Pet care experience
Experienced Care for Dogs & Cats
I have been caring for animals my entire life. I grew up with dogs and have experience handling breeds of all sizes, including large dogs. I love going on walks and playing with dogs of all ages, from puppies to elderly dogs. I am comfortable administering medications and had to give regular injections to my own 90-lb dog, so I understand the importance of calm handling and gentle reassurance. In addition to being a lifelong dog person, I am currently happily “owned” by three cats who I absolutely adore. Living with cats has taught me how much they thrive on routine, patience, and play. I am attentive to special care needs, whether that means following a precise feeding schedule, administering medication, or making time for interactive play and affection. As an anxious pet parent myself, I know how important it is to have a sitter you trust to carefully follow instructions and keep in touch. I am happy to send frequent updates and photos (as many as you would like) so you always feel connected and reassured while you are away. I have experience across different ages and needs of pets, and a responsible, detail-oriented approach. I am also very comfortable caring for multiple pets at once, making sure each one feels safe, happy, and cared for.

Safety, trust & environment
When visiting pets in their own home or taking them for walks, I make safety and trust my top priorities. I take time to carefully note and follow each owner’s instructions so that pets stay comfortable and routines remain consistent. Whether it is feeding, medications, or walk preferences, I make sure to understand exactly what is expected. I also pay close attention to the environment. I will always double check doors, gates, and leashes to keep pets safe, and keep an eye out for anything unusual. My goal is to provide peace of mind for owners and a calm, reliable presence for their pets.
Ratings and reviews
Nina is everything you're looking for in someone to take care of your beloved pet. She is gentle, easygoing, responsible and totally professional. My two pups can be a bit of a handful together, but she didn't blink an eye when she walked in and they were acting like popcorn gone wild. Esther and George adored her instantly and I trust her completely.
Nina was attentive, communicative and reliable. Initially Fisher didn't want to do for a walk, but she was persistent and tried different things. Success story! Thank you Nina
Nina has been a wonderful caregiver for my pets. She looked after my elderly dog with mobility issues with great patience and attention, while also keeping up with my three energetic cats. She takes extra time to play with them and clearly cares deeply about their wellbeing. I fully trust and rely on her, and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a thoughtful and dependable petsitter. I love getting photo updates and the peace of mind that she can handle complicated feeding instructions or medications whenever they've been needed.

Schedule
I work remotely from home and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to easily fit pet care into my day. This means I can give pets plenty of attention, maintain consistent routines, and be available for walks, playtime, or check-ins as needed.
