Better Life for Your Dog – Happier Life for You

Valeriia Nikitina

My mission is to teach dog owners how to raise happy, healthy pets by sharing essential knowledge about dog health, care, and communication.

From an early age, I’ve been passionate about helping people better understand and care for their pets. Over the years, I’ve seen countless mistakes made by loving pet owners—often simply due to a lack of knowledge or underestimating the risks involved in improper care.

Whether it’s building a deeper connection with your dog, understanding their needs, or ensuring their well-being, I’m here to guide you every step of the way. Together, we can create a world where every dog thrives, and every owner feels confident in providing the best care possible.

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.

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.
