Pet care experience
I've always taken care of many different animals. I actually used to be a cat person until my dog Bella. Shes my "support" animal and even was there when I had my son. Since than I just really became to understand and just love dogs! I love interacting with each of the different personalities in dogs and I became to really understand and teach dogs how to get along and learned that if I project positive energy anything is possible. And as well as teach each of them how to behave properly and etc. I'm a full time stay at home mom. I have two children. 1 year old Mila and 3 year old boy named Ilya. And so our routine is pretty simple. Play all day long and run around ( chasing pups 🤗🤣🤦♀️😁 around !!! I definitely make sure if owner has any specific instructions I follow it to the t. Otherwise its just like for my dogs. Also if its not too hot they stay outside and play....as of course I supervise them. Treats are always are must as wel playing in water and fetch.

Nina and her pups are lovely! She was able to accommodate my schedule, and I got updates while he was there.
Very communicative and accomodating.
Only because I have to hit a star. Boarded 2 of our Babies with her. First day, one of the 5 dogs she had there(3 of her own) got into and ate chocolate chip cookies. Next day was one got on kitchen table and ate chocolate covered apple. Third day they got out of her yard. Fence turned out to be locked with zip cord. We were paid up until 11:30 A.M. and by 9am she was wanting us to pick them up early because she had errands to run. Would Not Recommend Nina to anyone. I have a message she meant to send to her husband and sent to me instead saying, our dogs were something she couldn't pass on it was like coke.
Nina appeared nice at first, the meeting with her went well and she appeared to be someone who would actually care about my pups. I dropped them off later in the afternoon, she sent me messages and pictures of the two of them and every thing appeared normal. At almost 2 in the morning she bombarded my phone with messages about how I needed to come get my dogs now and that they wouldn’t be able to stay because one had peed in her garage. She was explicitly warned by myself that they have separation anxiety and that the one who peed will tend to mark at times due to not being fixed, to which she said it was perfectly fine and, “there is stain remover.”. She claimed she put both dogs in the garage alone in the middle of the night because one was crying, rather than messaging me and asking for possible ways to solve the issue. I’m not really sure what she expected tossing two dogs in a completely new room separate from everyone in a house they’re already not used to. Once everything was settled in the morning and she brought them to a genuine boarding academy, she told the worker she didn’t know how much they ate which is not only filled out on Rover’s website but we specifically talked about for probably 10 minutes before I left her residency. Then she claimed my dogs were destructive (I warned her they will tend to chew if left alone, she never told me they chewed on anything) and aggressive (which is just completely untrue and she had no issue with when messaging me, other than “barking”) and the boarding academy when they told me this explained they had seen neither of those things from either dog because it’s simply not true. This has been the most horrible and stressful experience I’ve ever been through and I was honestly worried for my dog’s safety throughout the entire situation while in her care due to this but was unable to do a thing as I’m not even in state right now. If you can’t handle dogs, please don’t offer to board them.
