Pet care experience
I am a born dog owner and trainer! I have many years of experience of working with dogs of all shapes and sizes, and I love to spend time with pups of all walks! Animals respond well to my disciplinary style, because I honor and respect dogs tremendously. They know that I am here for them and only have their best interests at heart. I can’t wait to take your pup under my wing! Although I’ll be the primary caretaker, my husband Jesse will be home after work, which is usually around 7pm. He’s a dog lover too and is always happy to dole out some extra cuddles and kisses, but I’ll be handling the main responsibilities. We currently have no pets in our household, so your pooch will have my undivided attention! I like keeping pet owners informed of their pets activities and will be available to answer any questions or concerns at any time. I’m happy to send daily updates so you can know just how your pupperoni is doing and what we’ve done that day as well. I know how difficult it can be to be away from your best friend, so I’m here to make that time as easy as possible! We’ll make sure to follow the schedule that your pup is used to at home to make sure that they feel that they are right at home with me. My neighborhood in Pasadena, CA is known as Bungalow Heaven. There are many craftsman houses and hiking trails in the area, and it is really a great place for pups and humans alike. There are tons of great things to do around town, so we’ll make sure to spend a ton of time exploring to our hearts’ content. I am currently servicing the greater Northern region of Los Angeles county. My service areas include Pasadena, Sierra Madre, Arcadia, Monrovia, Altadena, Glendale, North Hollywood, Studio City, Sherman Oaks, and Van Nuys. When I am not caring for animals, I am working on my non-profit Art2edu, which a community resource organization for artists of all ages. I love giving back to the community in everything that I do, and sitting is a big part of that, too!
Reviews
Out of town for a couple days but Natalie was very professional and our chickens are happy. :-)
My regular dog-sitter canceled due to family illness a week before our long planned 2+ week trip to visit our son in Scandinavia. I was very anxious about leaving my two older dogs with chronic health issues with a stranger. Natalie was perfect in every way. I returned home to a clean house, watered garden and happy dogs. And I didn't worry while I was gone.
Thank you Natalie for taking on our 4 mo. Old puppy! Definitely a challenge and you were excellent.
Natalie was great. She took such good care of our girl. Highly recommend her. Natalie sent photos and updates daily. Took care of our house leaving it very tidy. She worked on some training issues while we were away and accommodated our dog’s special needs from a spine injury. We will def ask Natalie again to care for our dog!!

Information Natalie B. would like to know about your pet
Some things I like to learn ahead of time: Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? What’s your preferred method of communication? Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? Do you have a vet nearby that you trust? Is your dog spayed/neutered? Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? What’s the best way to spoil your pup?
A typical day
I love to stay active, so exercise will be a big part of any stay. My neighborhood has tons of great trails to explore, so we’ll spend a lot of time seeing new sights, sniffing new smells, and meeting new friends along the way. Since I work from home, we will spend all of our time together! I’ll be home all day, which means that my schedule is very flexible. I’m happy to accommodate your pup’s schedule to make sure they feel like they are right at home with me. I know that most pooches thrive on a sense of stability, so I’ll do my best to replicate the schedule that they’re used to most.
