Pet care experience
I love dogs + cats & they love me!
Since 12/01/2026 have been doing multiple weekly drop-in visits for Maggie, a very sweet, energetic and photogenic 5 month old maltese poodle mix. She loves going for zoomies in the garden, playing with her toy squirrel and chewing her chew sticks while sitting in my lap. Since 16/02/2026 I have been taking Kubra, a lovely energetic 2 year old Staffie for walks on multiple days a week. She loves full body scritches and she loves to go for walks in her favourite park where she can sniff all the interesting smells. I've also looked after many pets including: My brother's lovely and very lively cockerspaniel Stitch while he's been away many times for over 2 years and I love taking him for walks and napping with him. I have also taken care of my friend's cat Fergy while he was away. Fergy always liked drinking from the bath tap and playing with the water. He also always liked to be in the room with me and would sit on my lap when watching TV and he would sleep on my feet at night. I looked after a lovely mixed breed dog called Joanie twice while her owners were away. We would go on walks to her favourite spots and spend afternoons and evenings watching films on the sofa and she would sleep beside me at night. I have looked after a senior Frenchie named Margot and her cat sister Luna twice. Margot would take me for a walk (she knows where she wants to go) and the 3 of us would sit on the sofa in the evenings watching TV. I have done drop-in visits to feed a very shy cat named Beggy. I have done a drop-in visit to spend time with a very chilled-out cockerpoodle named Rupert. I have walked a sweet easy-going senior easy-going poodle named Myla. I also do pet portraits. I have some examples on my profile. If you would like a pet portrait of your own, feel free to send me a commission request and we can work out the pricing later.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Each pet is different and I generally meet pets and their owners before house-sittings, drop-ins and walks. Some cats and dogs are shy and take time to approach you while others approach straight away. I let them get comfortable around me and take time to get to know them when I spend time with them. While my brother was away I've fed Stich the dog, picked up poop, taken him for long walks, vet appointments, played with him and watched TV shows with him and made sure to let him know he's a good boy. When looking after my friend's cat I made sure his litter tray wasn't too filthy, he always had food and water and I brushed him and petted him. When looking after Joanie the dog I made sure she had her breakfast, her dinner, clean water, her morning and evening outing to do her business and her daily walk. I would give her plenty of pets, talk to her and I would give her space when she needed a quiet corner to retreat.
Ratings and reviews
Natasha took such great care of Dottie while I was away. She read through all my notes and picked up on all the little details. She sent lots of updates and photos, and was very attentive to Dottie’s needs. It was clear from the pictures that Dottie was very happy in Natasha’s company. Natasha took really great care of my home as well, I came back to find it just as it was when I left. I will absolutely be asking for Natasha’s help again in the future. Thanks Natasha!
Our cat Ralph loved Natasha and the updates were frequent and thorough. We were able to relax on holiday knowing he was being looked after soo well and we came home to a very chilled Ralph. Thank you Natasha.
This was Dottie’s first drop in by Natasha. Natasha sent lots of photos and it was very evident that Dottie was relaxed and comfortable in her company. Natasha made sure her water was fresh before she left which was a nice extra touch. Thank Natasha! Dottie looks forward to seeing you again soon
Natasha is great with our cat Dobby. Trustworthy, reliable and we feel relaxed when we go away to come back to a happy cat. I’d recommend Natasha to anyone.
Natasha was brilliant, our cat Ceci loved her and we had lots of lovely cuddly photos 🥰💕
Natasha was an excellent sitter for our cat and particularly assiduous at cleaning up after him.

Schedule
I'm a singer-songwriter and artist so most of my work is freelance and therefore my schedule is fairly flexible. Because I have regular weekly clients at the moment I can't take house-sitting requests for more than a few hours in the evenings but I have plenty of drop-in and walk slots available across the week. I can occasionally do some house-sitting bookings at weekends. I am generally available for last-minute requests as long as they are within 35 minutes walking distance from me.
