About Nikola
Pet care experience
Hi 👋🏼, I'm Nikola, a dedicated and experienced pet care provider with over 8 years of personal experience and 4 years of professional experience caring for animals of all breeds and sizes 🐶.
My lifelong love for animals (especially dogs!) has given me the privilege of caring for various pets, including dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, and birds. While I’m currently unable to have a dog of my own, I’m excited to share my time and attention with your furry friend.
I’m committed to ensuring every pet feels comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quality cuddle time, I treat every pet as if they were my own. 🐾
I know finding the right sitter and leaving your dog with someone new can be difficult. That’s why I prioritise excellent communication, sending frequent updates with photos and videos to keep you informed about your pet’s well-being. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your dog, making my home feel like their second home. 🏡
Feel free to check out the reviews on my page to see how I’ve helped other pet owners and their furry friends. I’d love to chat and answer any questions you may have! 🌟
My schedule
As a university student, my timetable is quite flexible, with some days having as little as three hours of lectures or none at all. I also have online lectures some days, so I’m at home and available for your pet.
When you send me a request, I’ll provide you with an overview of my schedule for the specific days. I prefer to accept dogs that can stay alone for a couple of hours, but if your dog isn’t comfortable with that, please let me know so I can make the necessary arrangements to ensure they are always comfortable. 😻
Safety and environment
Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. My home is fully equipped with a dog gate, a camera for monitoring, clean play areas, and cosy resting spots. I maintain a pet-safe environment, free from hazards, to ensure your dog feels comfortable and secure.
Also:
• I am DBS checked for added peace of mind
• I have a front porch with a separate lockable door before entering my flat, ensuring extra security
• I am highly responsive and send frequent updates
• I always create Rover Cards for every walk, showing the route, time, and pictures
Typical Day
• I typically do three walks a day: morning, afternoon and evening - tailored to your dog’s needs.
• I enjoy exploring different areas, so walks often include the neighbourhood, the beach, Southsea Common, or local parks.
• I give treats and always praise good behaviour to reinforce positive habits.
• Fun activities like fetch or tug of war are always great!
• I provide lots of cuddles and plenty of companionship throughout the day.
