Reviews
Very reliable, responds to messages quickly. I think he's going to be my dog's new best friend.
My dogs love Nathan! When he comes over they are so excited. They know there will be lots of peting, treats and walks. Whenever I am going to be out of town I always call him. He takes awesome care of my boys while I'm gone.
Nathan has cared for my dogs many times over the years. He has a clean background, loves animals, is responsible and trustworthy. I trust him with full access to my home and, more importantly, he takes great care of my fur babies! He has given medication, walks, playtime and food exactly as directed. He works at a vet, so I know I can cou t on him if a problem arrises.
Nathan is an absolute exceptional animal caretaker. I have a Pitbull-Boxer mix, and my dog can come on strong and be a little intimidating, but Nathan was strong enough to be able to handle the big guy. He provided care when we needed it most and gave us crucial training tips that help to this day. If you want a dog whisperer, Nathan is your guy.

My dog Willow requires very specific care because she's a bulldog. She needs to stay Within a fenced area and when it's hot out she needs to stay indoors to prevent overheating. Willow is on a strict diet and she doesn't get human food so she can maintain her weight. That doesn't mean I don't love on her she gets plenty of healthy treats and play time she loves tug of war.
Information Nathan G. would like to know about your pet
I need to know if any mobility hindering medical conditions are present (diabetes, blindness, deafness, hip dysplasia etc). If they require medication what is their ailment and when is their medication schedule. If they have a history of aggression I need to know what the triggers are (head shy, fear of men, dog aggression etc. )
A typical day
I love to exersize and can keep up with your pets in tug of war, fetch and light horse play. If your dog is low energy then I can supervise nap times and cuddles.

I have reduced my hours so I can focus on my school work. It's pretty common that I get a couple days off in a row. It'll give me plenty of time to help out with your kiddo.
