been working with dogs most of my life and started my first dog-walking business at just 10 years old. I’ve worked with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and energy levels, and I always prioritize each dog’s comfort, safety, and overall well-being. I tailor each dog’s routine based on their needs and your preferences, whether that’s a relaxed day at home or more active time outside. I look forward to meeting your pup and helping them feel right at home while you’re away!

Ratings and reviews
Nina has been amazing! We have been so lucky to have found her. Our frenchies love her so much. They keep going to her room looking for her. She is the best sitter anyone could ask for. Lots of pics and keeps us update on everything.
We are so thankful for the wonderful care Nina took of our pets. Nina is a great communicator and went above and beyond keeping us informed with how our pets were doing. We received many photos showing how happy our fur babies were! Nina’s love of animals is obvious and she really cared for our pets as if they were her own. Our pets really enjoyed the time they spent with Nina. I highly recommend Nina if you’re looking for a pet sitter who will put your mind at ease so you can enjoy your time away.
There aren’t words to describe how great Nina was with our Frenchies. She was great at sending us pictures and keeping us up to date. She bonded immediately with our two frenchies. Elton may have sprained one of his hind legs and she notified us right away and gave him some of his meds for his sprain. We are very grateful to her for all the attention and care she gave to our kids.
Nina watched our dog a two cats for a week and she was absolutely wonderful! Our dog can take awhile to warm up to new people, but Nina managed to win her over right away. She kept us up to date with messages and photos while we were away, letting us know all was well. When we returned, the house was in perfect order and it was clear that all the pets were well cared for. Nina took our dog on so many fun hiking adventures that I think she missed Nina more than us!
Nina was awesome! My husband and I live out of the area but were visiting Reno and our hotel had a no pet policy, so we thought we would try someone close to where we were staying. I saw Nina’s profile and the positive reviews and determined it could be a good fit after we spoke on the phone. Nina was very professional and responsive throughout the entire duration leading up to our booking, and stayed in contact throughout their stay, providing lots of updates and pictures (which we loved!). It put our minds at ease seeing how happy and relaxed our boys appeared in the pictures. I was a little worried my boys might give her a little trouble because for some reason they aren’t huge fan of men, and I knew they would be around a guy but Scott is clearly a gem because my boys were cuddling up to him and one of them was following him around their house and wanting all his attention! Blew my mind a little (in a great way!) lol. When we went to pick them up they were calm, relaxed, and happy and fell fast asleep on the car ride home with zero PTSD lol. While I’m not in Nina’s area, I will absolutely see if she is available again next time we are out there.
Nina was considerate of me Senior dog's needs and provided excellent communication for the duration of the booking.

Schedule
Pet care is my primary role, so my schedule is flexible and I’m available throughout the week. I always prioritize giving your dog the time and attention they need.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
For boarding, I provide a calm home environment with a fully fenced yard. I’m happy to send updates and photos as often as you’d like so you can see how your dog is doing. I take a limited number of dogs at a time and can also offer single-family care upon request.
A typical day
Daily routines are tailored to each dog, with options for neighborhood walks, backyard play time, rest and cuddles, or other enrichment activities. I’m also happy to offer longer adventures, like hiking, for dogs who enjoy it.
