Highlights
Pet care experience
Freelancer, loves animals, flexible
I've taken care of dogs, cats, and other animals my whole life. I love being around them and am good at giving them structure, routine, and a lot of love and attention. I've cared for young dogs through to senior dogs, I can provide a welcoming home for all ages and breeds and am good at adapting to each dogs individual needs. Currently I work in an office 4-5 days a week so have limited availability depending on the size of dog and their needs, please reach out and we can discuss whether I can make something work.

Natasha also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Natasha was great - she kept us updated with Roo’s outings and sent through lots of great pics. Would definitely book again in future.
Natasha was great with Ozzy. He warmed to her immediately when we had our initial meet & greet. He enjoyed his time with Natasha and going for his park runs. We will definitely use Natasha again for overnight stays.
Natasha was wonderful looking after our 1 year old Ragdoll cat for a week while we were on holiday. We had plenty of photos and updates. He looked happy and truly loved, which helped put our minds at ease. She was always so calm and reassuring and from first meeting her we knew he was in the safest hands. Thank you Natasha!
Natasha was delightful and I could not have hoped for better care of our two mini schnauzers for 3 days. They had a happy time with walks and cuddles. Would definitely use again
Natasha cared for our dog during a heatwave where she took great care to ensure he was kept cool and happy. He was also treated to cold baths and early morning walks to avoid the heat. Natasha provided regular photo updates that were greatly appreciated. We highly recommended her services.
Natasha was so great with Luna! We have a senior pup and she provided perfect care, with regular walks and cuddles. She sent plenty of pics and we know Luna was comfy, happy and well taken care of. Super recommend!

Schedule
I am a freelancer so I can work around most schedules and be very flexible. When working I often work from home or am able to bring dogs to the office. In my weekly routine I enjoy getting outside every day, living close to several parks I enjoy going for a walk and coffee most days. When the weather is good I enjoying being out in the garden.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have no other pets in my home. We have a large house with a fenced garden and also living a short walk from a few parks. I live with a couple of friends but we have quite a quiet house as we are all 30+. I give all the care to the pets that stay with me. We do have a lot of stairs, so may not be suitable for older dogs unless they are comfortable being carried or they sleep downstairs.
A typical day
I like to bring dogs that stay with me out and about on my day as much as possible. I like to run (slowly) so great if your dog likes to join in too. Otherwise I like to take them on a morning walk around the common and popping to the nearby cafe where they can expect a treat from the staff. When I have to go into the office they'll take a trip with me and get lots of attention from my team. Depending on age and energy levels we can spend a long time playing or we can lounge on the sofa watching tv.
