I work from home part time, so I am almost always around and able to take your pup on frequent pee breaks, or to give your kitty scratches and love, all day long. As a way to relax, I enjoy long walks around the neighborhood, and would love to have your pup join me.

Safety, trust & environment

All animals under my care are treated like members of the family. I like to think of myself as the fun aunty who gets to love on your fur baby while you are away, and that the more fun they have with me, the happier they will be to see you when you get back. I believe that supervision is key to safe and quality care, so your pet will not be left home alone for long, if at all. If your dog is crate trained, I am happy to keep up their usual routine.

Information Heather A. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know your dogs general routine, and if they have any particular likes, dislikes, or obedience/training needs, and how they feel about having kids around!

A typical day

Depending on your pooch's energy levels and exercise needs, your pup and I will spend our time together exploring the neighbourhood, running at the local fenced dog park (only a block away!), exploring the trails of pacific spirit park, or visiting the Spanish banks dog beach.

Pet care experience

I have always been an animal lover. As a kid I had almost every pet under the sun! I often was the neighborhood pet sitter in my youth. Now, I am a single mom and work from home, and I have long days home alone while my kids are at school to hang with your fur-baby. And the kids are often the highlight of your dogs stay with us as they have infinite energy to play, practice your dogs favourite tricks, and snuggle. We live in a pet-friendly house, with lots of outdoor space, and are just steps away from a fenced dog-park.

Loved Heather! She took such good care of my girl and treated her like one of the family. My dog felt so comfortable with them. Lovely photo updates of a very unphotogenic dog. Couldn't be happier.

Heather has been a wonderful host for my senior dog. She was flexible and provided lots up updates. Chester was very well taken care of. She’ll definitely be my first go-to next time I travel.
