I work from home so I have a very flexible schedule! My routine with Goose is a 6:00 am potty break, an 11 am walk, a 4 pm walk, and two potty breaks in the evening. I would be willing to do more or less walks / potty breaks for your dog(s).

Information Natalie K. would like to know about your pet

How does your dog(s) get along with other dogs? My dog is very good with nervous dogs. Is your dog reactive on leash? Any strict eating restrictions?

A typical day

I love to keep busy dogs busy and nervous dogs at ease. If your dog needs its energy out, I love using the chuck it ball thrower or giving them numerous toys to keep them busy. If they are nervous dogs, I have tons of blankets and quiet rooms.

Pet care experience

Hi! I have cared for dogs and had them as part of my family for my entire life, from a reactive spit-fire Jack Russell Terrier to a gentle giant Saint Bernard. Currently, I have a five-year-old Golden Retriever named Goose. I love seeing him play and interact with other dogs. He does a great job of matching another dogs energy. Working from home allows me the time and flexibility to give dogs the love and attention they deserve. My yard is an entire acre where dogs can run, roll, and sniff around. Despite having such a large yard, I still make it a point to take dogs out for walks. Not only do they love the exercise, but it's something I enjoy too. My experience with different breeds and temperaments has taught me how to create a balanced environment where dogs can thrive, stay active, and be happy. Outside of my own home, I also volunteered at a humane society for over three years caring for cats, feeding animals, cleaning kennels, and walking dogs. It would be an honor to get to know a part of your family and ensure they having a wagging tail all day long :)

Natalie was super friendly and welcoming. The dogs enjoyed their stay and got along with her dog well. We will use her again for sure!

I am delighted to recommend Natalie. Her dedication, responsibility, and genuine love for animals shine through in every interaction. Whether it’s providing attentive care, maintaining a structured routine, or offering affectionate companionship, Natalie goes above and beyond to ensure pets are happy and healthy. Her compassionate nature and meticulous attention to detail make her the type of person you can leave your pet with and have great peace of mind. I wholeheartedly have trusted Natalie my dog and will continue to do so, knowing they will be in the best of hands.

Natalie has been caring for my pets for over twelve years. She has a great love for all creatures and has a special caregiving touch with dogs and cats. Natalie is dependable, highly-responsible and extremely loving with my two dogs and three cats whenever I entrust her with their care. She goes above and beyond when she cares for my dogs, taking them on long walks and spending a great deal of playtime with them during my absence. She also has extensive experience in caring for elderly or infirm dogs and cats who may need special medications or visits to the local veterinarian. In summary, I haven't ever had to worry about my treasured pets whenever they are in Natalie's care.
