“It was indeed a lucky day for me when I found Heather. I was concerned that I wouldn't be able to find a good sitter for our Ella when our previous sitter was no longer available. I have to say Heather more than provided a replacement......she excelled beyond my expectations!I can not say enough how having Heather's services gave me peace of mind while I was away.I really appreciate the emails and photo updates during my trip.I find her very knowledgeable and passionate about what she does.She's fantastic!!! If you are looking for someone to care for your furry friend/s, DO NOT LOOK ANY FURTHER, you have found the right lady!!!! Love, Ella & Family”

About: I am a very detail oriented, dependable and responsible person, but most of all - I have a heart for animals (especially doggies)! I was the kid that snuck puppies into my bedroom, found a stray kitten and spent all the time in the world to make them feel safe until they played with me. I love being around animals and taking care of them, as they provide the best unconditional love and give back in more ways than one. I know how hard and stressful it can be to leave your fur babies all alone when you're away, so I want to share my love and care to ensure the best care for you and your fur babies! I am very flexible! Just give me a call to set up a meet n greet. I can work with you to accommodate your needs. I’m happy to house sit in your home or take care of your fur baby in my home. Of course, I do a meet n greet to ensure everyone is comfortable!

Charlotte is still one amazing gal! She took great care of our older puppies on a weekend trip. She was very patient with their rambunctious behavior. She keeps us updated with pictures and texts, I trust her to care for our fur babies more than most family members! 😆 Thanks, again!

Camryn B and his wife are the sweetest couple and I appreciate them both for watching after my fur child. Camryn sent me photos out of the blue which really set me at ease. I was very anxious about leaving him but they made it easy and I look forward to reaching out to Camryn in the future.

Christina did an amazing job taking care of my dog! She was so caring, attentive, and communicative throughout the entire stay. I really appreciated the multiple pictures and updates she sent, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was happy and well taken care of. My dog was very comfortable with Christina, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about his well-being. I would definitely recommend Christina to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, loving, and dependable to care for their pet! ❤️🐾
Kristina was absolutely wonderful with Callie and Sylvie! We needed care pretty last minute due to having to travel out of state for a funeral, and she was incredibly accommodating, flexible, and friendly from the start. She went above and beyond to make sure our girls were comfortable, loved, and well taken care of. I was initially a little hesitant about how they would do in a home with multiple kids since they aren’t around smallerchildren very often, but they had no issues whatsoever! They loved all the extra attention from Kristina’s boys and also enjoyed spending time with their dog, Teddy, and even their cat. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Callie and Sylvie were being cared for and treated like part of the family, especially during such a difficult and unexpected trip. We’re very grateful to Kristina and her family for taking such great care of our girls and would absolutely book with her again! 🐾❤️

This was my first time leaving my boy & everything from the profile to communication made me feel really comfortable. I knew this was going to be a place he would be comfortable as well. If you are going to leave your furry family I can guarantee this is the best spot.

We loved Joceyln when we first met her. Our dogs took right to her. She watched our Mako while our Lucy was going through treatments. Mako made two great friends Jocelyn and her dog Whiskey. We got updates and pictures and could tell Mako loved his time away. A blessing to know your pet is taken care of while away. We will definitely use Joceyln again! Can’t thank her enough.

Bella was amazing with my anxious dog. She helped him relax by taking him for long trail walks and was great about letting him roam the house instead of using a crate. Great communication, daily photo updates, and very responsive by reaching out and asking questions when she had a concern. My pup came home happy and tired! I will definitely use her again
