House Sitting • Dec 02, 2025

Heath did a wonderful job sitting Murphy. Murphy was very happy when we got home. He had been well fed, and well cared for. We would definitely use Heath again.

Heath loves all animals, big or small. He grew up on a farm with cattle, pigs, horses, cats, dogs, rabbits and more! Heath has always been a responsible, caring pet owner who also loves to exercise with them. When he'd go for a walk/run, he would also take his dog. He is always willing to provide photos and check-ins with pet owners to make sure they know their pet is safe and in good hands. I have always trusted Heath to care for my dogs and reptiles while I was away, so I would highly recommend him to anyone searching for a caretaker for their pet as well!

Schedule

I work remotely, so I'm always home in the morning and into the afternoon. I'm sure my co-workers would love to see your pets. It's very easy for me to step away for a few minutes to check in on your pet to make sure their needs are met.

Safety, trust & environment

I don't have any pets myself, so your pet could have free run of my place should they be trusted enough to do so. I have a small yard where I can take your dog out to run around. Lastly, I'm about a block from the rail trail, so if I have an opportunity and your dog is interested, I could take them for a run.

A typical day

I live one block from the rail trail, so it would be easy to take your dog out for a run. I also have a decently long yard, so if they are good with voice commands, we could play some fetch. Does your dog love to play tug? I'm more than willing to tug back.

Let me know your pet's likes and dislikes. As long as you pet is chill, I don't care about breed. Personality is much more important than what their parents are.
