Cat Lady. Doggo’s new best friend.
Pet care experience
I have always been blessed with multiple cats and lived with many dogs! I have been pet sitting and dogwalking in the Twin Cities regularly for the past seven years. I treasure being a calm and loving presence for cats and dogs who miss their families!
Reviews
Our animals love Natalie and we get the piece of mind that they are well taken care of while on vacation.
Natalie was the best. She is so knowledgeable and experienced, she totally put us at ease. One of our cats was sick while we were gone and she handled a new kidney related food regimen and meds with ease and gave us such peace of mind. Our cats and dog were enamored with her and followed her around like they were her shadows. We’d 100% recommend her, she is all about animals, it’s very evident with the care and attention she gives. Thank you Natalie!
Natalie kept us up to date on our dogs and cats. When we arrived home, while they were happy to see us, they didn’t seem very upset at us for leaving, so they clearly had a blast.
Natalie did a wonderful job taking care of her senior dog plus really great communication. Would definitely recommend and hope to have her watch our dog again!

Safety, trust & environment
I think it’s important to stick to your pet’s daily routine as closely as possible to minimize any stress they may have from your absence. I’m experienced in caring for elderly animals as well as the young ones! I am comfortable administering medication. And of course, I provide oodles of love, pets, scritches, and snuggles.
Information Natalie D. would like to know about your pet
I have experience administering both oral and injectable medication. I am experienced in helping older dogs go up and down stairs. I love the old ones!
A typical day
When staying in your home with your dog, I provide a minimum of four 30 minute walks per day. For kitties, I provide play time and pets throughout the day and night. I will spend as much time in your home as I can, however I am not able to provide “constant care” (pets who cannot be left alone). I can be scheduled for multiple drop-ins per day as well. I love to take dogs for walks to local parks and trails. I let them thoroughly sniff whatever interests them. We’re not in a hurry! Stop and smell the roses! I love to hang out with cats at their favorite windows and provide them with a calm and steady lap to nap upon.
