Breeder of the ‘My Main Stream’ Kennel
Thanks to many years of working with dogs, Valeria can find an individual approach to any animal. Her additional knowledge in veterinary medicine, experience working at shelters, and handling client dogs allow her to excel as a professional in her field. All of Valeria’s pets have become champions in multiple countries, which is a testament to her expertise. Beyond this, she has a big heart and cares for every dog as if it were her own. I am proud to call her a friend.
Breeder FORZA DI GRAVITA
An experienced handler who showcases dogs of various breeds, Valeria knows countless important details that may escape a beginner, and actually not just a beginner . A true master of dog knowledge, genuinely a ‘guru’ in handling and working with dogs. With remarkable skill, she highlights every dog’s strengths, presenting them in the best possible light. Her professional approach and exceptional care for the dogs stand out! She is kind to her dogs yet capable of managing any breed and temperament - a rare skill that not every handler possesses. Open and approachable, she makes communication easy and enjoyable.
Stepping into the ring with the confidence of a winner, she works with poise and ease. Her appearance is striking and captivating.
You can trust her with your pet even for long terms or trips.
Valeria and my Cane Corso, Askania, who have participated in over 90 shows, are a duo that’s impossible to look away from. All our victories are the result of the professional preparation by the outstanding handler Valeria Nikitina. I’m very glad to know her and have had the pleasure of a long-lasting partnership.
Highly recommend!
Dog Owner, Breeder
Our first meet was at dog show when my handler let me down. Valeria stepped without hesitation to help me.
From that day, we have built friendly and professional relationship. I never met more responsible person. I can trust Valeria completely with my dogs and puppies, their trainings and health.
Even we are far apart, I discuss all questions about my dogs with her online. Every time, I feel thankful that fate bring us together.

Breeder and owner of kennel "Kurazh Elit"
Valeria is an incredible person whom I have known for over 20 years. She raised my dogs, who went on to become champions of many countries and even international champions.
Valeria is constantly learning to better understand the needs of dogs. There have been many moments when she found the right solutions in very difficult, stressful, and unpredictable situations.
I can trust her without hesitation to handle my dogs during multi-day trips to shows.
FCI Judge. Breeder of Alaskan Malamutes "Northern Sunrise Kennel"
A wonderful person and a top-class specialist in all areas related to dogs. I have known Valeria as a handler for many years. To successfully present a dog at a show, one needs not only handling skills but also the ability to earn the dog’s trust and build an almost partnership-like relationship. Valeria excels at this. Her genuine love and care for dogs go hand in hand with her professional expertise.
Her veterinary education, personal experience in raising puppies, and caring for her own dogs further enhance her value as a specialist. Valeria is one of the few people I would entrust my dog to without hesitation.
Kennel Miniature Bull Terriers "Venturesome"
Reputation in the cynology world precedes a person. Over more than 20 years, Valeria has earned an impeccable reputation.
Throughout these years, I have had the opportunity to observe her work and growth. Her dogs always look outstanding at shows: healthy, active, and motivated to perform. The animals Valeria trains and presents share an incredible bond with her — they literally understand each other at a glance.
People at shows only see the tip of the iceberg — a well-presented dog showcased by a handler. However, few realize the immense work that happens behind the scenes. A handler is not just someone who presents dogs at shows.
A great handler provides comprehensive support to dog owners, offering consultations on health, nutrition, and physical development. A champion dog is not just anatomically correct but also healthy, both physically and mentally. Valeria knows exactly how to achieve such results.
Breeder, Chihua Kennel in Ukraine
I have turned to Valeria several times for help, as I have many dogs. Working with her has always been both productive and professional. I especially want to highlight her expertise and willingness to assist.
Owner of Champion Kerry Blue Terriers
Valeria knows dogs from molecular level ( as a biologist) to their behaviour and psychology. More importantly she really loves dogs, not instrumentalises them. l've been observing her personal and
professional grows over 20 years and she is probably the only person whom I would trust my dog's training, especially if there is a problem.
Breeder and owner of kennel Pocket Hero (SBT)
I took the EazyDogMe training course to improve my skills in a dog handling. The course provided knowledge of dog handling and fundamentals of canine psychology and physiology. With the help of this training now I show the my dogs on my own and they get good results! Thanks to EazyDogMe and Valeria Nikitina!
Doberman Breeder
Great dog trainer. A great teacher for people. Valeria's master classes are always an unforgettable experience. All her work is built on mutual respect, politeness, sensitivity. Every time she picked up my dog, I knew he would be comfortable and easy with her.
FCI Judge. Breeder and Owner Kennel "Vanbox"
As a dog judge, I have seen Valeria many times at shows in rings. I always noticed her perfect contact with dogs, based on trust and teamwork, not fear. It shows that she prepares dogs very professionally, with knowledge of dog psychology, anatomy, and breed characteristics. Because of all this, I can highly recommend Valeria as an excellent trainer and handler.
Breeder of Miniature Bull Terriers, Terra Viva Kennel
I highly recommend Valeria to anyone who wants to build a strong connection with their dog, have a well-behaved and polite four-legged friend, or prepare their pet for shows and dog sports competitions. I urge you to take the choice of a specialist seriously, someone who can help you establish perfect communication with your pet, rather than trusting just anyone. Turn to a proven professional like Valeria to avoid regretting lost time and missed opportunities.
Valeria’s professionalism, extensive experience, passion for her work, honesty, responsibility, and intelligence make her an ideal choice for both first-time dog owners and those who already have experience but face challenges they cannot resolve on their own.
I have significant experience in cynology—our family has lived with dogs for 25 years, and I’ve been professionally breeding for 20 years. Yet, even with my expertise, I’ve sought Valeria’s help multiple times for certain issues. Each time, I was impressed by the effective results we achieved through our collaboration.
Owner of a Kerry Blue Terrier
I know Valeria Nikitina as an excellent handler, attentive veterinarian, and simply a wonderful person. I am immensely grateful to her for my Kerry. Thanks to Valeria, we started training, then began our show career, and eventually welcomed the long-awaited puppies.
Throughout this time, despite the distance, Valeria was always there to support us with her advice. She taught us to better understand our dog. I can confidently say she’s one of those people you can truly rely on, no matter what.
Her professionalism, constant growth, and desire for improvement command great respect and are truly inspiring.
Owner of the Cane Corso Champion Nostre Speranze Paola
Valeria worked with my dog and prepared her for shows both in Ukraine and abroad. I chose her because of her professionalism and her special approach to the Cane Corso breed. While I know she is competent with all breeds, when it comes to Cane Corso, she has no equal.
Additionally, she has been in cynology for many years and has an individual approach to every dog. Her love for animals even led her to become a veterinarian, which has been invaluable during trips when no clinics were nearby.
I highly recommend her as a true professional in working with dogs and can confidently call her an expert in canine care!
Breeder and Owner of the ‘Quasar Show’ Kennel

Thanks to her advice, I’ve gained a much deeper understanding of my dogs, and now they are true stars.
I deeply value her support and friendship!
