Experienced animal caretaker

Pet care experience

I have over 6 years of experience as an animal caretaker and am currently a foster parent with MCASAC. I work with a a variety of dogs from all walks of life, but typically focus on tending to large and senior dogs that require special medical needs, behavioral training, and/or socialization in a stress-free home environment.

Nathan always provides excellent care. He even cleaned up an accident one of our dogs had while he was taking care of them. He is also great with keeping you informed throughout his visit with your pet/s.

Safety, trust & environment

I strive to create a comfortable and safe environment for pets under my care, whether I'm caring for them in my own home or providing a drop-in visit at your home. For services whereby your pet is staying with me, I offer in-home doggy daycare for up to 8-hour stays and boarding services for extended to overnight care. All pups will have freedom to run around the house with plenty of exericse and playtime breaks throughout the day. To create a peaceful and stress-free mealtime for all pups, I feed them separately or in a designated space. In terms of supervision, there is always someone home as I live with four other family members who work remotely as well and are comfortable with providing supplemental care and attention as needed. Throughout the day, I like to share regular updates and photos to the owners, so they can see how their pets are doing while they're away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I'll work with you to confirm care instructions, your pet's routine and any additional needs your pet requires during my visit.

A typical day

I love to engage in fun activities with the dogs I watch. I enjoy going on long walks at the park that's just a short 7-minute walk away from my home. I also spend time hiking at nearby parks where dogs can explore nature and the scent trails. In addition to outdoor activities, I like to engage dogs in indoor playtime, such as fetch or tug of war, and provide mental stimulation through puzzle games or training exercises. Ultimately, I tailor my activities to each dog's individual needs and preferences to ensure that they have a fun and fulfilling experience during their stay.
