Safety, trust & environment

I love taking my dog for a walk in the park or playing tug of war/fetch in the evenings. I have a very active dog and would love to play with yours! I understand that dogs may have certain anxieties regarding their surroundings or other people/animals and take great care to make sure they are comfortable and properly cared for.

Information Natalie V. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet is dog/cat/human aggressive, will bolt on a leash, likes to eat random food/items on the ground, or has any special care instructions.

A typical day

I love to take my dog to the park, the beach, and hiking. She also loves to play fetch and tug of war. Your pet is welcome to join :)

Pet care experience

I was recently accepted to Cornell University for veterinary school and have some time to spare for your fur babies before I leave in August! I worked one year for a nonprofit veterinary service called CAMP clinics and another year at an emergency and specialty medicine pet hospital. At home I own a sweet Labrador retriever named Luna and a sassy hamster named Davinci. I am comfortable with giving oral medications if your pet is able to take them in a treat without being restrained. ✨ New to Rover? Use code NATALV52479 for $20 off your first booking ✨

Natalie is great! Communicates efficiently. Takes the time to make sure our pup is comfortable before and after her walks. Our pup looks forward to her routine walks each and every time.
