I will treat your home and pet with the love and care I treat my own! Unfortunately I cannot have pets in my home, as my dog is very dog selective and likes to be a solo diva.

Information Natalie D. would like to know about your pet

It is important for me to know about your pet’s behavioral and physical needs, including any triggers or signs I should be on the look out for. The more information you give me, the more I will be able to successfully care for your companion, so don’t be hesitant to share details!

A typical day

I love providing both mental and physical engagement geared toward your pet’s specific needs and interests. Does your dog love a long walk? A quick pee and a snuggle session? Brain games and training tricks? Does one cat like to be left alone and the other is a stage 5 clinger? Count me in! I’m here for the ride!

Let Me Pamper Your Pet 💅🏼🐾

Pet care experience

I love animals and have had dogs and cats my entire life, including a feral kitten I rescued and a cat with severe mobility and neurological issues. I currently have a 6 year old 100 lb pit bull who I adore, but who has also taken me on a real behavioral training journey, so I have a lot of experience with unique behavioral needs and dog-aggressive dogs. My years of working with behavioral trainers has helped me become a patient, cautious, and confident pet owner and I will treat your pet with focus on their personal needs and strengths. I am adept at handling large dogs, working with puppies, and supporting a wide range of medical needs.

Natalie was so great with our two dogs. She sent photos and let us know how they were doing over the week. I would definitely book with her again.

Natalie did an amazing job caring for my cat. She was right on time for each visit and very communicative. I felt completely reassured that my cat was in good hands and I plan to continue having Natalie watch her in the future.

Natalie is the perfect catsitter! Reliable, kind, sends the best photos and seems to be as obsessed with my cats as I am. I felt so relaxed about going on my trip because I knew my cats and house were in responsible hands! Thanks, Natalie!

Natalie is everything you want in a pet sitter. She is reliable, communicative, and genuinely cares about the well being of my cats. She always goes above in beyond with how much attention she gives them. Also, she leaves my house in great shape. Mail brought in, cat dishes done, plants watered, and just a general thoughtfulness implemented where I can tell she did some tasks for me that I didn’t even ask for but needed doing. I’ve told her this before, but I always fully enjoy my vacations when she’s catsitting for me because I know my cats and home are being so well taken care of. She’s amazing!
