Pet care experience

I love dogs and they love me too!

I have about 10 years' experience dog-walking and dog-sitting, and it's always been wonderful. I have great, lasting relationships with both my clients and their dogs. I used to be a member of the Dog Walking Society in Bristol, England, where we used to meet bi-weekly to discuss dog care services and voluntarily walk dogs whose owners were unable to walk them themselves due to disabilities, every alternate meeting. I have dogsat mostly in Brooklyn, NY, Oakland, CA, and Logan, UT. I have had dogs and other pets of my own and am personally well-acquainted with the various nuances of pet-care. I would love for the opportunity to love on your pup.

Niyonta had great communication, sent lots of pictures and was very attentive to my dog. My dog seemed very comfortable and happy staying with her. We’ll be a repeat client.

Niyonta is always a pleasure to book with. My girl comes with a lot of rules and Niyonta always follows them to the letter. She sends lots of photos and loves on Molly. We appreciate her very much.

Niyonta was a great host! She provided great photos of my dog Kate and was very responsive. She was easy to work with in working with my flexible schedule. I'd definitely book with her again.

We got pictures every day of them being active and playing and snuggling. It was easy to communicate with Niyonta and even though Skye was super excited to see me and go home she seemed to like her as well.

Schedule

My schedule is flexible, I live a 4 minute drive from my office, have the ability to work from home, and I find snoots therapeutic -- which all means max time your snoot holders 🐽.

Safety, trust & environment

I live with my kitty and pup, and have a fenced yard. It's a smoke-free and kid-free home with a surplus of cuddles. At drop-off, please make sure to include the following: 1. 2 bowls 2. Leash (and harness, if applicable) 3. Poop bags 4. Food (and treats, if applicable) 5. Bed and/or crate 6. Any number of their favorite toys / blankies / chews that are comforting to them that they may appreciate having during their stay

Pets

A typical day

Depends on the dog and what they enjoy doing. Generally, dogs enjoy playing fetch, playing with any other toys they are attached to, playing with other dogs, going on walks, getting scritchies, or just hanging out with / near you. That's likely what we'll be doing 😁. If a cat, or another pet, then it even more so depends on their temperament and needs.

Niyonta can host up to 3 pets per night
1. Do they get along with other dogs? 2. Do they have any medical conditions for which they require special care? 3. Are they house-trained? 4. Most importantly, where do they love being scritchied the most? 🧐
