Husband + Wife | Belly rub experts!

Pet care experience

Hello! We are Natalie + Daniel - a wife and husband team who recently moved to LA from Brooklyn, NY. We're event design and planning professionals who also own a small pet care business on the side. We are long-time cat owners, and Natalie specializes primarily in cat care. Daniel also works with dogs for walks and adventure hikes. He owned a dog walking and pet care business for 14 years in Brooklyn. He loves dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes and can’t wait to meet your furry buddies! ABOUT NATALIE Throughout my life, I've had pets in my household - cats, dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, fish, and lizards. Daniel and I currently own a large Ragamuffin and a little Tabby. While I always thought I was a dog person growing up, I adopted my 16-pound Ragamuffin, Sirius Grey, after someone abandoned him when he was three, and he is now a piece of my heart in a way no animal has ever been. I discovered that it was possible for a cat to actually be more loyal and affectionate than many dogs, and claim you wholeheartedly and unswervingly as their person. However, I adore all animals and have lifelong experience in the care of pets. As every pet owner is unique, I like to tailor each sitting experience to the owner and pet, so I'm happy to accommodate special requests and needs if you have them. If requested, I will send you photo updates of your pets via text. DANIEL Daniel has 14 years of professional pet care experience and plenty of amazing references. He owned a pet care business in Brooklyn until 2021, caring for cats and dogs locally, and taking dogs on adventure hikes upstate. As co-parent to both our cats (and the original parent of Picky Picklepuff, our Tabby), he is as much a cat person as a dog afficionado.

Daniel did great with our dog Stormy. Stormy is getting a bit older and requires the use of a cart for walks and Daniel managed his care without any issues. He seemed to be quite knowledgable about dogs with special needs which made us feel much better about booking him.

Nathalie and Daniel took such fantastic care of our pup Bruno, and our house, while we traveled for thanksgiving. It was our first time leaving our dog, and it was a really last minute request, but they took the time to do a quick meet and greet and made us feel really comfortable - also sent lots of pics! Highly recommend them for your pets :)

Safety, trust & environment

SAFETY, PRIVACY + YOUR HOME Due to the pet policy in our rental (that we've maxed out with our two cats), we are unable to board your animals at our home. However, we would LOVE to care for them in yours! We adhere to all standard safety protocols and appreciate advance warning should your pet be a known escape artist. In all our years of pet care, we have never had an escapee or safety issues, and are respectful of your home, your privacy, and your preferences.

Information Natalie F. would like to know about your pet

Please let us know if your pet has special needs such as regular medication. We would also appreciate a heads up if your pet is an escape artist or tends to be aggressive/skittish around other animals! Aside from that, it's always good for us to know your policy with treats and where you keep them.

A typical day

If your cat is active and enjoys play time or being brushed, we are happy to do so. Otherwise, we are known cuddlers and belly rub experts. Dogs get to go on interesting routes around the neighborhood or on hikes in Griffith Park - owner’s choice! (NOTE: Extra fees do apply for adventure hikes, as these are an hour+ long in nature, and include pick up and return.)

SCHEDULE Professionally, we own a design business. Our schedules allow us pockets of time throughout the day to care for your furry companions. However, as this is not our full-time business, we are unable to accept multiple drop-ins per day at the same location (unless you live within a few blocks of us). The majority of our repeat fur clients have been in our care for years. We take on a limited amount of regular clientele, so you can rest assured that if your pets are in our clowder or your dogs in our pack, they will receive the full attention they deserve, and you will rarely have to repeat instructions - even if we haven't visited in months. We remember and treat every pet in our care like they are part of our adopted family, and we look forward to meeting them... and you!
