Please read to the end before you make a booking.
At this moment I do only House sitting and Home visits for your pets :) It can be dogs, cats, chooks etc ...
Hi I’m Natalia and I live in Bilambil Heights. My husband and I moved here couple of years ago from Sydney where I have been doing dog minding for 4 years. I was looking after a variety of dogs – absolutely different breeds, sizes and ages and no doubt your pet also will be surrounded by care and love as if it were my own one. And don’t worry – I will always send you photos of your furry kids.
Now we live in our own house with fenced backyard. I’m a self-employed artist and spend most of my time at home in my studio.
Dogs always sleep inside, we watch TV together in the afternoon, they help me with my work during the day and of course they have daily walks.
I used to have different number of dogs in the house, but now I prefer to have only 1 dog at a time. Exception – few dogs from one family and school holidays, when overlaps can happen.
So I can pay plenty attention to each pup.
In Russia (where I am from) I used to volunteer at a dog shelter where we had over 100 abandoned dogs. We were socializing them, walking them and trying to make their tails wag again.
Please note that rates for Pet hosting are for 24 HOURS, so if you need to drop off your dog in the morning and pick it up in the afternoon Doggy day care rate will be applied for that day.
All check outs should be done before 9 pm.
Sorry, but I do not accept:
- Puppies. I love all dogs, especially cute and adorable pups, but every owner knows how much attention little ones need. My work requires concentration, so I can not look after too active and busy pups 24 hours a day, which getting even more playful if other dogs around. Thank you for understanding.
- Overexcited or anxious dogs. I had different experiences and know how hard it can be.
PLEASE Make sure that your dog is:
- TOILET TRAINED!
- friendly with other dogs (if not - let me know and I will try to avoid overlaps with other dogs)
- can stay at home by itself, because I spend the most of my time at home, but still need to go out sometimes. So I want your dog feel comfortable when I have to leave for an hour or two.
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. 7 days before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
Natalia is a thoughtful and conscientious sitter. She sent daily updates with photos, took time to get to know our anxious dog and walked her every day. The house was left neat and tidy and our pup was happy and playful when we came home. It was great to know our pooch was in caring hands. As far as value goes, the cost was definitely worth the peace of mind. Thanks Natalia!
Natalia is incredible! This was our first time leaving our two dogs, one of which can be quite anxious when meeting new people. After meeting Natalia, we decided to proceed with her house-sitting option. We were able to enjoy our time away so much more, knowing that our dogs were in great care in the familiarity of their own home. We received daily updates and photos of them both looking so happy, comfortable and relaxed. They also enjoyed walks and lots of cuddles. I highly recommend Natalia and am very glad to have met her. Thank you for your patience, care and such a professional service.
