Chelsea Dog Walker & Cat Sitter

I grew up with animals and share my home with two rescue cats, so caring for pets is simply part of who I am. One of my rescues has one eye and the other struggles with anxiety, which has taught me patience, confidence, and how to make nervous pets feel safe. For dogs, I love getting them out to explore. Whether it’s a walk along the Hudson, people-watching through Chelsea, or a trip to Madison Square Dog Park (with your permission), I tailor every outing to your dog’s personality and energy level. High-energy adventure? Slow sniff walk? I’m happy to do both. You’ll come home to a relaxed, happy pet who had plenty of exercise, play, and attention.”

Natasha was fantastic! Super responsive, great with Gus, and got him to walk more than a few blocks which is a feat!

Natasha is wonderful! My dog got lots of play time and seemed so happy. Natasha sent lots of updates with pictures and communicated throughout. She was also very flexible and accommodated my schedule. I’d definitely book Natasha again!

Natasha is absolutely wonderful! She is reliable and flexible with the scheduling, able to adjust to what I needed. She was super sweet with Winnie and attentive to her needs. She went above and beyond, not just walking her but also playing and cuddling her at home afterwards. She documented everything in adorable pictures that were shared with me. Recommend 10/10!

Let me know if your dog as any needs or anxieties, especially in the city. I will take that into account when planning our walking route.
