*Please select “Read All” to read additional important details regarding booking - thank you!* Thanks for stopping by - I'm happy to tell you more about myself and my love for pups! I have worked for the past 6 years at a fresh food dog company called The Farmer's Dog where we're dedicated to improving the lives of pups throughout the US with fresh, human-grade food (don't forget to ask me for my discount code for a free trial!). I currently work full-time remotely and have a rough collie named Heather, as well as three cats named Bat, Ash, and Tybalt. I’ve lived and been around dogs my whole life and have recognized their important role in harvesting empathy, compassion, and patience in all of us, and would love to open my home to any pups needing a temporary vacation home/daycare.

Natalie is the very best puppy sitter we've ever had! This is the second time Coco stayed with her and all the photos show my little furry girl with a big smile. Coco has a special diet and Natalie made sure she ate her food and supplements. Coco loves her friendly collie like a sister. FIVE STARS aren't enough!

We were able to arrange a meeting with Natalie before she stopped by for Zuko and she was such a pleasure to meet. It is clear how much she cares for the animals she looks after. She was so good with Zu and he was happy, had his water full and we got great reports back. We will definitely book again!

Schedule

I currently work full-time but remotely, so I am home all day and your pup will rarely be left alone! I also have a rough collie puppy who loves all guests (canine and humans alike).

Safety, trust & environment

I am dog and cat first aid/CPR certified through the American Red Cross. I have a board on board fenced in yard with secure latches on each door. It is a newly installed fence so it is in mint condition and very sturdy. All plants in the home are pet safe and we also keep a baby gate between the kitchen and the rest of the home to ensure optimal safety.

Pets

A typical day

The pups I care for love playing with Heather in our backyard! I have lots of toys available at their disposal and will take them along on walks. Heather is an incredibly playful, sweet dog who loves to make our guests feel at home. My house is their domain, so they'll enjoy relaxing on my couch, my bed, or the numerous dog beds I have around the house for them!

*PLEASE READ IN FULL* For the safety of my own pets and the others I care for, I request proof of vaccines prior to meet and greets! A photo or screenshot is just fine. I do accept multiple bookings at once (my max is 3 dogs at a time). I do ensure that all the dogs staying with me are sociable and well-behaved with other dogs beforehand through meet and greets. If you would like to request a private stay (meaning my dog would be the only other dog present), please let me know as I can accommodate this for an additional rate of $15 per day. I'd also like to confirm a few behavioral details to ensure I take necessary precautions if needed: 1) Is your pup/are your pups prone to knocking items/food off countertops/tables? 2) Is your pup/are your pups prone to sneaking into the trash? 3) Is your pup/are your pups prone to territorial marking/peeing when nervous? (If so, I please ask that you provide pee pads) . 4) Is your pup prone to digging/escaping under fences? 5) Is your pup prone to destructive behaviors when left alone? (I.e. chewing furniture, foreign objects, etc) . 6) Are there specific commands that are most effective for your pup(s)? (I.e. instead of "stop" you say "cut it out") Lastly, please note that pick-up and drop-off ranges are generally strict and I ask that any changes be communicated as soon as possible. That said, I do consider exceptions on a case by case basis. Any late pick-ups 15 minutes beyond the pick-up range will be subject to a late fee of $15. Separately, please note that if your dog is afraid of cats, I recommend choosing another sitter as I currently have 3! I also would love to know how they prefer to sleep and what their usual daily routine is like so I can match it as best as possible. If you have any additional specifications or questions, please don't hesitate to reach out via Rover and I'll be happy to answer them!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
