Care to stay while you're away
Pet care experience
I have grown up living in an animal family. I am a big dog lover. I have watched my parents dogs (two Pomeranians and a very timid medium sized mix breed) while they travel on 3 week vacations twice a year. I have not yet experienced watching a strangers dog, but I am excited to gain that experience caring for different breeds and personalities. The best way that I will communicate with owners is through the Rover app, text messages/phone calls, and the Map My Walk app so that you are able to see where your furry babies and I have walked to. While I am caring for your dog and there is a specific daily routine that you have and want to make sure that I follow, let me know so I am able to keep them on their schedule. My typical daily routine for watching my parents dogs is to feed them in the morning, go on an at least 30 minute walk, I will them out side 3 to five times during the day, give them their nightly feeding, let them outside one last time before going to bed. I am available at all hours of the day. I am a recent collage graduate still looking for a full time job. I will have a lot a free time to care for furry friends in the time being.
Reviews
Natalie has been great with Gabby! She's friendly and loves to visit with Gabby. I always come home to a happy puppy face, and no destruction from doggie-anxiety! :D
Natalie has been wonderful! Very positive and very friendly. It's lovely to come home to a happy puppy after her visits, and no more tearing the house apart! :D Yay! Success!

A typical day
When I go on walks, I will look to see what parks there are in the area that we could walk to. If the dog I am watch is good with other dog and there is a dog park close to the home, I would let him/her play and socialize with other dogs.
