Pet care experience

Every pets best friend!

Hello! :) I've grown up with pets all my life - literally - the longest I've gone without having a pet was maybe 5 years! I also owned two cats for 13 years of my life and I loved and cared for them so much, they were brothers and taught me how to gently love! I am very much a cat girl at heart! I have a pet of my own (Pitbull Mix named Beau) back at my official home in Houston, Texas. I, of course, miss him dearly but I would love to give your pets the same love I give my dog! I can't wait to meet your lovely fur babies!

Safety, trust & environment

I watch the doors and windows in case your pets like to play Escape Room! I give lots of pets, cuddles, playtime (inside and outside), and love (I'm a talker!). If they aren’t huge cuddle bugs I respect their space and am extremely patient. I make sure to let them smell me all over so they know I am a friendly person!

House Sitting • Jul 22, 2026

Natasha last minute was able to watch our 1 year old dog Franklin for a long weekend. She was communicative, came over for a meet and greet, and took amazing care of Franklin. She took him on long walks and spent lots of time with him. It was crazy weather (storms and bad air quality from fires), and she did a great job keeping him safe, dry and exercised still! I would rebook Natasha anytime. She left our house spotless too - going above and beyond.

Drop-In Visits • Jun 22, 2026

Natasha went above and beyond in taking care of my shy, skittish cat both with housesitting and drop ins. She left the apartment super clean and tidy, followed the instructions we left perfectly, and was so sweet to my cat. I was nervous never having used Rover before, but we could not have asked for a better experience with Natasha!

We had a great experience with Natasha! She stayed in our apartment with our dog and cat and took excellent care of both. She was on time, very communicative, and sent regular photos and updates, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a clean and tidy house, which we really appreciated. She also walks our dog weekly and consistently does a fantastic job. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and attentive sitter!

Dog Walking • Apr 09, 2026

Natasha was super communicative and arrived right on time to walk Remy. She took him on a long walk around the neighborhood and share lots of photos and updates. We will be using her again!

Natasha has been a great sitter for my home and cat, Zoe, multiple times. She always has wonderful communication and is sure to send pictures while we are away. She is the first sitter whose availability we check when looking and I would definitely recommend her!

Schedule

IMPORTANT PLEASE READ: I’m currently working a part-time job in Manhattan that requires me to work 5-hour shifts. If I am scheduled, I will be out of the apartment for approximately 6-7 hours a day. I’ve been able to cat and dog sit even with my busy schedule. I’m extremely communicative about my schedule and can/will let you know when I would be in and out of the house.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Natasha can host up to 1 pet per night
I would like to know if the pet has any medical conditions - needing medications, specific cleaning methods, or specific diets. If they have certain areas on the body they don’t like being touched (paws, belly, ears, muzzle, etc.) and what their behavioral eating habits are (aggressive, calm, needs space, etc.). As well as any hiding places they tuck themselves into so I can check them.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
