After my morning shift at work, my days are wide open — which means I have lots of time to spend with pets. I usually head out for walks, play sessions, or check-ins in the afternoon and evening. Since my schedule’s super flexible, I can easily work around your pet’s normal routine. Whether it’s a quick visit, a long walk, or just hanging out for company, I love filling my day with furry friends who make it more fun.

Safety, trust & environment

When I’m house or pet sitting, I treat your home and pets with the same care I’d want for my own. I make sure your pets stick to their normal routine — same feeding times, walks, and play — so they feel relaxed and comfortable while you’re away. I take time to build trust and always move at their pace, especially with pets who are shy or need a little extra patience. I’m careful with doors, gates, and anything that could affect their safety, and I always leave your home tidy and just how you left it. I can also handle small things like bringing in mail, watering plants, or keeping everything neat so it looks lived in. I like sending updates and photos too, so you know everything (and everyone!) is doing great.

Information Nathaniel l. would like to know about your pet

It really helps me to know your pet’s daily routine things like feeding times, favorite toys, and how they do on walks. I also like to know if they have any special needs, allergies, or quirks (like being nervous around other dogs, loud noises, or new people). The more I know ahead of time, the easier it is to keep their routine smooth and stress-free. Every pet is different, and I always want to make sure I’m giving them the kind of care they’re used to.

A typical day

A typical day with me is all about walks, playtime, and keeping your pet happy. We’ll get outside for fresh air, toss a few toys around, and fit in lots of cuddles and attention. If they’re older or more relaxed, we’ll just hang out and keep things calm.

Compassion You Can Count On

Pet care experience

I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages from playful puppies to calm senior companions. My experience includes daily walks, feeding, basic training reinforcement, and providing comfort for pets who get anxious when their owners are away. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and calm, patient approach. I take time to learn each pet’s routine and personality, making sure they feel safe and loved while you’re gone. I also understand canine body language and stress signals, so I can spot when a pet needs space, comfort, or playtime. Whether it’s giving medication, keeping up with training, or just offering companionship, I treat every animal as if they were my own with kindness, consistency, and care.

Nathaniel cared for my elderly cat over an extended holiday. He made sure all his needs were met and went the extra mile to ensure everything was just how we would do it ourselves. He even made time for some snuggles during his check ins. Thanks Nathaniel 💜

Nathaniel watched my dog for a few days and everything went perfectly. He sent updates every day, kept me in the loop, and treated my dog like his own. Definitely recommend him.

Nathaniel was awesome! He watched our two cats for a week while we were away, and we couldn’t be happier. He sent us updates and photos every day, which really helped us relax knowing they were in good hands. Both cats looked so content (and honestly a little spoiled!) when we got back. Even our shy one warmed up to him, which says a lot.
