Highlights
Pet care experience
Not just pets, they’re family.
I am a true dog professional! It’s my passion! I have a bachelors degree in Animal Science which led me to manage a large luxury boarding facility for a time. This is where I became a jack-of-all-trades, working boarding, daycare, grooming, dog walking, training, etc. I now own a grooming salon with locations in West Des Moines and Grimes! I am comfortable administering insulin, medications and I’m Canine First Aid trained. I’ve met hundreds of pups and know each one is an individual. My goal is to always treat them like one of my family.
Qualifications
Pets
Safety, trust & environment
I have two dogs of my own in my home, so dogs staying with me must be dog friendly and comfortable with big dogs (Great Dane and a Borzoi!). We have yard with a 6ft privacy fence and dogs are welcome to be on the furniture (if parent allows), sleep in the bed, and have plenty of toys and bones to chew on. Crating is also available when I am out of the house if desired. I cannot take dogs with mobility limitations due to stairs to come in and out of the house, however I am happy to come watch them in your home.
Ratings and reviews
Natasha went above and beyond to treat our pets as well as her own as always!
Thank you so so so much for your constant love of our pup!
Natasha always left informative and funny blips about the pet visit along with incredible photos that reassured me my pet was being well taken care of while I was on vacation. Highly recommend!
Best Frenchie caregiver ever. I can always trust that Tulip will get a great visit even if she refuses to go on her walk. Thank you for all your care Natasha
I feel totally comfortable leaving home when I know Natasha is keeping an eye on our kitties! She does an amazing job with them and giving us updates while we’re away.
So greatful for Natasha 🥰. She took excellent care of our 3 pups while we were away !!

Schedule
I work part-time with a flexible schedule, so I am able to adjust to each pets individual needs. For walks or drop-ins I like to have a 1-2 hour window of time you would like the visit in. Currently I am unable to stay full time at someone’s house due to my businesses; however I can adjust per household to be gone no more than 4-8 hrs at a time. Please just let me know your preference.
