About Nicholas

Experience: 1 yr

Hi! I'm Nicholas (or Nikk), and I am currently a Fashion Technology student at LA Trade-Tech! Last June (2023), I graduated from the University of California, Santa Barbara with a Bachelor of Arts in Language, Culture & Society and a Minor in Black Studies. I am now back at home in Whittier and searching for a way to make money while going back to school! Last summer, while my parents came to see me graduate, my childhood dog, Buddi passed away. Ever since, I have been asked by multiple neighbors, friends, and family members to dog-sit, which had never happened before, and somehow I think it might be a sign from my Buddi that I need dogs in my life again! I'm extremely enthusiastic about caring for dogs, as I did with my own, and I have now over a year experience of dog-sitting. I'm more than willing to be there just to walk them, watch them during the day, spend the night, and care for multiple dogs!

Nikk did a wonderful job watching my two dogs while I went out of town for a work trip. He made them feel comfortable and paid close attention to their feeding & potty break schedules. He made sure to update me with messages and pictures too! It’s always hard leaving our pets behind but I felt 100% confident that they were in good hands with Nikk. You won’t regret choosing him to take care of your furry friends!
