Plenty of fun and space to play!

Pet care experience

Hello! I welcome your dog(s) to come spend some time with me & my pups! We are currently available for weekend boarding, or daycare Monday - Friday! I work from home Monday - Friday and can accommodate most dogs!! We welcome house trained and crate trained dogs of all sizes. There are times I may need to run errands, so crate trained is very helpful for us to make your pup’s stay more enjoyable! Lucy is a mixed breed dog, weighing about 35 pounds. She is about 6 now and slowing down just a bit. Bella is a 1 yr old Pyrenees/Border Collie that is incredibly patient with dogs of all sizes and LOVES to play! Some of her favorites are tug, chase, and keep away. We live very close to Ewing dog park, so if your dogs are registered, we can take them there, too! We do have a cat, she’s declawed and is pretty brave around dogs. Her, Bella, and Lucy are friends and she does well with them. I do ask that your dog be ok with cats enough to not “hunt” her. She will leave most dogs alone, she’s very chill. We offer a fenced backyard, the dogs have access to the yard via a doggy door from my walk out basement. This allows them the freedom to come and go as they wish while we’re home! I am more than comfortable with most sizes of dogs. Bella loves playing with other dogs and Lucy sometimes shows her age by just staying back! Please don’t hesitate to ask any questions! I look forward to offering your pup both a playful and relaxing stay while you’re working or away!

Heather was super welcoming and loving of our rambunctious dog! I'm so glad Copper got to spend the weekend with Heather and Lucy, and Heather made sure to keep me updated of any mishaps Copper may have had. I will definitely be contacting Heather again!

Heather kept my dog Millie over Christmas this year while I was traveling. I have only had Millie for a few months, and she was a breeder in a puppy mill until just before I adopted her. She is extremely anxious and tends to run away when she gets scared. Heather was super keyed in to her needs, and made her right at home. She made sure that Millie was comfortable, and was very careful to make sure that she didn't make a run for it! She also gave Millie her medicine every day, and kept me updated with pictures and videos the whole time I was gone. Heather's dog, Lucy, was a great influence for Millie, and helped keep her calm and comfortable while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Heather as a dogsitter!

We love fun loving, social dogs. We're close to a Des Moines dog park & would love to take your pup with us if they're registered! I also prefer crate trained dogs. It helps with bedtime and if I need to run errands. Over the weekend, your dog won't be alone more than 60 mins at a time.
