Availability

Pet care fits into my life as something I truly enjoy, so I make time for it around my primary job. I often work on holidays and my days off, which means my weekly availability can vary. Because of this, I’m not able to commit to a recurring schedule, but I always do my best to keep my calendar updated. Even if a day looks unavailable, I may still be able to fit in a walk or visit—so please don’t hesitate to reach out and ask. I’ll do everything I can to make it work!

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Before every walk, I take a few minutes to make sure your pup’s leash, collar, or harness is fitted correctly and secure. I have experience with many types of equipment, including prong collars, slip collars, martingales, gentle leaders, front-clip harnesses, and step-in harnesses, so I’m comfortable adjusting to whatever your dog normally uses. I also check that your pup seems comfortable and ready to head out before we begin. During our time together, I focus on making the walk enjoyable, safe, and tailored to your dog’s needs—whether that means keeping a steady pace, taking breaks, or allowing extra time for sniffing. My goal is to treat every dog with the same care and attention I’d want for my own.

Information Nataly S. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know as much as possible about your pup so I can give them the best care. I’d like to know if your dog is reactive in any way and how they do around other dogs, people, or loud noises. Please let me know if they have any special routines—such as being fed after their walk, needing water breaks, or taking medication. I also like to know if they typically go potty (#1 or #2) during their walks and if they’re comfortable walking the full 30 or 60 minutes, or if they prefer shorter strolls with more breaks. If your dog has a favorite walking route or a specific path they’re used to, I’m happy to follow it so they feel comfortable and enjoy their time outside. The more I know about your dog’s habits, preferences, and needs, the better I can make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for.

A typical day

I believe every walk should be more than just exercise, it should be a fun and enriching experience for your pup. Dogs spend a lot of time at home, so I make sure our walks give them a chance to stretch their legs, explore, and engage their senses. If there’s a park nearby, I love taking them there so they can enjoy the fresh air, new sights, and all the exciting smells. I also make sure to let them take their time sniffing around and discovering new spots, since that’s an important way dogs experience the world. Whether it’s a brisk walk for extra energy or a slower, relaxing stroll, I always adjust to your dog’s pace and needs. My goal is to keep every pup happy, safe, and content until they’re back home, tail wagging.

Cat Care You Can Trust – 8+ Yrs

Cat care experience

Hello! I’m Nataly. I’m a proud cat mom to Silver, Moon, and Rooney, who I absolutely adore. I’ve been caring for cats on Rover for over 5 years and have experience with a wide range of feline personalities and needs—including kittens, senior cats, special needs cats, and multi-cat households. I’m also comfortable administering medication when needed. During my drop-in visits, I make sure your cat is well cared for and your home is kept tidy. Visits typically include meal times (with clean bowls and plates every time), litter box scooping, and plenty of playtime or cuddle time—whatever your cat prefers. I understand how hard it can be to leave your furry friend behind, which is why I go the extra mile to keep you updated. I write detailed Rover cards and share multiple photos and videos at every visit so you’ll always know how your cat is doing. My goal is to give you peace of mind and ensure your cat feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I also offer complimentary meet-and-greets, where I can stop by to review your instructions, answer any questions, and of course meet your cat in person before the first booking.
