About: I have a genuine love for animals, attention to detail, and hands-on experience with dogs of all ages and needs. I’ve worked with puppies on basic training and housebreaking routines, and I’m equally comfortable caring for senior dogs who may need medication, a gentler pace, or extra comfort. I pride myself on being reliable, calm, and intuitive—tuning into each dog’s personality and routine to ensure they feel safe and happy while you're away. My goal is always to provide the same level of care and affection I would want for my own pet. I am currently working part time, fully remote so I have plenty of time to devote to your animals!! I also have plenty of space in my home and backyard! I have a park next to my place, a great space for long walks, and plenty of space, I do not have other animals. I am also willing to travel to clients home for a stay!

“Natalie took excellent care of my dog! She was very communicative during the booking process and provided prompt answers to all of my questions to help put my mind at ease. Natalie’s place was also very spacious and provided a lot of room for my (relatively big) dog to play. She also provided regular updates with photos during my dog’s stay - I would definitely book again.”

“I have a great feeling of peace, knowing that my Marcel is being cared for by Elisabeth. She is attentive, loving and gives great care to our dog Marcel. Marcel was right at home with Elisabeth and did not want to leave. It’s important to me that Marcel not be stressed or anxious and she provides that type of calm atmosphere needed. I needed a later time to pick him up and Elizabeth accommodated me and told me not to rush or worry. Marcel was very happy with his long walks! I want to keep her all to myself. She is truly a wonderful person and can be trusted with the care of your special pet.”

“Todd is wonderful for boarding our dogs. Although Pepper, the male dog, is scared of everything due to his trauma of being a street dog in Oman, Pepper became comfortable with Todd in less than 10 minutes. Todd took our dogs for a walk to the park next to his house almost every day and our dogs were having a good time walking in the forest. Our dogs love to go out in the backyard. Todd's fenced backyard gave a nice playground for our dogs. Thank you, Todd !!”

“I had a two-night trip out of state and it was the first time I had no family or friends available to watch my 2-year-old corgi, Athena. I was really nervous and sad to leave her with someone new but Gabriela's willingness to do a meet-and-greet and her prompt communication and seeing Athena not even look back at me when she went to stay with Gabriela (despite breaking my heart) made me as comfortable as I could be with the idea. I knew Gabriela made Athena feel loved and comfortable and safe (which eased my fears) when I saw several smiling pictures per day of my fur baby and Gabriela. I was positive I made the right --and best-- decision when I picked Athena up today and my sweet girl was all smiles. Gabriela said they had a great weekend and graciously laughed it off when she said --as I predicted--that Athena's only thing the whole weekend was when she barked at all the cleaning products as Gabriela cleaned her apartment. I highly recommend talking to Gabriela if you're looking for someone to love and care for your fur babies as if they were her own.”

We couldn’t be happier with the care Lucky and Bella received! 🐾❤️ Mahamat and family were looked after with so much kindness, patience, and genuine affection, and it gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands while we were away. It was clear that Lucky and Bella felt comfortable, safe, and very well cared for. We came home to two happy and relaxed dogs, which says everything! We’re extremely grateful and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable to look after their pets.
