Love all dogs like my own

About Natalie: Now years ago, my best friend of 13 years, my yellow lab Simon, died. It was one of the worst days of my life. I have decided that I don't want the long-term commitment at this time of my life but truly love and miss dogs and enjoy having them over at my house. Additionally, I volunteered at various animal shelters for over 7 years and rescued animals for 2 weeks during Hurricane Katrina. About our home: Natalie and Simone have a large fenced in yard where the dogs can run around in. We also take our Rover dogs for walks several times a day on the trails by our house-the dogs love it here! Animals are our passion and we would be honored to watch your dog(s). We do not watch dogs in large quantites. We occasionally will combine some dogs when both families are aware and okay with it, but most likely, your dog will be the only one in our home during his/her stay.

Natalie was great with my dog, Ralphie. It was very comforting to know he was in great care and made me at ease on vacation! I would definitely trust Natalie with Ralphie again.

Natalie took care of our dog Marlene for 3 days and everything went smoothly. Marlene was happy, well cared for, and clearly enjoyed the stay. Communication was easy, and we felt very comfortable the whole time. Highly recommend!

Natalie, Jason and Janie were great with Marley. Marley had a blast during his stay and was exhausted when he came back home. Marley was treated like a king...lots of walks and running in the yard. Will definitely use Natalie in the future.

Natalie and Jason took excellent care of our dog Emmy for three days. They sent us multiple photos of Emmy each day we were away and we could tell when we picked her up, that she felt right at home in their house and with their kids. Thanks!

Safety, trust & environment

I have toys, bowls and pet items at my home. If your dog is allowed on the couch, they are here! My philosophy is that every dog is unique and I want to provide the consistency for them while their family is gone. My home is peaceful and full of natural light.

Pets

A typical day

I live right next to the Salt Creek trail and plan on taking your doggy on walks every day, several times a day. My yard is fenced in, and I love to play around with dogs, throwing a ball or stick and running around with him/her. Dogs sleep in bed with me unless you want them to be crated or on the floor!

I have a very well behaved five-year old daughter who respects dogs and knows how to treat them. I require that any dogs who stay in my house have exposure to children and who you can verify are kid-friendly. Other than that, I do not have any breed preferences and really love all animals.
