Pet care experience

*~*I do have a cat, he is okay with dogs but please do not request booking if your dog is not okay with cats, or if they have not been around cats*~* It can be unnerving leaving your dog with anyone while you are away. I have years experience in the doggy industry, from boarding to training, and working in groom shops and at home boarding! I live in a house in Hutto, with my son and my boyfriend, my cat Louie, and my two dogs. It has a big wooden privacy fence, so no escapes, and they have tons of room to run around and play!! I work from home running my own online shop, so I will be here 24/7 unless I need to run a quick errand. I have a Great Pyrenees and I also have a shirt hair border collie. They all love other dogs, and are used to visitors! From working in kennels, and dog training I do like to keep somewhat of a schedule, so your dog would be on a routine while here, which helps ease anxiety from being away from mom and dad sometimes. If you have a schedule or routine at home, just let me know and I can continue that while they are here. Your furry friend would be allowed to sleep or lay anywhere they please. I'm also experienced in dealing with anxiety, behavior issues, and storm phobia. I'm experienced in administering most any medication BUT PLEASE LET ME KNOW AHEAD OF TIME BEFORE BOOKING. PLEASE bring your own food, I don't like messing with their diets and giving them tummy aches..or having to clean up after said tummy aches... If your dog runs out of food while here, I will be more than happy to run out and grab more of the kind they eat, and will need you to reimburse me upon pick up. IF they get upset stomach from stress we can discuss giving them rice I have here, or pumpkin or whatever you'd like done. PLEASE LEAVE ME A NUMBER TO REACH YOU IF NEEDED AND AN EMERGENCY CONTACT WHO IS IN THE AREA. A number you will definitely answer and check regularly. You are more than welcome to bring treats and toys, and a bed or blanket, but any items that are brought I will not be held liable if they aren't in mint condition when picked back up, we have lots of friends here and accidents happen even though I try my best to make sure your items are not damaged. **** Please, again, bring their own food, and any special directions in writing. ****

Natalie was able to watch our dog on short notice for the weekend. She enjoyed her stay very much!

Natalie was great! She always got back to me right away when ever I messaged her. She had good information and obviously knows a lot about dogs. I’m so happy I found a dog sitter I can trust.

This is the third time we left our dogs with Natalie, and as always she took great care of them. She was very attentive to our female puppy who just finished her heat, and we really appreciated that. She is super flexible with scheduling pickup and drop-off times. Will definitely use her services again and highly recommend her for any dog sitting needs!

Information Natalie J. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences. I have a child so the dog I am sitting needs to be okay with children and other dogs obviously. I'd also like to know ANY and ALL medications, ailments, allergies, disorders, phobias ect. So I can be prepared to deal with, and/or treat. Age and if the dog has any special needs, if so I need it in writing. WRITE DOWN any directions for medications. Bring the dogs normal food, and write down feeding instructions.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks I have a big back yard! So we play outside and go potty there. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Where ever they decide is most comfy. The couch, the floor, even in bed with me if they like. You are also more than welcome, and possibly urged to bring a bed or blanket their familiar with from home. Time I'll spend with your dog All I can!
