Dogs love me bc I understand them!

Pet care experience

Dog walking: I'm good at walking dogs because I've done it for friends and family numerous times over the years and I know that each dog is a little different. It's all about the details and watching and listening to their needs. Some dogs need to be allowed to roam while on a leash, some have to be really reigned in around other dogs- I can accommodate any type of dog. Drop-ins: I have also done this for family and friends- I've done drop ins for a pair of Schnauzers while their owners were in the UK for 2 weeks. I've done drop ins on my parents Chihuahua and Rat Terrier for years as well. Every dog is a little different- they are like people. The info provided by their owners re: their preferences is very important. I can also drop in on cats; I have two cats myself! I know that they don't usually want to act like they need attention, but especially older cats do appreciate a head rub and a couple crunchy treats. Overnight care: I know dogs usually keep sleeping schedules similar to us, but I also know that they often times need to use the bathroom at night, like us! I can handle that! I don't mind a dog in the bed with me too, if that's what makes them comfortable- it's all about catering to each specific animal and what they prefer. I've done this for numerous friends and family members- it's not difficult to make sure doors are locked and keep a home secure. I can treat your home and your pet like it's my own, and make sure it's safe and comfortable.

Natalie has been a long term friend and pet sitter for me and my two schnauzers. My dogs love her so much that they emit weird squeals and howls whenever they see her car pull up and mob her at the door. Not only will Natalie follow whatever care guide you give her for your pupper, but she will spend time playing with and loving on them. There's no one else I'd entrust my dog's care to when I'm out of town.

Natalie is the only person I have ever entrusted to care for my dog as well as I do. She treats my furbaby like her own, and my dog actually gets excited when I mention Natalie's name! I am very picky about dog sitters, and I have never boarded my dog. Natalie is attentive, playful, and responsible, and she is great with responding to my texts as a concerned dog mom and sending lots of pictures for reassurance. I highly recommend Natalie for your loved puppies!

Information Natalie S. would like to know about your pet

I love details about other people's pets. It's crucial I know an animals preferences and personality. You don't have to give me a written report about them, but some key details would really help me make sure they get the best care.

A typical day

I love to hike and I live in Mountain Brook. I often times frequent Red Mountain Park, Jemison Trail and the Highlands Park area. These are all dog friendly spots and I would love to be able to combine my exercise routine with dog walking for your pet.
