Experienced Doggie and Kitty Care

Pet care experience

Hi all! I have 13 years experience caring for dogs of most all sizes, ages, and temperaments and my late, dear jack russell/beagle for 17 wonderful years. I have 6 years experience fostering and volunteering with my hometown SPCA and have cared for puppies, adults, and senior dogs. I also have great success housebreaking and leash training adult dogs. Also ask me about training, baths, and nail clipping! I do it all! With me, your dog will go on all sorts of (safe) adventures in Downtown Richmond! I am an avid runner, so if your dog is physically able we can run all over the place! I have raised my family cat to the ripe old age of 21 and also fostered many cats and kitten litters over the years if you are interested in having me watch your cat. I love all dog breeds! However, if you do have a dog that is a Pitbull, American Staffordshire Terrier, Chow Chow, or dog that is 50-80 lbs (or over) I do ask that you provide a harness for them as they tend to be very powerful breeds and I want to ensure the safety of your pet during their time with me. Please contact me if you are interested.

Nyssa was easy to communicate with, took great care with my dog, and sent lots of pictures of him having fun all day. Randal came home happy & exhausted from his day of playing. I highly recommend Nyssa for your dog-sitting needs!

It was our first experience using DogVacay and Nyssa made it a positive one. She worked with our forever changing schedule and was absolutely great with Gunny. Nyssa responded to all my messages within minutes and kept me up to date with how my pup was doing. If you are looking for a safe and friendly place for your pet, you just found it. Thank you Nyssa!

This was our first time letting a "stranger" watch our 10-month-old puppy. Nyssa did an incredible job watching Stella! She updated us multiple times throughout the day with videos and photos and she always responded promptly to our questions. We will definitely use Nyssa the next time we need a dog sitter.

Our dog stayed with Nyssa over a long weekend and seemed to have a great time! She sent us several photos during his stay to keep us informed about how he was doing. We already plan to book with Nyssa again soon!
