Friendly pet walker & boarder!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Nissah and I am a huge animal lover! I have grown up around cats, dogs, and rodents all of my life, and I have a lot of experience in taking care of them. I also have some experience with reptiles! I want to give pet parents peace of mind that their fur baby will be tended to and cared for by someone who is very passionate about what they do, I take animal care very seriously. Safety is the utmost importance, but I also want to ensure that your pet will have a great time as well! I have a wide availability for bookings. I do walking, drop ins, day care, and boarding! My home is suitable for boarding small and small-medium dogs who are not aggressive and are house and potty trained (if not potty trained, you must give me a heads up and supply diapers & wee wee pads.) Puppies, senior dogs, and certain special needs are allowed, but you will need to contact me first with their information and details for us to see if it’s a right fit. Proper care is of great importance! I live with my mother, who also loves animals but they would be strictly under my care nonetheless, as it is my responsibility. I do not currently have any pets of my own at home 🥺 so there won’t be any other animals in my apartment. I have a flexible schedule, and am willing to travel to any semi-safe area in or near Schenectady for pet drop ins and walks. My range is a bit wider for boarding pick ups. I am looking forward to booking with you!

Nissah took excellent care of Nico while he was recovering from his surgery. He also was treated to fresh foods to aid in his nutrition. Nico was so fond of her that he didn’t want to leave.

My Ruby loves Nissah. She is really great and patient with my rambunctious pup. She's always punctual and friendly. We love having Nissah to walk Ruby.

Nissah was a great sitter for our dog. Very attentive. Sent lots of pictures and videos and asked lots of questions to make sure my dog had the best stay!

Nissah was very accommodating and flexible with my travel plans. Sasha had a great time with her! I felt comfortable with her watching my baby - definitely will use her again!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a small but comfy 2 bedroom apartment in a complex. I do not have a yard however I live in walking distance from a beautiful park and there are stations with bags and trash for dog walking right here in my complex! Kids do like to play outside near the community park and garden. I live on the second floor, and since I will be the responsible pet sitter, crating and such will be in my bedroom. Pets are absolutely welcome to spend time anywhere in my home, as well! I just like to make sure they stay in my company. :) As for sitting in pet parents home, I am very respectful and would like to be in a safe environment just as I would like to provide one at my own place. Feel free to message me with any questions or concerns! Side note: My mom does smoke in the living room normally, I can keep pets in my room for this or ask that she goes outside to smoke for their stay.

Information Nissah G. would like to know about your pet

Only small and medium pets. I love every breed but there isn’t currently room for larger dogs here. Dogs have to be house and potty trained and they must be safe to have at my home. No aggressive dogs regardless of size. I can look after a wide range of animals, as I’ve had a variety of pets. My preferences are to look after dogs, cats, rodents, and reptiles with legs. I however cannot accept birds or spiders. I’m a little scared of snakes so probably not them either.

A typical day

We live in walking distance from a very beautiful park. I can always run, play tug rope, almost any playing activities. Feel free to pack your pups favorite toy for boarding or daycare! I also love to have tons of cuddle time with pets who are of the cuddly sorts. When I am looking after another’s fur baby, it is as if I am loving them as my own, and my goal is to not only ensure safety, but make a best friend! I would love to get to know your pet and their personal needs and interests. :)
