About Nikesha
Experience: 10 yrs
Hello, my name is Nikesha. I provide professional pet care services for a variety of animals, including cats, dogs, and small mammals. Additionally, I offer overnight care in my home, which features a spacious, fenced backyard. I reside in the Fox Chase/Rhawnhurst area of Northeast Philadelphia. As an active participant in animal welfare, I am affiliated with a nonprofit cat rescue organization and have extensive experience in animal care and addressing behavioral issues. My background also includes volunteering at pet stores for several years. I prioritize client communication, sending regular updates and photos to ensure pet owners stay informed and reassured about their pets' well-being while they are away.
Most recent review
Nikki(Nikesha) has been a caring for our pups for several years. She is very flexible, as sometimes she will take them for an overnight, and has cared for them for up to 10 days while we were away. She is very loving to our girls, Dora and Lucy, and sends photos and updates daily. When our pups see her, they are super happy to be there, and while we used to feel a little hesitant t leaving one of our pups because she is super shy and scares easily, it’s obvious that Nikki knows just what she needs, and provides both of them with lots of love, play, and walks. Nikki’s communication is excellent, always letting us know if the girls have eaten, meds given if needed,drop off and pick up times, and their well being under special circumstances like fireworks happening for a holiday when she has them. I highly recommend Nikki to care for your pets, and leave your worries behind while at work or vacation.
