Punctual, caring, and active
Pet care experience
I have done both cat drop-ins as well as dog walks (large and small dogs) during my time at Rover, but can also do drop-ins for any other animals provided I am given care info. Recently, I was a foster mom for about a year with the Feline Foundation of Greater Washington and am a current foster for Fancy Cats Rescue, taking care of cats of all ages and types including adult cats, those suffering from asthma, kittens, a pregnant cat (and later her babies!) I'm particularly experienced in dealing with extremely active cats and kittens, but am always up for enjoying some peaceful relaxation time with them as well. I love playing with them, but know when to give them their space. I've also had plenty of experience administrating oral medication and inhalers with the AeroKat if needed. I have looked after dogs of all sizes including pomeranian mix, terriers, and also larger poodles and huskies. I work a 9-5 job, but work from home most days so am available for quick drop-ins during the day. Your pets will have my undivided attention (or not if they don't care for it) and love!
Reviews
I highly recommend Nithya for dog walking services. She is friendly, has a great attitude, and is very skilled at handling dogs. My dog, Yumi, came home tired and happy after her walk. So I'm grateful to have found her.
She is awesome and our kitty loves her
Nithya fulfilled what I asked her to do, and she is easy to work with. Thank you Nithya!
Nithya did an excellent job of taking care of my cat
About Nithya M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I had a cat of my own and used to foster active young pets, so I am used to being careful going in and out of the house. If there are other animals in your home, I will ensure the safety of all pets while I take your dog for a walk.
Information Nithya M. would like to know about your pet
None - I welcome pets of all kinds and ages. If your dog requires medication, please let me know the dosage and I can administer it for you.
A typical day
For dog walks, I will spend the full 30 minutes giving your dog the best walk of their life! I can lift up to 50 lbs so if your dog has an injury, I can carry them if needed. If there are certain routes or parks you'd like me to go to, I am flexible and have a roomy car so can go wherever your dog is comfortable! For drop-ins, cats can enjoy chasing after yarn as I pull it across the hallways, hunting and chewing on cat toys and fun cuddle sessions if they wish for it. If you don't have many toys at home, I am willing to bring some on my visits!
Services
Nithya can watch in your home
Availability
I work full-time, but generally work from home so am flexible on drop-in or house-sit times. My weekends are usually busy but if you give me at least 2-3 days notice I will do my best to make time for your pets!
