Pet care experience
Hi, I am Natalia and I am a full time stay at home mom, therefore I am very flexible in my availability. At the moment, my family and I can’t keep a dog of our own, but dog-sitting lets us scratch that pet-owner itch. My toddler daughters love dogs as much as I do, so if you choose us to care for your dog, we’re all sure to have a wonderful time! My husband, daughters, and I live in a townhouse in Pembroke Pines. We’ve set up our home so that it will be perfect for a dog to roam around and play. There’s lots of space outside for dogs to run and go for walks, and we have an amazing dog park just five minutes away. My husband grew up on a ranch with lots of different animals and took care of several dogs in his life, while I used to own a Yorkie, who I loved with all my heart. Since I will be home all day with your dog, I will be sure to give them everything they need. I treat puppies like little babies and give them all the love and attention they need. I’ll keep in contact with you throughout your dog’s stay, and I will try to capture the best moments of the day to share with you. I can take your pup out for a nice walk at least 4-5 times a day as we go out for a stroll with my daughter daily. You puppy will also never bee left alone for an extended periods of time and will be bathed in constant love and care! I’m excited to meet you and your dog—contact me today!

How lucky I and my dog are to meet Natalia! I contacted Natalia a night before my unexpected 10-day international trip (Asian country, family issues). I was panic extremely because my 11 years dog had never been left with a sitter for more than a day. NEVER! I couldn't do it because she is extremely protective (herself). I am not a proud dog owner because she bit nurses and another Rover dog walker two weeks ago (that was the first time I used Rover service). I thought that I cannot use Rover anymore. But I had no choice this time. I chose Natalia among others because of many reasons. She responded to my contact promptly and concerned about my family issues like her family (likely because her family is also multi-cultural). One thing I particularly liked was her attitude to a problematic dog like mine. During our first communication, I noticed that she was not overly confident but accepted the fact that she might need different approaches. I can now tell that (as we can read in her bio) she uses each sitting as a learning opportunity. She truly did because she followed my instructions but patiently found a better way to take care of my dog. For example, Natalia found that my dog trusted her husband (male) than others (female), which I forgot to tell her. He helped put a leash on my dog for the entire 10 days. Natalia also found that my dog wants to be petted only at night. Natalia also found that my dog needs help when jumping onto a sofa NOT out of a sofa. Natalia also found that my dog behaves better to children than adults. I am not proud this --> Natalia also found that my dog ate better when Natalia fed her by hand (it was a secret!!!). During my trip, Natalia updated daily, which I believe others do; however, her updates made my wife and I cried twice. Natalia not only told her troubles with my dog but also explained how Natalia overcome. When I pick up my dog today, her children cried as we were taking her new friend. Need I say more?
Natalia was great, so great we re-booked, and plan to re-book again next weekend. It is so great knowing our dog is happy, in a home with a family who adore him, and is so close to our home that he is comfortable and familiar with his surroundings. He loves to cuddle, and Natalia's little girls are affectionate with him, so it is great! Natalia is easy to contact and communicates well about him while we are away. She sends pictures, and it is great to know he is alright while I am away.
Natalia is great! I think my pup had really good time with her family. I would recommend anybody who’s looking for a sitter.
Natalia and her family took good care of our dog Bella. She was easily reached anytime of the day we called including before we booked and even after we picked up our dog after the stay. The pictures and email messages made our whole trip away from our doggie a much more enjoyable and relaxing time. Knowing she was home with the dog and her two kids most of the day instead of just using her house as a temp kennel was a big plus. Bella got treated like family and was walked more than she is accustomed to with us since we have a hectic work schedule when we are home. Everyone had a good vacation especially our baby girl Bella. Thanks Natalia!!

Information Natalia K. would like to know about your pet
I will have questions for you after we first connect, but I'd love to know the following: -How does your dog get along with children? -What are the house rules? - How can I make your dog's stay great? -What are your expectations for the stay?
A typical day
Life with a toddler means I maintain a rather fixed schedule. We would start with breakfast, then have play time, followed by a walk around the neighborhood or in the dog park. We’d then return for lunch and take a nap. After that, we’d have a little snack followed by more play time. We’d wrap up our evening with a nice dinner before heading to bed.
