Fun and loyal sitter

Hi, I’m Natalie! I’m a special needs teacher and currently pursuing my master’s at Loyola University Maryland. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and cared for many pups through sitting, walking, and administering medications. A few years ago, I lost my beloved pitbull, Dozer, and I still miss the companionship every day. Caring for other dogs has been the best way to keep that love alive. I’m patient, calm, and very comfortable with dogs who have anxiety or need a little extra support. Whether your pup needs long walks, structured routines, or just someone who will sit with them and make them feel safe, I’m here to help. I’d love to be part of your dog’s world.

Safety, trust & environment

I would treat my client's pets the same way I have treated mine and my family and friends. Making sure they get proper exercise, have gone to the bathroom, was fed, has clean water, etc. And last but not least a lot of fun and love!

Schedule

I work full‑time from 7:45–3:45, but my afternoons, evenings, and weekends are completely open for pet care. I’m also available for holidays. Whether your pup needs walks, drop‑ins, or extra companionship, I make sure their care fits smoothly into my routine so they always get consistent attention.

Before I care for your pup, I like to know anything that helps me support them best: their routines, energy level, favorite activities, and any quirks or anxieties. It’s especially helpful to know about medications, allergies, reactivity, crate habits, and how they do with other dogs or new people. I also love knowing what comforts them, what treats they enjoy, and what a “normal day” looks like for them. The more I know, the more I can make them feel safe and happy.
