Pet Sitting with Heart—Dogs & Cats

Hi, I’m Natasha! I’m based in Austin and have always had a deep love for animals—especially dogs and cats. My husband and I shared 5 beautiful years with our sweet pit bull, who truly felt like family. Caring for her through every stage of life, especially as a senior, gave me invaluable experience and a deep understanding of what it means to provide attentive, compassionate care.

Natasha came for a meet and greet and Roswell loved her! Very communicative and kind and felt at ease with Roswell in her hands. Will definitely be rebooking.

Schedule

For the past 2.5 years, I’ve also been volunteering at my local animal shelter. This experience has allowed me to work with pets of all sizes, personalities, and backgrounds—from playful puppies to nervous rescues. It’s taught me how to quickly build trust, read animal body language, and respond with patience and care.

To provide the best care possible, I love knowing the little (and big!) things that make your pet unique. Please share any important details about their routine, behavior, health needs, likes and dislikes, and any quirks I should be aware of. Whether it’s medications, separation anxiety, leash reactivity, favorite toys, or special commands—every bit of information helps me create a safe, stress-free, and loving experience for your furry friend.
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.
