I'm a former animal trainer.

Pet care experience

Hello! I have fifteen years professional animal care experience, as both a zookeeper and marine mammal trainer. My wife is also an animal caregiver. I've always had a connection with animals. My calm demeanor invites animals to feel safe and comfortable around me. I remain active so playing and running is not a problem. I do have reliable transportation. Prices for visits are the same as for walks because I spend time playing and socializing with the dogs. For boarders, we have a rabbit who would remain locked up while a dog is in the house. We also have a mix breed dog that is good with other dogs. We live in a house with a fenced in yard. The neighborhood also quiet that is perfect for walks. I hope to hear from you!

Heath is simply the best! Not only does he treat your animals as his own his skills as an animal care professional come in handy with anything unexpected that may come up. I would trust Heath with any of my pets and if I had kids I would trust him with them too!!

Heath is a great, reliable host. I have an elderly English Bulldog who requires lots of TLC, and Heath did a wonderful job of making sure Bella was comfortable. He carried her up and down stairs, administered daily pills and eye drops, and gave Bella lots of love and affection! I would highly recommend Heath for you pets!

Heath is really knowledgable with animals. He is incredibly caring with them. When Heath watched my dog for the weekend, he spent a lot of time taking him for walks, playing with him and giving him love and attention. I get very nervous leaving my dog with people since he is a rescue, but Heath calmed those fears. My dog had a great time with him! I recommend Heah to anyone!
