Highlights
Pet care experience
Here for the Kitties!
I'm a cat lady and yes; certifiable as crazy cat ladies go. I'm good with small to mid-sized dog breeds as well. Boarding is not a service I can provide - my homeowner's insurance forbids it. I have also found that 90% of the cats I've boarded were very stressed - they are territorial creatures and seem to do much better when they are on their own turf.

Safety, trust & environment
I carry a small kit bag of treats and toys for your cat. Finicky, stressed, non-eating cat? I carry tubes and a bag of senior kibble that most cats love. Catnip is home-grown and available on request. Kitties get fresh water at least 2X daily, litterboxes are scooped AM and PM.
Ratings and reviews
Natalie was great! I received updates with photos of my cat that I really appreciated. My cat is a very shy girl and I could tell from the pictures that my cat was really relaxed around Natalie. Next time I would ask Natalie again to cat sit for me.
We are so happy with Natalie's house sitting! We were concerned about finding care for our 2 week vacation when our normal sitter was not available. Luckily our stress was all taken away because Natalie did such a fantastic job looking after our two cats. She gave us regular updates and was able to administer an inhaler every day to our cat with asthma. Our cats were happy and relaxed when we returned and our home was very clean. Would not hesitate to book again.
Natalie was excellent - she understands cats and their particular behaviours and was quick to make a connection with Biggie. She was great at communicating and sent photos daily. She kept both my fur-baby and home in excellent condition. I'd be happy to have Natalie stay with Biggie again.
I was so happy with Natalie’s care of my cat. My cat doesn’t warm up to new people easily, and she doesn’t eat when she’s stressed but Natalie was giving her belly rubs and pats by the second day of caring for her and joy of joys got her eating too! I could relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my cat was happy, healthy and eating. Natalie is a true catwhisperer!
We were lucky to find Natalie, she was a fantastic pet sitter for our cat, sent many photos and videos and was very clean in our home. From the moment I met her I liked her and so did our cat. I would recommend Natalie to anyone and hope she will let sit for us again!
Natalie is a top tier pet sitter! So happy I booked with her, she was responsive and great at sending photos. She not only took exceptional care of our cat Winston, she left our place spotless. I have come home from a two week vacation, to a happy and very well looked after cat! So so so pleased with the care Natalie provided.

Schedule
I work full time M - F. If your cat is okay alone for 9 hours, we'll get along great. Weekends I am at home most of the time save for errands and grocery shopping.
