Safety, trust & environment

My pets, and soon to be yours hopefully, always have my undivided attention! I love taking my dogs for hikes, long walks, dog parks and anything to get them socialized, exercised and happy! My cats are basically treated like royalty in my home. Anything you pet needs, I will be there to provide it!

Information Natalie B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special care that is required (medicine administration, special diets, socializing issues) so I can ensure your pet is safe and cared for

A typical day

I know every pet is unique and therefore needs unique care and attention. Once we have established your expectations, I will exceed them. My aim is to ensure your pet is comfortable and happy and to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I will treat your pet as my own. If they need a 3 mile walk or hike, I’m your girl. If your dog prefers to be in the comfort of their own home, I’ll be sure to keep them engaged. Have a cat that just needs a constant cuddle buddy? I’ll be there with open arms.

I’ll love your pet like my own!

Pet care experience

From reptiles to dogs, I am an animal lover through and through! I have 4 of my own fur babies (2 dogs & 2 cats) and still have so much love and care to give to yours! I am affectionately known as “auntie” to my friend’s fur babies and will not hesitate to help any animal in need. From fostering & socializing kittens, to stopping on the freeway to save a kitten stuck in barbed wire (spoiler: I adopted her), to helping a lost dog find her home, and to finding and transporting an injured baby crow to a Wildlife Hospital, my dedication to animals is unmatched. Your pet will always be in kind and loving hands with me!

Natalie was amazing! She took great care of the dogs, including a troublesome puppy, and was super respectful of the house, the schedule, and our time! She took the request last-minute which was great and she was flexible and experienced with handling my dogs’ varying energy levels. She also contacted me right away when there was an issue and handled it like a pro! Would definitely book again & recommend.
