Before the lights even come on, you can see Nauti slip right into “morning shift” mode — calm, focused, and impossibly sweet. He lifts his head from his spot by the bed, blinking like a sleepy little professional who understands that punctuality matters. When his mom whispers, “C’mon, let’s get the babies up,” he’s already padding toward the hallway with that eager determination Golden Retrievers are famous for. And because this is Nauti we’re talking about — the gentle soul of @nautidoggo — he treats the job less like a task and more like a tender family ritual he’s proud to lead.

The charm of the video is how seriously Nauti takes his job, which is probably why it’s doing so well online. His mom gives him a cue, and he rises from his bed with an urgency like he’s late for work. But he stretches in the hallway first, because of course he does; you can’t wake kids without a proper warm-up. Then he heads straight to their room, standing patiently until his mom opens the door like he’s the world’s politest employee.
Inside, two kids are fast asleep. Nauti climbs halfway onto the first one, placing his weight carefully, then gives soft licks until eyelids start to flutter. He moves to the second child with the same gentle determination, sniffing and nudging like he’s trying not to disturb the peace more than necessary. His mom whispers, “Say good morning,” and the whole room feels impossibly cozy.
When she encourages him again — “Get the babies up” — Nauti lets out a tiny, breathy awooo, like he knows he should whisper but still wants to contribute. For a second, he even flops onto his side like he might climb in and snooze with them instead. But duty calls, so he switches back to kisses, gently licking a little arm like it’s the final step in the wake-up protocol.
No wonder the comments are full of people begging for this exact service. We mean, who wouldn’t?
