Hello Pet Parent(s)! My name is Natalie, I am currently a full-time student at the U majoring in Biochemistry. I also work part-time as a lab technician for Abbott NW Hospital. Friends and family would describe me as someone who is very responsible and reliable, but also friendly and energetic. I’ve always loved animals and have been dog sitting since I was 10 years old. I also was a dog walker for my neighborhood throughout my time in high school. Growing up, my family owned a dog, named Captain, who was a Labrador Retriever. I currently have a spunky cat, named Bella, who is full of energy and curiosity. I enjoy spending my time outside and being active. I usually walk or run 3-6 miles per day, so your dog will definitely get the exercise they need. I also love playing with animals and spending quality time with them. I can assure you that your beloved dog or cat is in good care! During my time with your animal, I make it a priority that you receive photos or videos to update you on our time together. I also will always be available to get in contact with if you request for any more updates. I know it's important for you, the owner, to have peace of mind that your pet is receiving good care! I also have experience administering medications to both dogs and cats, so I am more than comfortable doing so if your animal requires it. I also am comfortable taking care of an animal with special needs or any disability. I ensure you that I show every animal the same level of care that they would receive from their own families and loved ones. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any other questions that you’d like to know about me!
