Pet care experience
I grew up with dogs my whole life, my family always had about 2 at a time. Golden Retrievers, Puddles, Maltese, Teacup, German Shepard, Pit bull, and Spaniel. Now I have Dunkin, my 50lb Spaniel mut for 5 years and he has changed my life:) He was a rescue and had many anxiety issues but with training and lots of love Dunkin had transformed and I have too! My brother is a professional dog trainer/walker and has been teaching me the ropes! I have been wanting to dive into more doggie work and Rover is the perfect opportunity for me! I am a freelance musician and typically work from home. I have small jobs here and there when I leave the house for a few hours but nothing too long. I wish I could afford another dog, because dogs are better in packs but I simply can't at this time. But with Rover I am able to excrizes all the skills I am learning in dog training and give Dunkin a pal throughout the day. I'm excited for Dunkin and I to add some personalites to our duo, he's a much happier pup when he has company:)
Reviews
My fun-loving fellow had a good time with Natalie today. Natalie sent photos and updated me on how well my dog and hers were getting along. She was thoughtful and careful with my pup, which eased my worries as a first time rover user. Thanks Natalie.
Natalie doesn't just love dogs--she understands them. She's compassionate and gentle, never afraid to get to nose-level and talk things out like two civilized people. She's also very physically fit and can handle big or rowdy dogs as well as delicate gentle pups. I appreciate that she's not only extremely responsible and hardworking, but keeps up to date with dog-training theory and technique as well. She'll ask all the right questions and listen to your concerns. I can't recommend her highly enough; your dog/s will adore her!
Natalie is great! I have had her walk my dog multiple times. She really has a way with dogs, and they trust her. My dog who is usually weary of new people was very fond of Natalie when she first met her. She has tons of experience and is very reliable. On top of all that, her pup Dunkin is amazing and it really shows how great she is with dogs. I really couldn't ask for a better dog walker.
I have known Natalie for four years. She is highly responsible, warm, caring, and experienced with dogs. She has dog sat and walked my 2 pups and they love her. Natalie is extremely reliable, punctual, and communicative. She will listen to and follow any special instructions or requests you give. She is compassionate and engaged and will take great care of your dog!

Dunkin is friendly but like I said, he's a rescue. He has always been really afraid of pit bulls and they normally can tell and will take advantage of him if he shows weakness. So as much as I love pits I can't have Dunkin uncomfortable. Anything else is ok!
A typical day
Prospect Park is my front yard so we will go to the park and play! If the owners are ok with it we can play ball, frisbee and if the dogs like running, Dunkin and I do a 25 min run every now and then.
