About Me

I launched Whiskers, Feathers & Fur after losing a very beloved pet who sadly passed away. Since losing our cat Rocky, I have had the burning need to help animals and enrich their lives as much as possible.

My experience has led to me volunteering at several charities, including the National Animal Welfare Trust (NAWT) and fostering for the RSPCA, along with boarding guide dog puppies and adopting pets (we currently have a total of 14 who we love and adore).

I enjoy enriching animals' lives and researching new and creative ideas to incorporate this into my work. 

I have a special place in my heart for rescues and also offer the service of building confidence with dogs, slow introductions to socialising, helping them overcome fears and most importantly building a strong bond so that they know they can trust me.

Whiskers Feathers & Fur is a Pet Sitting, Dog Walking & Boarding Service in and around the Croxley Green area of Hertfordshire.

PAWSITIVE REVIEWS

Natalia was very helpful! She came everyday for 4 days for an hour to walk my dog and spend some time with her. She was very friendly and warming and I loved how gentle she was with my dog. She sent me updates including videos and pictures of how my dog was. Would definitely recommend and use her again!

I would definitely recommend Natalia for pet sitting. I have a very nervous and shy rescue cat. Natalia made a lot of effort to ensure my cat wasn’t stressed by my absence or a stranger being in the house. She brought toys and other things to stop my cat getting bored. I got regular photos and updates while I was away, reassuring me my cat wasn’t hiding under the bed while I was away, and even getting to the stage where she would let Natalia stroke her. Will definitely use Natalia next time I’m away.

Natalia is a super sitter for our dogs. She invests so much of her energy and thoughts into making the time she spends with them the best it can be. Natalia plans enrichment opportunities for them and they clearly enjoy themselves! One of our dogs is a nervous rescue and Natalia has worked hard to calmly build bond with her. We would not hesitate to highly recommend Natalia for any pet care needs. 5 ⭐️!!

Joanna Marie

We were so lucky to find Natalia...not only do our dogs adore her but she is absolutely lovely, reliable and trustworthy. She looked after our chickens when we went on holiday and walks our dogs for us. It makes such a difference when you know your pets are cared for by a true animal lover who does such a good job because they love your animals as much as you do. Would highly recommend.

Gayle Bisbey

Absolutely perfect pet sitting service, Natalia looked after our cat for 7 days, sent updates every day and made sure he was happy. Highly recommended!

Karl Vincent

AMAZING! Don't hesitate in choosing Natalia to care for your pets while you are away from them. she is completely dedicated to any animal and loves them as if they were her own. We boarded our 4 guinea pigs with her for a week and was updated daily with photos/videos and information on what they have been doing that day. Great care was taken to make sure they were happy, comfortable and entertained. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Emma Cotton

Natalia took great care of our cat, Charlie. They were friends straight away and she took care to take top notch care of him. I was nervous about leaving him before, but would be very happy to leave him with Natalia again. She genuinely cared about keeping him happy, entertained and well fed! Thank you.

Claire Gallagher

Words cannot describe how Natalia cares above and beyond for the animals in her care..... Natalia cared for our rabbits for 5 days at her home, groomed them gave them fresh veggies daily choices of different hays, let them out daily to run around even though the hutch or should I say 4 hutches in 1 that they get to stay in is MASSIVE, ensures they were cool in the heatwave.... I could go on and on as the list is endless for what she done to ensure they were happy safe and LOVED AS IF HER OWN❤️💙🐰🐰 our bunnies will forever go to Natalia now whenever we need care. thank you from the bottom of our hearts Natalia for taking such good care of Herbie & Sadie xxxx❤️🐰💙🐰

Clare Joanne Williams

I was very happy with the service from Natalia. She was friendly and helpful, allowed me to meet her at her home and see her own cats, which made me feel at ease. Martha (my cat) was always in safe and capable hands and even after my booking, Natalia has stayed in contact sending ideas to keep Martha entertained and happy, and suggestions of things to buy for her.
During her visits I received lots of videos and messages to update me. I would definitely recommend Natalia and will use her again myself in the future.

Natasha Barrett-Smith

Natalia was amazing and the care, love and attention she gave our rabbits whilst we were away was second to none. Daily updates and photos along with tips as we are new rabbit owners.
She also has been incredible at helping to find our tortoise, going way beyond any service. A real pro who's clearly passionate about what she does and the animals she looks after.
