Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or if you have any special requests and I will be more than happy to accommodate.

Pets

Fun and compassionate animal lover!

Pet care experience

I have a Boston Terrier currently, and have previous experience pet-sitting both dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, playing, and dispensing medicine. I also have no problem house-sitting to keep the pets comfortable while you are away. I love animals and want them to be safe and happy while owners are away.

Nat and Trinity are the best! They are our go-to sitters. This time, we forgot to bring our pups wet food, and they offered to go to the store to get a can for her. So kind and generous!

I cannot say enough about Natalie’s above and beyond care for Ember! This vacation was our first time leaving her since we adopted her (she was a puppy mill rescue). They sent frequent updates and loved her as their own. 110% recommend.

She’s so awesome-she’s flexible, sends lots of pictures, and takes great care of our pups while we’re gone.

Natalie is so great with our dogs. She sends a lot of pictures and updates, and the boys come back exhausted, which is a good thing! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She’s the best!

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.
