Pet care experience

All-Around Animal Lover!

I have been pet-sitting for friends and family for about 8 years and have worked in pet care for 4. I worked as a dog handler/attendant ata a dog boarding, daycare, and training facility where I cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels (along with the resident ranch cat). I also worked as an Animal Care Specialist at a pet store where I gained experience in taking care of fish, small animals, birds, and reptiles.

Safety, trust & environment

I respect all rules set for the home and/or pets I'm caring for and will keep the space neat and tidy. I treat every animal like they're my own while respecting the boundaries and expectations set by pet parents! I love going on walks and spending my day hanging around animals.

Natalie was amazing! She was very responsive and communicative, and she was so good with our pups. She was respectful of our home and followed our schedule and instructions for the pups so well. Our dogs loved her, and you can tell she has a lot of experience with dogs of all types. We have three rescues, each with a very different personality, but that didn't phase her at all! We would definitely book Natalie again!

Hello, I'm Natalie's father. Let me begin by saying that I don't think you will ever find someone as qualified as Natalie for pet care. Growing up, Natalie was limited to reptile and fish pets due to my allergies, but she always doted on them. She has many years of experience directly caring for her own lizard buddies and is well aware of their needs for UV, heat, vitamins, and special diet. As she got older, Natalie would frequently pet-sit for friends and family, taking care of dogs and cats as well as other critters. She was highly sought after for these duties and kept busy weekends with many word of mouth referrals. Natalie's love for pets translated into the workforce when she took part-time jobs in pet care while attending college at the University of Iowa. She worked with dogs at a dog boarding business, Pack Amo, in Riverside Iowa. She also worked directly with customers at Petco in Iowa City. She only left these jobs when she moved to Colorado. In addition to pets, Natalie is also a great caregiver to people! In high school, she worked for and achieved a CNA certification. She worked with the elderly here in Dubuque and is currently working as a nanny for her cousin in Glenwood Springs. In short, Natalie has always been a caregiver and is no stranger to working with the public. I know she'll make a great addition to your team!

Natalie is definitely one of the most devoted pet parents I know. She does thorough research and uses that time and effort to give the best care to animals. With such a wide knowledge of different pets, I would trust her with any of my animal family!
