Kind and Caring Pet Sitter 🐶🐱
Pet care experience
I have been caring for dogs my whole life. I have owned my own dogs, volunteered in numerous pet shelters, and have been dog walking, sitting, and boarding professionally for 12 years. I am experienced with many different breeds of dogs and have experience with puppies, senior dogs, medication dispensing, and basic training. I am very caring and attentive and treat every dog I care for as if they are my own, giving them plenty of love, affection, and quality time!
Reviews
Natalie took great care of our energetic fur baby ❤️
Natalie is a wonderful and trustworthy dog sitter! She has boarded my dog Lola multiple times when I go out of town and Lola always returns happy and well taken care of. Natalie is very communicative and takes excellent care of Lola while I am away. She is a very kind person and I would highly recommend her as a dog sitter!
We have two dogs who love Natalie; they come running whenever they see her! Natalie volunteered at the dumb friends league for a time working with abandoned dogs and cats. She is an animal lover for sure! She would be an asset to anyone who is looking for a responsible, caring person to take care of their pets.

Safety, trust & environment
For pet boardings in my home, I allow the animals on my couch and bed if they are used to being on furniture. I allow them to roam freely in my apartment or can crate them if that is preferred by the owner. I always take the dogs I care for on walks unless otherwise requested by the owner. For pet sitting and drop in visits in the clients home, I adhere to any directions and specifications given by the owner and am always respectful of privacy and cleanliness. I offer drop in visits and sittings, thought I typically do not do overnight care unless personally requested to do so and I always prefer to meet with the owner before hand in these circumstances.
Home
Information Natalie M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know of any behavioral issues if there are any I should know about such as aggression with people or other dogs, excessive barking, etc. Also for puppies please let me know if they are well potty trained or not so we can avoid accidents as much as possible!
A typical day
When I board dogs in my home, a typical day looks like going for a walk in the morning, having play time throughout the day, and going for another walk in the evening. I usually will also do an afternoon walk if the weather is not too hot. I follow any specifications given by the owner as to how many walks per day they need whether it be more or less. I love taking the dogs for walks in the park or on hiking trails from time to time!

Availability
I am typically available for pet care 7 days a week. I work mostly from home which allows me to spend all or most of the day with the pets I care for and gives me flexibility for scheduling. If I am ever needed outside of the house it is always for only a few hours at a time. I also have a wonderful animal loving friend/roommate who is usually able to be present if ever I need to step away for a bit.
