I love talking care of your pets!

Pet care experience

I have had dogs and cats all of my life and I love them so much that it's impossible to describe. I have never met an animal I haven't loved! I enjoy taking dogs for walks and spoiling them the way their families would. I am 50 so I am responsible and trust worthy. I have personally trained all of my dogs so if you need any help in that area, I would love to help! Please, please pick me! I promise you won't be disappointed !I am available to be with your pets 24 hours a day. I really never leave my dogs alone and I wouldn't leave yours either!I have a fenced yard and a couple dogs that love every dog they meet. I can watch your pets at my home or yours, which ever works better for you or your kido. If you want to book pet/house sitting and would prefer, I can leave my dogs at home with my mom unless you think that your fur baby would enjoy a buddy for some entertainment. I also love to take the dogs on walks each day if that's something your pet would enjoy. I currently live with my mom Barbara and honestly it would be difficult to determine which one of us loves animals more! Because I am home full time I am completely available to play with and care for your pups! There's almost nothing in the world that I love more than dogs! My personal dog's absolutely love other dogs and really make the dogs boarded in my home feel more comfortable. They are so welcoming to any dogs I care for. Unfortunately at this time I cannot care for male dogs in my home but I would love to care for them in your home! I had a male dog who came to stay here and he marked all over the house and I am afraid that if I cared for another that they would be inclined to mark in those same spots even though we had the house professionally cleaned. I also really enjoy taking the pups with me when I leave to run to the store and such if that is something that you think that they would enjoy doing.Because I have a fully fenced yard and dog doors they can also go in and out whenever they want!

This was our second time booking with Natalie and she is absolutely amazing! She stayed at our house for over a week with our 3 dogs and took such amazing care of then (and our home). She is super thorough when reviewing care of pets and the home. She takes care of our dogs like they are her own and we will continue to use her anytime we need a pet sitter in the future!

Natalie was great. She stayed with our dog (Tucker) at our house for 5 days and she was great with him. She kept him entertained and provided him a friend while we were gone. I will recommend her to my friends and family for their dog sitting needs in the future. We will also be requesting her for our own dog sitting needs soon. Thanks you Natalie.

Sadly I can not leave Natalie a good review. We met Natalie before hand and she seemed to be a down to earth person who would take good care of our dog. She had good reviews and repeat clients. Unfortunately she did not take good care of my dog. She was viewed on our home security system vaping in our home, unplugging our cameras and turning other cameras around. She left my back door open for almost 12 hours at night leaving my home exposed to the elements and potential thieves so the dog could go in and out and she could sleep. When I messaged her about the door she lied about the door and stated that it had only been open a little while. She was told where we would like her to sleep when she came for her meet and greet. She ignored us and proceeded to go into our bedroom and sleep in our bed. She is seen several times on video going in and out of our room. The guest room was never used. She did not feed my dog breakfast until 12:53 pm. If I could of came home early from my trip I would of. I would think long and hard about having Natalie in your home watching your animals. From this experience we will never have another sitter in our home ever. Our trust was deeply violated.

Natalie recently finished house-sitting/watching our dog Freyja and we will absolutely book her again if she’s available! Natalie is professional, communicative, and an overall great Rover. She took Freyja on lots of adventures to *multiple* different dog parks and foothills hikes aka Freyja’s heaven. Natalie was also flexible and accomodating when we last minute had to extend our trip/her housesitting. Thank you so much, Natalie!

Information Natalie S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know EVERYTHING about your pets! I want to do my best to treat your pet as close to how you do things at your home. That way your kidos have lots of fun and feel as much at home as possible.

A typical day

I live right by the foothills which have lots of fun trails that are available to take your dog for great walks. Also the new dog park at Ann Morrison park is a fun option as well. But more than anything you know your dog the best and I would love suggestions from you about the things your fur baby loves to do! As far as I am concerned it doesn't matter how close the particular place that your dog loves to go to is away from where I live. I pride myself on treating and doing the things that you know your dog loves to do whether it is close to me or not!
