I work a hybrid job and am in office 2x a week in Maple Grove. I tend to have the flexibility to pick which days and can almost always leave over my lunch hour to run back to your pets if need be! Additionally, I work as an actor, singer, and theatre director outside of my 9-5 so I might have rehearsals/performances that take me away from the house but I always make sure our schedules are compatible before booking. Constant care available for a 25% rate increase.

Safety, trust & environment

I am a very conscientious and safety minded person. I know that it is a risk to open your home to someone from the internet and is a lot to entrust them with the care of your family members. I don't take that responsibility lightly. Making sure your home and your pets are safe and well cared for is my priority.

Information Natalie D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know of any behaviors you're working on training and how to beat support that growth! I'd love to hear about all of your animals' little neuroses - What do they love? What gets them riled up? I want to help you provide them with consistency even while you're absent.

A typical day

I love engaging with animals however they like, whether that's cuddles, playtime, sniffing around the neighborhood or patrolling from their favorite window. I want to meet them where they are and have an enriching time on their terms.

Pet care experience

I've been hanging with cats and dogs since I was a teenager. I was the Friendly Neighborhood Baby/Dog/Cat/House Sitter and spent much of my adolescence caring for my community's animal companions. Despite not having any pets in the home during my childhood, I had lots of exposure to animals from a young age. I pet sat for my neighbors, friends, and family for many years and finally got some pets of my own in adulthood. I have house, crate, walk, and obedience trained two puppies and have had some experience retraining older pets and rescues. I have, unfortunately, also cared for an elderly cat through his passing and a terminally ill dog through his passing. I have been working professionally as a pet sitter for three years and have never felt more fulfilled! I'd love to meet you and your pets and provide excellent care for your loved ones!

Natalie stayed at our house for a week to care for our 6 month old kitten and our drama queen of a 2 year old dog. She was so patient and made accomodations for our anxious dog and "toddler" cat. Our house was well cared for and we had such great peace of mind being out of state for a week knowing she was there. We received a perfect amount of updates and pictures. Natalie was a total professional and we would highly recommend her.

Natalie was a fabulous sitter for our home and our cat, Mookie!! When we returned, the cat was calm and comfortable (is usually stressed and shedding a lot when we return from vacations) , the house was tidy, and Natalie regularly communicated with us/gave updates while we were gone. Highly recommend!

Natalie was great! She stayed with our pups for a week and they were so happy to see her! They had a great time and were well cared for. Would definitely use Natalie again! She sent pictures and updates and was a great communicator!
