Pet care experience

Big & small dog friendly

Hi there, my name is Natalie! I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds. I grew up in a big dog-loving family and have always had a dog in my life. I’ve also helped family, friends, and neighbors with dog sitting and walking over the years. I currently care for my 70-pound yellow Lab, who is truly my whole world. Having a large dog myself has given me a lot of experience with energetic dogs and the importance of regular exercise. In my full-time career I’m a licensed therapist, so being caring, attentive, and reliable is a big part of who I am. I believe every dog, no matter their size, deserves quality walks and thoughtful care. I’ll always take the time to make sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for every visit.

Safety, trust & environment

My top priority is the safety and comfort of both your pup and your home. I respect every owner's routines and instructions so you can feel confident that everything will be taken care of during my visits. I also send regular updates and photos so you can see how your dog is doing while you're away.

Natalie is an excellent dog walker/care taker! She has been helping to take my dog out weekly when I have to go into the office and he might love her move than me! She takes my Kai Kai on long walks and makes sure he has water in his bowl before she leaves. She is just the best! Would absolutely recommend you let her walk your furry friend :)

Natalie is the daughter of one of my close childhood friends and she is FANTASTIC!!! Natalie walked my lab Spencer in 2020 and was such a blessing. I have a compromised immune system and she was an incredible help during the corona pandemic when she would take Spencer to his favorite dog park for his exercise.

Natalie took care of my 2 beagles on different occasions. I think she did a great job and I know she took them on long and hearty walks which was really helpful. She is the first I reach out to when I'm in the office late or when I need to go out of town for a bit. i recommend Natalie for rover

Natalie has been a neighbor of mine since I moved to Connecticut with my family in 2016. She is an incredibly sweet and caring young lady. Natalie watched my corgi (Reese) a few times over the years when myself and my husband would go visit our daughter's college campus in Virginia. I never worried when we were away because I always knew that Reese would be in good hands with Natalie. I recommend her for Rover because she is very responsible and great with dogs.

Please let me know ahead of time if your dog has any medical needs, medications, routines, or behavioral tendencies that I should be aware of before our meet and greet. I prefer to do a quick meet and greet before first-time bookings so we can make sure it’s a great fit for everyone.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
