A Wagging Good Time!

Hi, I’m Heather! Caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up in the country, my family was always rescuing, rehabilitating, and nurturing animals of all kinds. Over the years I’ve cared for everything from dogs and cats to raccoons, deer, owls, crows, and many other animals in need. My love for animals has always been at the heart of who I am. As a pet owner myself, I understand that every pet is family. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to provide the same love, patience, and attention that you would give them yourself. That’s exactly the level of care I strive to provide. I also have experience caring for pets with medical needs. My own St. Bernard had required allergy treatments and medications, so I’m comfortable administering oral medications, injections, and insulin when needed. I’ve also cared for diabetic dogs that required daily insulin injections, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s individual care routine. While my experience hasn’t come from working in a veterinary clinic or boarding facility, it comes from years of hands-on care, rescuing animals, and loving pets with all kinds of personalities and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, endless playtime, quiet companionship, or extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is simple: to care for your pets as if they were my own, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they’re in loving, dependable hands. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!

Safety, trust & environment

I believe every pet is happiest when their normal routine is maintained, so I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs and your instructions. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, their comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide plenty of love, attention, playtime, exercise, fresh food and water, potty breaks, and lots of affection. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality—whether they’re energetic and playful, shy and reserved, or simply enjoy quiet companionship. I also have experience administering medications, including oral medications and injections, when needed. For cats, I understand how important routine and a low-stress environment are. I keep litter boxes clean, provide enrichment through play, ensure they have fresh food and water, and give them space or affection based on their individual personalities. I also have experience with bathing, eye care for breeds that require extra attention, and gentle grooming. While you’re away, I know how reassuring updates can be, so I’m happy to send regular photos and messages so you can see how your furry family member is doing. My goal is for you to return home to a happy, healthy, and well-loved pet who has been cared for just like one of my own.
