Pet Sitting
If you're leaving town for a weekend away or an extended vacation, Nikki's Petsitting will be there to give your pet the attention your pet deserves. Your pets routine will remain the same, whether your pet needs medication or if your loved fur kids are picky eaters. Your pet sitter are full of stimulation and exercise, if that's the norm or petting, cuddling or brushing are what they like.
Dog Walking
Like many people today you may work too many hours during the most playful time of your animal's day and find that you're not able to give them the daily exercise they need. Nikki's Petsitting offers a dog-walking program that gives your dog the daily exercise/playtime they need. A pet is just happier if he's exercised daily. Many behavioral problems in dogs stem from isolation, boredom and insufficient interaction. Mid-day visits are a great way for your pet to go out for a nice walk.
