I can't recommend Natalie highly enough for anyone in need of pet care! They looked after my beloved cat with such love, attention, and expertise while I was away. From the moment I met them, I felt reassured by their genuine passion for animals. Throughout their time with my cat, they provided regular updates, which eased any worries I had about being away from my furry friend. It was clear that they took their responsibilities seriously. I appreciate their professionalism, reliability, and the peace of mind they gave me during my time away. I will certainly be reaching out to them again for any future pet-sitting needs and would encourage anyone else to do the same. Thank you, Natalie, for your outstanding service!

Natalie absolutely loved and cared for our kitty Bella, as if she were her own. My normally nervous kitty felt very comfortable around her. I will definitely be using Natalie again in the future.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I offer a trustworthy, stress-free environment where your pets feel secure and loved while you’re away. With years of experience and a deep love for animals, I treat every pet like family—because peace of mind starts with knowing they’re in caring hands. I also offer a complimentary meet and greet to get to know you and your pet, answer any questions, and ensure the perfect fit before services begin.

Information Natalie B. would like to know about your pet

To provide the best care possible, I like to learn all about your pet before sitting. Here are a few key things I always ask: • Daily Routine: Feeding schedule, playtime, litter box habits, walks, etc. • Personality & Preferences: Shy or social? Loves cuddles or prefers space? Favorite toys or activities? • Medical Needs: Allergies, medications, special diets, or past health issues. • Behavioral Notes: Any quirks, anxieties, or things that might trigger stress (like vacuums, doorbells, etc.). • Emergency Contacts: Your vet info and a backup contact in case I can’t reach you. • House Rules: Are they allowed on the couch? Any rooms off-limits? Knowing these details helps me keep your pet safe, happy, and feeling at home while you’re away!

A typical day

Every pet deserves a little fun while you’re away! I tailor activities based on your pet’s personality, energy level, and favorite things. Here are some of the ways we spend our time: • Interactive Play: Wand toys, feather chasers, laser pointers, or fetch—whatever gets those tails wagging or purring! • Cuddle Time: For the snuggle lovers, there’s plenty of lap time, chin scratches, and cozy companionship. • Enrichment Games: Puzzle feeders, treat hide-and-seek, and new toys to keep curious minds stimulated. • Outdoor Time: For pets who enjoy the outdoors (and with your approval), we enjoy safe time in the yard or a short, relaxing walk. • Calm & Comfort: Soft music, gentle brushing, or just sitting nearby for pets who prefer quiet company. Every visit is about fun, comfort, and keeping your pet happy until you’re back home.
