What Pet Parents Say
“Nina was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of Dora and kept me updated with photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease while I was away.” — Hayley K.

Science Meets Comedy
I'm also the creator of Dr. Nina's Pet Lab — a science comedy series starring real dogs as researchers. Follow along @drninaspetlab on Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook.
Want Your Pet in the Lab?
Dr. Nina's Pet Lab is a science comedy series where real pets appear as guest researchers and fellows. Every pet I sit for gets a complimentary Guest Researcher feature — a social post celebrating their visit to the Lab.
Some pets get invited to go further. Occasionally a pet earns a custom animated appearance in the series itself — voiced, styled, and featured in an actual episode. If you're curious, just mention it when you book.
