Information Natalie D. would like to know about your pet

What are your dog's typical routines (walking, nap time, feeding time)? Does your dog have allergies or is allergic to certain foods? What is your dog's behavior? Does your dog behave well with other dogs? Does your dog enjoy runs or walking?

A typical day

I'm a very active person so I visit parks frequently for running on the trails or leisurely time! Depending on the requests of the client, I would walk your dog within your neighborhood or parks in the area! Also, I would take your dog to the dog park and socialize with other dogs within the Orlando/Apopka area!

Pet care experience

Hello there! :) My name is Natalie! I've had dogs and cats my entire life. Growing up, I have helped take care of my own dogs and cats, as well as chickens, goats, and a miniature donkey! I have a lot of experience and knowledge in many different pets and walks of life! I also work at the local animal shelter as a veterinarian clinic supervisor and have gained necessary knowledge to ensure the health of your pets! I've petsat, housesat, and walked dogs multiple times before if you ever need references from my previously satisfied clients! I hope to be of assistance to you and your pup(s) while you're away! Be sure to ask about my promo code to save $20 off your booking! Thank you! :)

Natalie was fine. I really appreciated her accepting my last minute request! If you need strict arrival times I’m not sure it will be consistent (she came between 4:30pm and 9pm each day instead of the scheduled 6pm) but my cat was okay with that. There were a few instructions in my request that were missed but all minor (no shoes in the house, give treat daily, brush fur). She was also on the phone talking 100% of the pet sitting time but still kind of played with my cat during so not a huge issue.

Natalie does an amazing job, my kitty absolutely trusts her & enjoys her presence. Natalie is also amazingly communicative about your pet while she is looking after them & is extremely attentive; knowing she was watching my kitty while I was on a trip (on the other side kf the world) helped reassure me that there was nothing to worry about for my kitty-girl. I definitely highly recommend Natalie's services.

Unfortunately, my experience with Natalie was very disappointing. Before booking, I clearly explained that my senior dog needed visits between 9:00–9:30 AM and 6:00–6:30 PM. Natalie agreed to this schedule. However, during the first booking, she repeatedly arrived at times that were far outside the agreed window, sometimes as early as 5:00 AM and other times after 10:00 PM. Because my dog is a senior, I was very concerned about him having to wait so long between potty breaks and meals. When I brought this up, Natalie acknowledged the issue and said she would do better. Unfortunately, the situation did not improve. Believing in second chances, I hired her again. Before confirming the booking, I specifically asked whether she could reliably follow the schedule because of my dog’s age and needs. She assured me that she was off from her primary job and would have no problem meeting the agreed times. On the very first day of the second booking, she arrived at 10:32 AM for the morning visit and then did not return until nearly 11:00 PM for the evening visit, despite telling me around 6:00 PM that she was on her way. Reliability is one of the most important qualities in a pet sitter, especially when caring for senior pets who depend on a consistent routine. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend Natalie to pet owners who need their pets fed, walked, and cared for at the times that were agreed upon. If your pet requires a dependable schedule, particularly a senior dog, I would recommend looking elsewhere.
