Pet care experience
Hey there! 🐾 Looking for someone with a paw-some touch to care for your furry friend? Well, look no further! With years of experience tending to dogs of all shapes and sizes, including those with special dietary needs and medical requirements, I've got your back – and your pup's too! Growing up surrounded by a menagerie of animals in the African bush taught me the ins and outs of animal care, from dogs and cats to even the more exotic companions like gazelles. And for the past 6 years, I've been the go-to sitter for a gentle giant of a Newfoundland cross, easing his separation anxiety and providing top-notch care whenever his family needs a helping hand. Trust me to give your beloved pet the love, attention, and expertise they deserve – they'll be wagging their tails in no time! 🐶💕

Nathalie was absolutely amazing, Unfortunately had a family emergency and couldn’t leave Winston alone, so I booked Winston in a few hours before hand. He’s an anxious boy but was reassured he would be fine and he was was, i had regular updates regarding Winston’s stay and the pictures of him settled on her lap and in her home was so lovely to see. Would definitely be using Nathalie for Winston’s stays going forward. Thank you so much again 🧡🧡
We were recommended Nathalie as she is experienced with our dogs breed (Newfypoo) he is still relatively young and learning (aka can be a handful). She did a fantastic job, very knowledgeable and playful with him. We had plenty of updates and she was very responsive with messages. We will definitely be trusting her with Rudy again in the future. Thank you so much Nathalie xx
My pup loves spending time with Nathalie, he gets so excited as soon as we turn into her street. Drop-offs are really easy. When I pick him up, he’s usually tired out and content with his day. Nathalie's place is like a home away from home for my dog, and I couldn't be happier with the care she provides.
Nathalie has been an absolute lifesaver for us since 2019 when we first entrusted her with the care of our beloved Newfypoo, Sloan. From his puppy days to now, with his ongoing separation anxiety and severe allergies requiring medication, Nathalie has taken care of him when we’ve needed to be away. Her dedication to Sloan's well-being is unparalleled, and it's evident in the special bond they share. Since Nathalie transitioned into house sitting, it's been an absolute game-changer for us. Sloan is not just well cared for; he's genuinely content and settled in her presence. There's truly no one else we'd rather have watching over Sloan when we're away.

When it comes to caring for pets, I strive to provide a comfortable and enriching environment, whether it's in my home or yours. With a fully fenced yard, there's space for playtime and outdoor adventures right at my fingertips. However, I understand that every pet has their own preferences, and after 2-3 days, many dogs feel most at ease in the familiarity of their own homes. That's why I'm flexible and adaptable, ready to cater to your pet's needs wherever they feel happiest. From adjusting my schedule to match their routine to ensuring they receive personalised attention and care, I'm dedicated to providing a seamless and stress-free experience for both you and your furry friend.

Information Nathalie C. would like to know about your pet
Understanding your pet ahead of time is key to providing the best possible care. Here's what I like to know upfront: 1. Temperament: Knowing your pet's personality helps me tailor my approach to their individual needs. Whether they're outgoing and energetic or shy and reserved, I'll make sure they feel comfortable and secure in my care. 2. House training: It's essential to know if your pet is house trained to ensure a smooth experience for both of us. This helps me anticipate any needs they may have and maintain a clean and tidy environment. I am currently unable to accept dogs that are not house trained. 3. Special needs: Whether it's dietary restrictions, medical conditions, or specific care instructions, understanding your pet's special needs allows me to provide the appropriate level of attention and support. 4. Behavioral quirks: From separation anxiety to leash reactivity, being aware of any behavioral challenges helps me prepare and implement strategies to ensure a positive experience for your pet. By sharing these details ahead of time, we can work together to create a customised care plan that meets your pet's unique requirements, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved every step of the way!
A typical day
A typical day with your pet is all about fun, love, and adventure! Here's a glimpse into what we might get up to: 1. Morning cuddles: We'll start the day with plenty of snuggles and belly rubs to get those tail wags going and set a positive tone for the day ahead. 2. Outdoor explorations: We'll venture out into the neighborhood for a leisurely stroll, allowing your furry friend to sniff out all the exciting scents and discover new sights along the way. 3. Playtime galore: Whether it's a game of fetch in the backyard, a tug-of-war session with their favorite toy, there'll be plenty of opportunities for active play and exercise to keep your pet happy and healthy. 4. Enrichment activities: From puzzle toys to interactive games, I'll provide stimulating activities to engage your pet's mind and prevent boredom throughout the day. 5. Relaxation and downtime: After all the excitement, we'll wind down with some quiet time, perfect for cuddling up on the couch or enjoying a peaceful nap together. With a perfect blend of exercise, mental stimulation, and affectionate companionship, your pet will have a day filled with joy and adventure by their side.
