Safety, trust & environment

I have a big fenced in yard for my three dogs at home. For drop-in visits, walks, and check-ins, I provide the absolute best care given the environment (Fresh water, food, and playtime always). With NC heat, I make sure to prioritize pet health and wellness alongside their happiness. Each animal is unique and I make sure to take all factors and needs into consideration with each visit! ❤️

Information Natalie M. would like to know about your pet

Please advise me of any special care or specifics, I’d be more than happy to accommodate to their needs! I have experience with senior dogs and cats with medicine and special care!

A typical day

Walks range from strolls to hikes and fetch with a tennis ball are both activities I love to implement for any dog! Playtime or just cuddles, I just love spending time with them.

Pet care experience

I have always had a deep love for animals, and caring for them has been a natural part of my life. From energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets, who need more patience and comfort, I truly enjoy getting to know each animal's unique personality. I currently own 3 big dogs, each with their own unique needs - they are such a joy to take care of each day. Whether your pet likes long walks, endless fetch and playtime, or quiet companionship, I am more than happy to meet them where they're most comfortable. 🐾

I am happy to recommend Natalie as a wonderful pet sitter and dog walker. She is caring, dependable, and has a natural way with animals that immediately puts both pets and their owners at ease. Natalie is also very disciplined and organized, which makes her especially reliable when it comes to following routines, keeping track of details, and making sure each pet receives the attention and care they need. What stands out most about Natalie is how seriously she takes the responsibility of caring for someone else’s pet. She is trustworthy, patient, and attentive, and I feel very comfortable leaving my pets in her care. Whether she is walking a dog, checking in during the day, or spending time with pets while their owners are away, Natalie brings kindness, consistency, and genuine care to everything she does. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter or walker.
