Dog Walking Balm

About: I have extensive experience caring for pets and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I have taken care of multiple pets for friends, neighbors, and family members, including feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I am attentive to each pet’s needs and make sure they receive the care, patience, and attention they deserve. In addition to pet care, I previously worked in childcare with RCMA, where I learned strong responsibility, supervision, and safety skills. My background in customer service has also helped me develop great communication and reliability when working with families. I am dependable, patient, and passionate about providing loving care for pets so owners can feel confident their animals are in good hands. I’m currently doing online school so I would plan my schedule to allow time for feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins so pets receive consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. I’m organized and dependable, which helps me maintain a routine that keeps pets happy, active, and safe. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I carefully follow feeding schedules, provide walks and playtime, and make sure pets have plenty of attention and supervision. I always keep the environment clean, safe, and comfortable while respecting the owner’s home and instructions. I also make sure doors, gates, and outdoor areas are secure so pets stay safe at all times. My goal is to create a calm, trustworthy environment where pets feel relaxed and owners feel confident their pets are in good hands. 🐶🐱

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life which has allowed me to care for puppies to senior dogs on a daily basis with ease. I’m currently a full-time student in mostly online courses, which leaves plenty of time to play, walk, watch, and snuggle all of your pets with enthusiasm. I will treat your pets as if they were my own and provide plenty of love and care with lots of play time and potty breaks whether that be in a fenced yard or out on a walk.

“Shayla has been absolutely amazing with my dog! I’ve had to make a few last-minute requests, and she has always been so accommodating and comes through for me every time. She’s reliable, caring, and very communicative, which I really appreciate. I love that she keeps me updated and sends pictures during the walks—it gives me so much peace of mind knowing my dog is being well taken care of. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can trust and feel completely comfortable leaving my fur baby with. I highly recommend her.”

About: Pets have always been an important part of my life. It’s easier for me to enjoy vacations knowing my furry friends are cared for by a sitter in their own home & I’m excited to offer you the same peace of mind. I have experience with cats, dogs, reptiles, & aquariums (additional fees apply—message me for rates if you have aquariums/reptiles you’d like me to check on while you are away. Also willing to water plants! I am available for in-house sitting or drop by. I do have appointments, volunteering, and occasional work on some days of the week, so let me know if you need a sitter in house at all times or if your pet is able to spend a few hours solo. For each client, I'll take into account your needs and my schedule to determine if it is a good fit for both of us and, of course, your furry friend! I am able to accommodate medication administration/particular needs if you show me what is needed. I can also keep up any training you are working on with your pet while you are away. Care can be customized to your pet’s needs during an initial visit. I am available to stay in-home for overnight stays. Please let me know if your pet needs someone on-site at all times or if they are able to be left alone at times and for how long.

About: Hi! With over 20 years of experience as a dedicated dog owner, I provide a level of care that goes far beyond the basics. I have raised dogs from the energetic puppy stages through to the specialized needs of senior care. Whether your companion is a toy breed or an XL giant, I am comfortable and confident in managing their unique temperaments and physical needs. Specialized Skills: • Medical Care: I am experienced in administering medications and managing "doggy diapers" for senior pets or those with mobility issues. • Availability for Constant Supervision: I work from home full-time, meaning your dog will never be left alone for long periods. • Total Flexibility: My schedule allows for last-minute requests and consistent updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I treat every dog in my care exactly like my own with patience, attention, and a lot of heart. Because I work from home full-time, pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily life rather than being a side task. I have the unique flexibility to step away from my desk for midday walks and drop-in visits when your pet needs them most. My schedule is not '9-to-5,' which allows me to be highly reliable for consistent daily routines and remarkably responsive to last-minute requests or schedule changes that may arise during your busy work week. My flexible schedule also allows me to easily accommodate specific feeding times, medication windows, and last-minute booking requests. I treat your home with the utmost respect, strictly following all security protocols and ensuring your property is locked and safe before I leave. I’ll stay focused and vigilant during walks to ensure your pet’s safety and situational comfort. I am comfortable managing specialized medical needs, including administering medications and providing patient care for seniors or puppies. You can expect reliable communication and detailed photo updates from every visit so you have total peace of mind that your pet is being cared for like my own.

“Natela is incredibly reliable and trustworthy. She's been walking my dog every day over the noon hour, as I am not able to make it home due to work. I come home to a happy puppy each night and I know it's because Natela does such a great job handling her. It's relieving to know that I never have to worry about leaving Natela in charge of watching over my dog and I love the updates and pictures she frequently sends me during their time together. I could tell the very first time that I introduced Natela to my dog that she was going to treat her as if she were her own, which was very comforting to me. I am beyond thankful for the help Natela has been providing me and I look forward to continuing to work with her! ”
