“Austin was a fantastic host for Calli! Daily photos and lots of updates gave me much comfort while I was away. Austin was great to communicate with, very clear and punctual!”
“Savanna was a great sitter and took wonderful care of my dog Franklin for an overnight. She communicated clearly and made sure to ask questions about his care and feeding. She sent lots of cute pics. Her home was a comfy place for Frank and she even had a ramp for her bed so pups can get up and down safely. I would definitely book with Savanna again.”
“Taylor and Tyler took amazing care of our dog Darcy! She had a lot of fun, and was in high spirits at pickup time. It was also really nice to get updates and photos from Taylor & Tyler during her stay. We'll definitely be back next time we're visiting the area. Thanks!”
“Rebekah was incredible with our Bella. She sent updates, took extremely good care of her, and made us feel comfortable and relaxed. Our Bella was just a puppy (and was in heat for the first time), and Rebekah took every step necessary to take care of her and make sure she was taken care of. Will definitely use her again!”
“Fantastic dog sitter! She is compassionate and takes fantastic care of your pet. My dog was happy and comfortable the entire time she was away and the level of care is even better than a professional facility. She even sends daily pictures and videos and that is great when missing your pup. Next time I need to leave my dog I will definitely be sending her back over Nathalias!!”
“Kathy treated our Pete like one of her own, we felt very comfortable knowing he was happy and being well taken care of. We will definitely leave Pete with Kathy again, we highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve been working in the veterinary field for 5 years. All my life I had a soft spot for animals. Big or small. I would be the perfect person to babysit ( yes I said baby sit because they are our fur babies ) your pet because your pet would have my FULL attention. I will treat your pet as if he or she was my own. Animals hold a special place in my heart. Every time I see one it’s like love at 1st sight. “When I look into the eyes of an animal, I do not see an animal, I see a living being, I see a friend, I feel a soul” I do work at a vet hospital, I will try to rearrange my schedule the best I can ! And when I’m not working I will be with your pet ! I will care for your pet as if he/she is my own. From experience I know pets get flustered when routines are messed up just like we do ! I will follow any routine you have so they don’t miss a beat.
“Kevin watched my 10 month old german shepherd Dax while i was on vacation! He sent pictures and videos everyday to keep me updated. Dax can get super energetic and crazy at times and Kevin was very patient with him! thank you so much, i really appreciate it 💜”
“Victoria was great with our dog Rosie. It was the first time we had ever left her with anyone. Victoria kept us posted with texts and pictures of how Rosie was doing which helped us feel comfortable being away. Rosie did great and loved playing with Victoria’s dog. We are using her again for our next vacation.”
“An enormous thank you to Michelle for her kindness and care of our aging Maggie. It was just a short week later that we discovered Maggie would have to be put down due to discovery of her advanced cancer. MIchelle provided a safe, loving environment for Maggie to visit when we needed some help. We are so gratefull and were touched by her compassion.”

Taylor and Ryan were wonderful. My Dogs were very happy and healthy when we picked them up. Taylor kept me well informed when were away as to how they were doing. The yard is perfect for dogs and I had now worries of them getting free. Taylor and Ryan made our vacation worry free. Sherrie
I recommend Michelle and Colin very highly. They were attentive and caring beyond my expectations. Michelle is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and has had years of experience working with them.
