Natali took great care of our friendly dog and shy cat! She was communicative and responsive throughout, and we felt very comfortable having her stay in our home with our pets while we were away. She was attentive to our pets' veterinary history and put our minds at ease that they would be monitored for anything out of the ordinary. We won't hesitate to ask Natali to look after our pets again!

It was great working with Natali! She was kind, punctual, and thorough. My pup, Kahlo, warmed right up to her and enjoyed their playtime. Kahlo is looking forward to having Natali drop in again!

Natali was responsive, communicative and dedicated to taking the best care of my giant furry babies. She was able to fill a gap when our regular dog sitter went out of town. We will happily contact her for help in the future!

My dog had major CCL surgery. The first 4 weeks after surgery are critical for their healing. Unfortunately, I had to leave town for the 4th week of that healing time. I was worried. Then I found Natali on Rover. I talked with her , and met with her, and felt confident hiring her to stay at our house and watch Velvet while we were gone. She is so wonderful. My dog, who has stranger danger worries, loved her as much as we all do. She gave me nice updates and responded quickly every time I reached out to her. I will call Natali first every time I need someone to help me out with Velvet!

Natali was a great dog sitter and I would definitely use her again! She was very professional and took great care of my fur babies and my house. She provided me with multiple updates and pictures. I would highly recommend Natali!

We are so thankful that we found Natali! She took such wonderful care of both of our dogs and kept in touch with us throughout the weekend (even sending cute pictures of them to us). We can’t wait to have her sit for them again. Would highly recommend.

Safety, trust & environment

As a veterinarian, I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and boundaries. I follow all care instructions closely, maintain a clean and secure environment, supervise pets carefully, and remain attentive to any changes in their health or behavior.

A typical day

I tailor each day to your pet’s personality and energy level. Activities may include walks, playtime, mental enrichment, exploring the neighborhood, and plenty of affection and relaxation. For cats, I provide interactive play, enrichment, and attention according to their comfort level.
