About Nikki

Hi, I'm Nikki, a lifelong animal lover based in Hopper Crossing. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and if I could, I'd have a whole farm full of them! I currently share my home with Chilli, my much-loved Staffy, who is a valued member of the family.

I have experience caring for dogs and cats and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine and needs. I enjoy caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and providing them with a safe, loving, and comfortable environment while their owners are away.

I work from home, which means pets in my care receive plenty of attention, companionship and supervision throughout the day. My home has a secure, small courtyard off my lounge room and backyard that is fully fenced. I am located close to several parks and dog-friendly areas, providing plenty of opportunities for exercise, enrichment and play. Walks are tailored to your dog's age, fitness level and preferences, with safety always being my priority.

Some of the local areas I regularly use include:

  • Cambridge Reserve Dog Off-Leash Area – a local off-leash area where dogs can safely explore, exercise and socialise.
  • Off Leash Dog Area (D1 Drainage Reserve - Mossfiel to Callander) – a popular local dog-friendly walking area close to home.
  • Mossfiel Reserve – a spacious reserve ideal for on-leash walks, sniffing adventures and exercise.
  • Hogans Road Reserve – another large local reserve offering plenty of open space for walking and enrichment. 

I will care for your pet as if they were my own and tailor communication to your preferences, whether that's regular updates and photos or occasional check-ins. As a pet owner who has used pet-sitting services myself, I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind and ensure your pet feels loved, comfortable and secure in my care. 🐾💜
