Pet care experience

Dedicated & playful pet care!

I have experience with boarding and walking a variety of dogs from young, untrained puppies to larger dogs. I can be relied on to check-in/walk your pets while you are at work or can take on longer multiple day stays. I’m currently a biology PhD student and my schedule currently allows for great flexibility to adapt to your pet’s needs. I’m highly communicative and excited to work with you so you feel at ease leaving your pet in my care :)

Nina was fantastic! From the beginning communication was excellent and she made sure to send me pictures and updates about Blue. When I got home everything was perfect and Blue was a happy boy. I highly recommend her services! Until next time! Thank you again!

Nina took great care of my pets while I was out of town. She genuinely cares about animals and treats them like her own. My dog and cats were happy, well cared for, and comfortable the entire time. She's incredibly reliable, communicative, and went above and beyond. Highly recommend!

Nina has been an incredible dog sitter and walker for me, and I can’t recommend her enough. She’s watched my dog several times, and every experience has been stress free and positive. Nina is extremely responsible and always goes above and beyond to make sure my dog (who has anxiety) is well cared for and feels safe. She consistently sends updates and photos which I appreciate and it’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals she works with. If you’re looking for someone reliable and caring, Nina is an excellent choice!

Schedule

I am currently a graduate student with a fairly flexible schedule that allows me to work from home if needed so I can give your pets greater attention. Otherwise, I may go in for a morning or afternoon, but have the flexibility to return home for frequent walks.

Please let me know if your pets have any specific needs or behaviors to be aware of (e.g. nervous or reactive with other animals). I want to know ahead of time so I can give them the best care and make sure they’re comfortable throughout their walk or stay with me!
