Pet care experience
I have over twenty years of experience as an animal caretaker, including the 2 dogs and 1 cat that I currently share my home with. I am firm, yet gentle with animals, and I believe in direct and clear communication with both animals and people. I always prefer to ask a question rather than make an assumption, especially when it concerns caring for a member of someone's family. My schedule is fairly flexible, and I would like to care for your pet in the way that they are accustomed to, though I am not available during the later evenings. I also have a 4-year-old that would sometimes be accompanying me on our walks or care-giving visits. I find that taking dogs around the neighborhood, or out to the parks, and going for a walk is as enriching and enjoyable for them as it is for me, which is part of the reason I am so excited about exploring the opportunity to walk dogs professionally. Thanks for reading, and I hope to hear from you soon!
Reviews
Heather has an amazing demeanor with dogs. She is not only very good at keeping them under control, she is kind and loving towards them. I have seen her handle many dogs at once and they listen to her and do not overwhelm her. She is a great person to trust with your pets, as I do.
I've never seen a dog that didn't like Heather. Whether it was a stray wandering the street in a bad part of town (which she rescued and re-homed) or a dog on the trail. She has a calm presence that dogs love. Heather often dogsits my dog and I always come home to a happy dog, great stories of his antics and occasionally a goofy photo of him being part of the pack.
