I give great walks and great hugs!!
Pet care experience
I've grown up with dogs my entire life, so I can confidently say I know a thing or two when it comes to caring for our four-legged family members. I have three dogs back home--I'm currently a university student in NYC--and I can't get enough of them. I remember when they each first joined the family, I promised my parents I would do all the dirty work: walks, poop duty, feeding, training, showering, cuddling, belly-rubs (or behind the ear for Pumpkin). Years later, even though right now I'm miles away, they're still my dogs, my best friends, and I love them with all my heart. I understand the work that comes with a dog, it's a responsibility looking after another living thing, but it can be the happiest and most rewarding experience ever. I have years of experience walking dogs of all sizes and all speeds; a Frenchie is a different walker from a Beagle, let me tell you. And if I can give a Chihuahua who hates water a nice bath, I can do almost anything. I'm pretty familiar with cuddling, too. Dogs need good cuddle time as much as they do walk time. I'm available Monday's, Wednesday's, and Friday's all day!
Reviews
Natalie was great!!! Very responsive and considerate of my home and when my plans changed last minute she was so helpful/understanding. Will definitely be using her again!!
Natalie did a fantastic job watching Peach, and was super flexible with my schedule changes. Thanks again, Natalie!
Natalie has been dog sitting my french bulldog Penny for the last 2 years every time I go out of town. Natalie is great with Penny and is really accommodating to Penny's needs (frenchies can be very needy). She shows a lot of care and attention to make sure Penny is loved, fed, and well taken care of. Natalie is a natural dog lover and she plays really well with Penny and takes her to the park often. Penny gets really excited every time she sees Natalie, so I know that they now have a special bond! Natalie is a responsible dog walker/sitter that loves watching dogs in her spare time and I would recommend her 1000%!
TRUST ME AND GO WITH NATALIE! Natalie is hands down one of the best dog caregiver that I've ever worked with. She is kind and trustworthy, and my dog LOVES Natalie whenever she cares for her. Natalie really works with me and my dog, and she comes with a positive attitude every time. I’ve never seen such personable dog sitter in the city, and I can tell that she dog sits because she genuinely loves dogs. I can never thank Natalie enough with the love that she’s shown to my dog and my family, and I will continue to work with her as long as I’m in New York City.

Information Natalie L. would like to know about your pet
No breed preferences! Obviously just the breed that likes people. (I have a Chihuahua at home, a little old lady named Pumpkin, and she loves me and only me. She's not particularly a fan of other humans.) Before dog-sitting I'd just want to know if there's any dog-specific things I should know about: any specific eating schedules, dietary restrictions, favorite treats/toys, commands (if any), etc.
A typical day
Depends on the location of your home of course, but I'm a big fan of parks, anywhere where there's grass. I also enjoy dog parks for those especially social dogs who like to play with others!
