“Nikkita was perfect. We needed a walker same day with very little notice and she came through to walk our boy. She was very sweet and communicated everything with us. We would definitely use her again.”
About: Although my family has never owned a dog, I have always loved taking care of my aunts, neighbors, and family friends dogs. I always make sure to pay attention to detail when watching a dog and meet each dogs needs whether that be a walk, playing with a toy, belly rubs, or even just relaxing. As a part-time graduate student at USM, I will have time during the day for a dog walk, or to check-in on your pup! I will be available on most weekends for house and dog sitting. I am available to come to your dog and stay with him/her so they do not have to move out of their comfortable environment and stay at a new space with new people.
“Another great visit by Mike with Roscoe! He really understands how to work and play with Roscoe who can be a bit picky. Roscoe is always happy and relaxed when I get home.”

“Tracie is phenomenal and I would recommend her for all of your pet needs! The next time I am on vacation I will choose her again. She communicates very efficiently & treated my pets like her own.”
