Natalie's Puppy Love Nest
We love all animals but dogs take the steak! Our senior chihuahua mix Chancho loves having company and is very social; he gets along with everyone: animals and humans alike. I joined an active band in January of '26 and have another job but I make sure pups get tons of pets and lovins and attention. I find walks to be the best way to exercise and bond between new friends. Your fur babies have full roam of our home and can choose where they want to sleep even if it's in our bed. We know time away from you won't be the same but I promise to love them like our own. I will send you updates in the form of pictures and quick anecdotes. I am reserved to not respond to requests between 9pm-9am but I will respond friendly and promptly during business hours. As a new but temporary policy, I will not be accepting drop-off/ pick-up times before 10 am (up to 11pm is fine). If you have an early flight, then you need to book an extra night for the day before. I can be relatively flexible but I'm implementing this policy to deter drop-off times outside regular business hours for my own well-being. I have a solid roster of regulars so if you want to have your pup stay with us, contact me asap to secure your plans. I am particular and can only accept house-trained and socially adept pups and I will try to work with special cases but I can't take them all, as much as I want to. When they're in my home, safety is paramount so it's in everyone's best interests if all the pups will mesh well. My calendar does not reflect my actual schedule as the band is a new venture and my availability can shift.

Will definitely be rebooking in the future. Very friendly and communicative.
Natalie provided us with great service and a warm, inviting environment for Kinzie's stay. When an unexpected issue came up, it was resolved un a quick and professional manner, to my complete satisfaction. Great work, Natalie!
Thanks so much! Maisy had a great time!
My dog is always happy with Natalie!
Natalie was fantastic! I’ve never used rover before and was coming into town all the way from Colorado. She was very flexible, communicative, and easy to work with! She put my nerves straight at ease the second we met. My pup is a hyper 2.5 year old Goldendoodle and she was excellent with handling him and ensuring he did not try to escape (he had a tendency to run away). Natalie’s own small dog was very friendly and got along with my boy perfectly fine. I’ll definitely be recommending her and using her services again if I’m ever in that area again. She sent videos/photos daily and loved on my boy as if he was her own 😊great first rover experience!
Natalie was wonderful! Our dog loved spending time with her and will definitely be back!

Schedule
My schedule is mostly dependent on the pups in my care though I do have a social life and my own activities outside the house. I will be communicative regarding my own plans and be up front with any appointments or changes and I ask the same of my guests' owners.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
It is absolutely essential to me as a pet sitter and an animal lover that your doggo feels safe and happy. Not to toot my own horn but I've had clients who said their dog doesn't warm to anyone but that they do with me. I take pride in making them feel at home! Chancho loves to run errands with me so if your pup loves car rides, let me know and I will bring them along.

A typical day
Walks are great bonding time between me and your pup as well as your pup with ours. It's a surefire way to make dogs feel comfortable because it makes them part of our pack and releases wiggles. If the weather is 50° and up, we will be outside in our big fenced-in backyard. Obviously if your fur baby isn't one for staying outdoors, that won't be the case, but if your dog likes being outside to play, we do too and will be outside most of the time playing fetch, chasing around or just basking in the sun!

- I do like to be aware of any anxieties: food anxiety, sleep anxiety, separation anxiety. These are by no means deal-breakers for us, but I have tips and tricks I've learned from years of pupsitting and it's just good for your dog if I know about them before they arrive.
