Pet Dad of many creatures ❤️

Pet care experience

I’ve house/pet sat professionally for about 10 years now. Most pets ever at once was an Australian Shepherd, Parakeet and Maine Coon. I have stayed in house and also brought to my house as well with the owner's permission. I have administered oral and injectable medications if needed. I am prompt to reach out to an owner if I have any questions or concerns. Communication is a top priority for me, I'm caring for your fur babies!

I would definitely recommend Nathaniel for any pet sitting needs. He was very responsive and prompt with any questions or concerns I had. House was clean and my dog seemed happy and tired when I returned home. Thank you Nathaniel! Until next time.

Safety, trust & environment

I make sure that when I pet sit I give my full attention. If it’s a dog, I try to take them on walks as much as possible and play in the yard. If it’s cats, I love playing with them and letting them cuddle with me. I house-sit my Mom’s 2 Maine Coons that I grew up with!

Information Nathaniel S. would like to know about your pet

I like to discuss the do’s and don’t with dog owners. I understand that some dogs might actually hate traveling in the car, so then I just take them around their neighborhood and make sure they are safe and comfortable. I adhere to their feeding schedules. I also make sure to find out how well they interact with other dogs, whether it's at the dog park or even on a walk.

A typical day

I love taking dogs on long walks for my exercise instead of going to the gym. I like taking them to dog parks if you are ok with them. If not, there are many walks in the area to take time together. Playing fetch is great and I know it’s the most important part of their day.

I work in Bend at Oregon State University, Monday to Friday from about 9am-4:30pm. I have time during my lunch hour to spend time with pets. If you request, I can also work remotely either half my day or a full day, based on your preference for me to be with your pets. I like taking dogs out for morning and evening walks to ensure they have time outside.
