Highlights
Pet care experience
Wildlife Biologist, cat enthusiast
I have lived with cats my entire life, and own two currently. I regularly check on friends cats and dogs when they are out of town (for the past 10 years), so I am confident in my abilities to give your pets the attention they need while you're away. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with patience, attention, and respect. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, medication reminders, enrichment, or just some extra companionship while you're away, I’ll make sure they feel safe and cared for.

Safety, trust & environment
I have two cats and will generally not be accepting any stay-over visits at my own house. They are really friendly and love humans but other pets would be stressful for everyone!
Ratings and reviews
Natalie did an amazing job with my cat, who can be somewhat feisty and sweet at the same time. Every day I received pics of my cat, and a time in/out of the visit. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation without a worry.
Natalie was very communicative and responsible (even though I was out of service for most of my trip). She left the house clean and pets happy!
Natalie did a great job taking care of my little cat Maverick. I already booked her again!! Thank you Natalie!
Natalie was fantastic! Cared for our cats, even one that needed to be pilled daily and also feeding our fish. I really appreciate her attention to detail and the play time she gave the kitties!
Natalie was a total hit with Charlie our very shy cat. He warmed up to her the first visit and became fast friends. Charlie is almost 13 Natalie accommodated a slightly complicated diet, provided lots of play and attention and sent daily updates. Definitely will ask her to cat and house sit again!
Natalie is a wonderful house and pet caregiver. She took great care of our animals and was communicative and conscientious. We are already trying to rebook her for our next trip out of town.

Schedule
I work remotely as a postdoc for UAF and my schedule can be flexible to work with yours/your pets needs! I enjoy spending time outdoors, and I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, and active outings tailored to your pet’s needs. I’m reliable, communicative, and will always send updates so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
