Love to exercise with dogs!
Pet care experience
Hi! I am a passionate dog lover and have adopted my own dog 2 years ago. In addition, I grew up with a family dog since I was 5 and first learned to care for dogs with him. I have occasionally house sat for families with dogs, and I worked as an apprentice with professional dog walkers/ trainers for the past two summers. I love playing with dogs and taking them out to exercise! In addition, since I have worked with dog trainers in the past I have some experience with basic training if you're interested! I use only positive reinforcement techniques. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions! During the summer my availability is pretty flexible. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your dog(s)!
Reviews
Heidi has been watch my two dogs, Roxy and Sherlock for the past two years. She is extremely reliable and always shows up with a positive, contagious attitude. She ensures that my two little guys get enough exercise and attention throughout the day and takes time to bring them extra toys and treats when they're missing their mom. She is very perceptive to our animals feelings and know exactly how to cheer them up. I trust her completely and anyone would be lucky to have her as a dog sitter!
As a professional dog trainer and walker, Heidi worked for me for several months. I highly recommend her! She was reliable, responsible and great with the dogs. She took direction well, made adjustments as needed, and took initiative. The pups all loved her and she was very gentle and sweet with them, which is the most important thing! I would completely trust my own fur babies with Heidi!
I have known Heidi for many years. She is attentive, responsible, and caring. I travel for work frequently and because my German Shepherd is getting old, I hate putting her in a kennel. Heidi is a fantastic house and animal sitter. I can leave the dog and my cat at my home with Heidi where the animals are most comfortable. And I can be away from home for extended periods, confident that all is well at home, and that the animals are loved and well cared for. As is the house. Heidi is neat, tidy, trustworthy and responsible and she cares as well for the house as she does for the animals. Brenda A.
