Pet care experience

Your Pup’s New Playdate Buddy!

I have always had a dog growing up, so I learned from a very young age how to care for a pet. Friends and family have trusted me to take care of their dogs since I was around 12 years old. This includes stopping in the house to take them to the bathroom and feeding them, as well as giving medication if needed. Lots of snuggles and playtime too of course! I have taken care of dogs in the client's home for up to a week and cared for them at my home as well. No need to worry about any complex feeding schedules. I can manage it all. I am very comfortable with any age, breed, and sized dog! I have a one-year-old pup, so I am very familiar with training and puppy classes. I have volunteered at the humane society and when I was in high school, I job shadowed at a veterinary clinic.

Biscuit loved his time with Natalie! He was spoiled every day! We received daily updates and pictures. We will definitely be rebooking.

Natalie did great with our dog for drop in visits. She took great care of her! It was our first time using this app, and she was patient with us while we adjusted to it. I would book her again in the future.

We had a good experience with Natalie during our dog's stay. She has a very large fenced yard that allowed our high energy pup to get her zoomies out regularly. She seemed very detail oriented, and took notes when we discussed various things about our dog's care prior to her drop off. We would certainly book again with Natalie!

Not only is Natalie a natural with animals, she is the kindest human as well! Dogs just sense her loving nature and organically gravitate to her. She will take the time to give your dog the attention it needs whether it is extra snuggle time or exercise. Do not hesitate to leave your pups in Natalie's care - she is the BEST!!!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space for some off leash playtime! My dog loves to run around playing fetch with a ball or stick. I have a walking path across the street from my home and am walking distance to nature hill for some extra exercise. I always have water, waste bags and small treats with me when going on walks. (My dogs personal favorites are cheerios). I am comfortable walking with any leash, collar or harness. I have two kennels in my living room if your dog needs to be crated. At least one crate is big enough to fit a large or XL dog. I have a baby gate in front of my stairs, and the basement door is always shut. I personally love going to the pet store or drive thru to get my pet a pup cup! I would be more than happy to take your dog for an adventure and for some extra love and enrichment!
