Hikes or Dog Parks Every day!
Pet care experience
I work from home in an area with plenty of lounging spots for my guests, and my dog Elsa's nickname is "the Ambassador of Fun." On a rotating schedule, we go on a new adventure every day (weather permitting) that includes hikes in Griffith Park or visits to one of the many local dog parks. I have been the primary care giver for at least 1 dog at all times for the last 25 years, and am generally the "go -to" dog sitter for most people I know. In fact, I have people in my life I would probably say "I know your dog way better than I know you" I am familiar with the special care and handling of dogs young and old, as well as those with separation anxiety. Providing a comfortable place to stay with "flexible" rules. Aka: I am a huge pushover for the puppy dog eyes. ha ha. It is not abnormal for my sofa to be full of dogs while I sit on the floor.
Reviews
Our dog has the best time when he hangs out with Nathaniel and his pup Elsa! They go on long walks, they hike and play with other dogs. We’re so happy to give our Theo the chance to socialize and play while we’re at work. He’s always tuckered and happy when he comes home :)
Nathaniel has a special gift with dogs that deserves to be shared with the community. There are very few people I would trust with me dog for an hour. I repeatedly trusted him with my dog for two weeks. Of course, my dog was sad when I got home because he knew it was time to leave Nathaniel's company. He is an excellent care taker and your pet would be lucky to stay with him.
Nathaniel has been my most trusted pet sitter for the past 7 years. He truly loves dogs and always has their best interests at heart. He takes them for long walks and trips to the dog park. He keeps an eye on mealtimes when pups have special diets. He also knows how to administer multiple types of medications, including insulin injections. My own dog is very high maintenance due to separation anxiety but I know she’s in good hands when with him. I’m very particular when it comes to my Rosie. I can’t recommend him enough.
Nathaniel is a calm, loving pet sitter that I trust completely with my cranky older dog. He provides the safe, nurturing environment that gives me peace of mind when I’m out of town and can’t be with my dog. I whole-heartedly recommend him!

Information Nathaniel P. would like to know about your pet
Although every dog has their quirks, I would much rather know about any "surprises" before their stay. As I do have my own dog , a "meet & greet" before we agree to work together will be required.
A typical day
A day at my house usually consists of a 4 block walk in the early morning., a 1 mile walk at lunchtime, and either a late afternoon "adventure" or a 3 mile walk between 5-6. Your dog will know that their happiness and comfort is WAY more important than mine.
