My Background
My name is Nikita Rodgers.
I'm a student at Auckland University studying Biology and Psychology with a specialisation in animal psychology, and I work part time at a Doggie Daycare, Kennel and Cattery when I'm not studying.
It is without doubt the best job in the world!
About My Dog
I have a dog of my own named Opal.
She is a Border Collie X Blue Heeler, and one of the sweetest dogs in the world. Opal often comes to work with me and helps me look after all sorts of dogs, from playful puppies to lazy lap dogs!
About Me
I'm looking to pamper a few more pooches when I'm not working or at university.
I enjoy taking dogs out for big adventures as well as having a cuddle session on the sofa!
I treat every dog like my own, and strongly believe in the power of positive reinforcement.
When I'm not studying, I live on a lifestyle block with dogs, horses, sheep and cats.
This, combined with my employment and my studies, gives me a lot of experience working with animals of all sizes, species and temperaments.
I'll take on almost any pet - so long as they're vaccinated!
