Safety, trust & environment

For dogs, if you have any toys they like to play with, I will play with them using those toys. I will go on walks with them to make sure their business gets done. If they have been naughty and made a mess, I will tidy things back up for you with your permission. For cats, I bring my own toys if needed to play cats. Cats I've watched over loved the rainbow string wand and the mini plush soccer balls I bought for my own cats. I like to brush cats and help them de-shed. I regularly clean out the litter box and use a deodorizer on both the remaining litter and litter dumped if left in the trash bag. Essentially how I treat my cats, I would treat yours with the understanding that I am a stranger in their home.

Information Nathan R. would like to know about your pet

Don't need to know a whole lot. Just let me know if there are any special needs, allergies, emergency vet contact, and anything else you'd like me to watch for.

A typical day

Dogs: Walks, (maybe even go jogging of your dog enjoys that), play time, rubs and cuddles. Cats: Chasing string wands, running at lasers and catching mini plush soccer balls. Light brushing to help with some shedding. Rubs and affection of your cat enjoys that.

Pet care experience

I have 3 cats. I love them all. One is a senior with the energy of a teen. One is reserved but playful. The last one is very selective with how she likes to receive attention and she gets all the love as such. They all get my attention and care in their unique ways, and I would be doing the same with your pets. I may be a cat person, but I love dogs too. Your dogs will be getting some extra attention and loving from me. Aside from just walking your dogs, we could go for a quick run, play some tug of war, whatever toys you have available. Now cats, I love playing with cats, snuggling with cats, and just occupying the same room as cats. Whatever your cats need, I'm just there to make sure they are okay and that they don't get too lonely while you're gone. I will be taking pictures of your pets and sending them to you so you know they are being taken care of or just to remind you how cute they are. Can also watch over cats colonies while you're gone.

Nathan was great with my energetic pittie. He has a calming vibe and knew how to handle her excitement over meeting a new person. He's definitely strong enough to handle bigger dogs! Clear and prompt communication and very professional.

Nathan has taken care of our cats several times when we were out of town. He is reliable and trustworthy, and it’s clear that he loves animals. We would definitely use him again.

I cannot recommend Nathan enough as a pet sitter! Nathan is genuine and truly cares for animals. Nathan goes above and beyond to take care of my pets. My pets are comfortable and safe with Nathan. He is incredibly reliable, attentive, and communicative. He loves taking photos with the pets. My pets absolutely love and adore him. It is rare to find someone as trustworthy, patient, and compassionate as Nathan. If you are looking for a pet sitter who treats your furry family members like his own, Nathan is the one.
