I'm currently a full-time graduate student, so I have plenty of time to help take care of pets. While I have two cats of my own, I'm looking to spend more time with dogs and to help dog and cat owners alike with their busy schedules and lives.

Safety, trust & environment

I have two very easygoing cats of my own who have grown up with cats and dogs in their own foster homes prior to me adopting them. I've spent time volunteering at multiple Humane Societies across the country, and feel comfortable taking care of pets in their homes and familiar surroundings. I have a lot of love to give, and I'm more than excited to help share that love with pets in the Houston area.

Information Natalie I. would like to know about your pet

I want to take the time to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable. If you have special needs or wants for your pet, please let me know!

A typical day

Every pet is different, and I want to take the time to learn your pets to best support them during my stay! I’m happy to play with your pets, give them lots of love, or leave them alone if they would rather sit in comfortable silence. Whatever your pet needs, I’m more than happy to provide!

This is the first time I've used Rover, and Natalie made the experience very easy.She accepted my request on short notice and was always had a great attitude. She was very prompt about replying to texts and had no problems following my instructions to take care of our cat. I'd definitely recommend her to other cat owners.
