5-star pup sitter in Denver Metro!
Pet care experience
***Attn: Due to changes in my corporate career, I will no longer be dog sitting in 2022 for new clients**** ————————————————————- Thanks for stopping by my Rover.com profile! About Me: I am in my 30s/non-smoker (including no marijuana use)/own no pets. An experienced and dedicated pet sitter for over ten years. Including 15+ years dedicated to delivering stellar customer service to consumers within various industries. When I'm not around the four-legged you can find me attending spin class 5+ days a week, spending quality time with my grandma, wandering crafts stores for my next DIY project or exploring Brass Armadillo to increase my vintage/antique collection. Outside my Rover gig, I hold a full-time job in the healthcare industry. I have been able to balance full time pet sitting and my career. My time management skills are on par! Background: I've been pup-obsessed since I was young and don't know a time without having a furry friend to come home to. After saying a heartfelt goodbye my cocker spaniel, Max (photos featured on my profile), in 2012 due to unforeseen sickness, my side hustle on Rover.com has given me a chance to fill that hole in my heart. I have found a true meaning behind my pet sitting; I pass on the love I had for my precious pup, Max, to my new four-legged friends! Type of services/expectations during my stay: My pet sitting experience has included long-term stays (2+ weeks), last minute overnight requests, handling sick (and/or older) pup clients, general home upkeep/cleaning and minor yard work. A day won't go by without contacting owners with texts & pictures updates to assure {human} clients that their pets are doing well at home. Summary: I always look forward meeting new pet owners. My goal on Rover.com is to grow our relationship for the long term and be your go-to pet sitter. There is no better feeling knowing that your pets are safe, healthy & spoiled rotten while you jet away. I look forward connecting with new Rover clients and discuss your pet sitting needs!

Reviews
Our little Maggie is a sweet, old Jack Russell who I don’t leave with just anyone. She requires a bit of extra love and care in her elder years and Natalie was amazing with her. Natalie took care of Mags (and our house) like we do. She also sent the cutest pictures and videos throughout the day, which put us at ease being away. Natalie is a true dog lover, extremely responsive and responsible, and very thoughtful on top of it all. She even left me a birthday card and gift as a welcome home surprise. I definitely recommend her for the Rover community.
Natalie went above and beyond to ensure our pup was cared for while we were out of town at our wedding. I’m not sure I’ve ever met a more thoughtful person… From the simple things like daily updates on our dog, to coming home to flowers and a card congratulating us on finally pulling off our wedding. She’s the best and I’m pretty sure our pup was sad when we came home and she wasn’t here. Thank you Natalie!!
Natalie is amazing! She stayed at my home for 5 days with my two high energy German Shorthairs and provided all the love and exercised that they needed and much more. One receives meds 3 times daily and has a special diet. She took care of other little things around the house that need daily care; mail, plants etc. She sent photos of the pups along with updates several times a day and she left me with a clean home and a lovely card when I arrived home. There's a reason she books out so far in advance and her clients keep coming back! Thank you so much Natalie! Dupree and Casey love having you here!
Natalie is theeeee best! We love having Natalie take care of our 2 pups. She sends tons of updates, leaves the house clean, and best of all, takes excellent and loving care of our two dogs!!

A typical day
I can't claim to be a professional photographer, my current pup clients can tell you that I have sent them some great photographic memories during my stay! *Due to legal/liability concerns, I don't bring any pup clients to dog parks or allowed to be off-leash. Thank you in advance for understanding.
