Pet care experience

Reliable animal lover!

I’ve loved animals my entire life. I grew up with a dog, 2 cats, and a horse amongst other miscellaneous critters! I’ve spent time fostering and caring for friends and family’s pets, and I’ve always been the go-to pet sitter in my communities. We love meeting new pets and getting to know all the different quirks they have!

Doggy Day Care • Aug 17, 2025

Nina was great at taking care of our dog Sheldon. She was very detail oriented, and you could tell immediately that she knew the small nuances of taking care of a wide variety of dogs. Would recommend Nina and let her take care of Sheldon again!

Nina is an amazing dog sitter! She went above and beyond for our recently adopted dog, Keuka, who still suffers from separation anxiety. Nina made Keuka feel comfortable right from the get go, and her dog, Grumble, became fast friends with our pup. We couldn't have asked for a more competent, dependable, or reliable dog sitter. We received multiple photo updates each day, including pictures of Keuka out on lovely strolls and during play time in the apartment. It was great to get these updates and see how happy Keuka was during her weeklong stay. We will absolutely use Nina again to watch our dog and we hope you will too!

Nina was very responsive and sent pictures and videos of Noodle frequently. Noodle seemed very happy and played well with Nina's own dog Grumble. Would definitely recommend again.

Drop-In Visits • Jun 02, 2025

Nina took great care of our cat while we were away, and was so attentive and communicative throughout! She shared lots of photos and videos and so kindly cleaned up after our cat who has a tendency to throw up hair balls. Our cat is older so we generally worry about her when we are away, but it’s much easier when she is well looked after in our absence and that’s how we felt with Nina checking in on her!

Safety, trust & environment

I am very respectful of your space and will always leave things in order. If your pet is staying in our home, rest assured our space will be a comfortable home-away-from-home for them. I am attentive, and love to spend time doting on your pet while you’re unable to! Our small dog, Grumble, is always very gentle and friendly and loves sharing his space and toys with friends.

Pets

A typical day

My partner and I love to explore the city, so we will happily take each dog on however long a walk is necessary. We will take time to stop and ‘smell the roses’ but to also get our blood pumping and work out some energy! If your pup is staying over, we’ll have lots of toys and play time, as well as relaxed time and brain-engaging activities (tricks for treats, puzzles, etc.).
