Cat & Dog Lover 💖

Pet care experience

✨🐾 Welcome to Natalie's Pet Care Haven in Uptown Dallas! 🐾 ✨ Hello pet parents! I'm Natalie, a dedicated pet lover who recently traded the bustling streets of Baltimore & DC for the vibrant community of Uptown Dallas over two years ago. Missing the furry companionship, I decided to channel my passion into pet sitting on Rover. About Me: With a professional background in business development, marketing, and financial services, I work remotely Monday to Friday, offering the flexibility needed to provide exceptional care for your beloved pets. My commitment goes beyond the basics—I'm highly communicative, love capturing moments with an abundance of pictures, and always provide a detailed summary on Rover cards. Your Pet's Well-being: To ensure a seamless experience, I thrive on receiving all the details about your fur babies and entry instructions before the visit. I'm more than happy to arrange a meet and greet before our first encounter to ensure a perfect fit for everyone. Active Lifestyle: Outside of my pet sitting adventures, I lead an active lifestyle, hitting the gym, playing volleyball, and indulging in the occasional snowboarding session. Dog walks are my favorite steps to get in, although I might limit walks during the peak Dallas summers! Animal Whisperer: They say I'm a bit of a dog whisperer, and while I adore all pets, cats hold a special place in my heart. With one dog and four cats of my own over the last two decades, I'm comfortable with all feline personalities, from love biters to hissers. Shy cats warm up to me surprisingly quickly. Volunteer Experience: My commitment extends to over eight years of volunteering at animal shelters in Maryland and Dallas. While I have experience with various pets, my focus on Rover has allowed me to provide personalized care to many delightful furry friends. Special Skills: Handling larger dogs is second nature to me, and even enthusiastic pullers won't be a challenge. Giving medication to cats and dogs is easy for me. My background also includes assisting my mom with her small business of pet grooming. Star Sitter Status: I'm proud to hold Rover's Star Sitter status, emphasizing my responsiveness, highly rated care, and accurate availability and preferences. Your pets are in trusted hands! I appreciate your consideration and the time you've taken to explore my Rover profile. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or if you'd like to schedule a visit. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry companions! Natalie T. 🌟

Bowen has anxiety meeting new people so we have to do a few introductions until he’s comfortable. Natalie has been incredibly patient, flexible and understanding! She knows a lot about dog behaviors and how to navigate them.

Really appreciated not only how Natalie took care of the cats, but how hard she worked to get to know them too. They were clearly very comfortable hanging out with her during the check-ins and the detailed follow ups we got after every visit (and so many pics) were so appreciated.

Natalie was amazing with our dog! Her communication was great which was appreciated since we were out of town. She took so many pictures and left detailed summaries of their walk together. Would definitely recommend! :)

I will follow the owner's instruction on how to care for the pet in their home. Your pet will be cared for the way you want me to. If there is anything specific about your pet, pet care, or home entry, I can always accommodate.

Information Natalie T. would like to know about your pet

I need to know if your dog is not good with other dogs/children. It's not an issue for me to walk dogs with preferences, but it makes it easier for me to plan where we will walk to avoid any confrontations. Any other behavioral things that are not the norm for dogs/cats are good to know too. If you have specific care instructions, please let me know!

A typical day

I usually like to follow the dogs' normal walking routine to ensure they are comfortable. I let the dog take lead in where we are going unless it's not a good way. I enjoy walking on Katy Trail with dogs in general, but I will only do so if it's within walking distance/instruction to do so! For cats, it depends on what the cat wants to do. Some cats like to be petted, brushed, etc. For cats that do not want to be petted/cuddled, I will work with whatever it prefers.
