Every pets best friend!
Pet care experience
I'm an Actor in NYC! 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'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 12 years of my life and I loved and cared for them so much, they were brothers and taught me how to gently love :) I can't wait to meet your lovely fur babies!
Reviews
Natasha was great with Penny! She arrived on time and sent pictures of our girl playing in the snow. We felt very comfortable with her watching Penny.
Natasha was absolutely amazing. She is super sweet, caring and easy to communicate with. My 8 yr old frenchie loved her and I would absolutely book her again. She sent me daily updates and let me know that that Eggo was having fun, safe, happy and well cared for. I literally cannot say enough good things. If she is available, book her!
Natasha has watched our cat in our home multiple times, including for our last couple of trips when we were out of state. She has always done a great job. She is also very communicative and has been wonderful to work with! I would definitely continue to recommend her to others!
Excellent cat sitter! I recommend her 100% Natasha was wonderful with my wallflower cat; I was surprised to see how quickly they became cuddly friends through the weekend I was away. She has a very sweet energy that makes pets approach her right away, and enough experience to handle elderly and cats with tricky behaviors with ease and confidence. She was also super flexible, helpful, and communicative during an unpredictable change of travel plans, making sure my pets were looked after until my return and giving me the peace I needed. I will definitely book her services again in the future.

I wipe paws to make sure the NYC germs don’t get into the house and I watch the doors and windows in case any of your pets like to play Escape Room lol! I give lots of pets, cuddles, playtime, and love (I will talk their ears off to them about how cute they are haha!)
Home
Information Natasha J. would like to know about your pet
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, etc.), what their behavioral eating habits are (aggressive, calm, needs space, etc.), and finally if I should wipe the paws a specific way once coming inside. I’d also like to know how they react on walks to other pets/animals and if I should keep yours away from others, or if they lunge at skateboards/bikes, and so on.
A typical day
For walking, I would ideally walk them all around the nearest park and give them plenty of time to smell everything! If there's no park nearby I make sure they get about a 30-40 minute walk. And I always make sure the dog takes care of all their business before finally coming back inside the apartment. At home, I love cuddling, playing, and petting. 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! I also love a good game of tug of war or fetch with dogs and playing with a laser and feathers/strings with cats.

Availability
I’m currently working a part-time job while auditioning on the side. 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. That being said I will try my absolute best to keep their feeding schedule exact, if they have a strict schedule that is. It’s truly the best feeling when I come home from my hectic day to visit your pets - makes me even more appreciative and caring to them!
