About Me & My Pets: I’ve cared for and loved animals my whole life. As an adult, I raised my boy Doug, an Olde English Bulldogge, from puppyhood through his senior years, including managing his arthritis and health needs until the end of his life in 2025. I currently have Winnie, a 12-year-old one-eyed Chihuahua mix, whom I adopted when she was 9. Winnie requires daily allergy medication and extra attention to her skin, which keeps me practiced in consistency and attentive care.

Ratings and reviews
We cannot recommend Natalie highly enough! She stayed at our home for two weeks to care for our dogs, and we came home to happy, well loved pups and a house that was just as clean as we left it. What truly set her apart was her kindness and flexibility. When we unexpectedly had to extend our trip by a few days to attend a family funeral, she didn’t hesitate to rearrange her schedule so she could continue caring for our dogs. That level of compassion and reliability meant the world to us during a very difficult time. Throughout our trip, she kept us updated with frequent messages and lots of photos which gave us complete peace of mind. It was obvious our dogs were comfortable, loved and receiving excellent care. She treated both our pups and our home as if they were her own. Finding someone you can fully trust with your home and your pets is rare, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have found her. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again (and already have) and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring and professional pet sitter. We love her!
Natalie did several drop in visits for us while we’re out of town. She carefully asked for and followed our instruction with our cat, and even helped us with some chore while we’re away. She was very communicative, detailed oriented, and most importantly, very sweet and loving to our kitty cat. Thank you Natalie for the great care to our fur baby ❤️
We can’t say enough good things about our experience! She was amazing with our dogs and treated them like her own. We loved receiving regular updates and pics, and it was clear they were happy, comfortable and well cared for. She was communicative, reliable and left our home spotless. Knowing our dogs and house were in such good hands made it so much easier to enjoy our time away. We would gladly book with her again (and already have) and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!
We had an amazing experience with Natalie! She truly went above and beyond, while caring for Caramel Cheeto and Cosmo. It gave us so much piece of my knowing that they were in reliable, attentive and capable hands with her. We came home to happy well cared pets, and that is awesome. It’s an absolute pleasure having her care for our babies. We would trust her again anytime.
Natalie did a great job!
Natalie is a very responsible and attentive pet caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with them. I have seen this first hand as we have raised and watched pets together over the last 14 years. She is extremely observant, noticing right away when there is a problem, and proactive in seeking/providing treatment (vet visits, specialist visits, giving daily medicines, etc.). She also gives the pets plenty of attention, stimulation, and exercise. If Natalie is watching your pet you can rest assured that they are in great hands.
