Safety, trust & environment

Safety and trust are a big priority for me! I think relationship building starts during the meet and greet. This is a great time to not only be introduced to your pet, but to start becoming accustomed to their environment and routine. I love to learn about what activities the pet likes to engage in as well as their favorite toys. I think it is also important to learn about how your pet interacts with other humans/pets in case there are any external interactions.

Information Heather B. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know about the pet’s current routine, including: feeding, bathroom, medication, and exercise schedule. I also like to have access to a veterinarian and emergency contact.

A typical day

I like to customize the activity to the pet that I am watching. Usually, if I am taking care of a dog, we would be engaging in activities like walks, fetch, tug-o-war, and occasionally training sessions to improve basic commands. For a cat, I enjoy using interactive toys, chase games, and puzzle toys.

High-energy, patient pet-sitter

Pet care experience

I have always been around and loved animals. As a child, I raised many beloved animals with my siblings, including: cats, dogs, rabbits, fish, turtles, ferrets, hermit crabs, and a horse. I started pet sitting when I was in middle school caring for our neighbor’s cat when they would go on vacation. Currently, I have three dogs back at home, including an Akita, German Shepherd, and English Setter. Each of whom I have trained since they were young. I also work as a volunteer with CSRA Humane Society, a local shelter in Augusta, in my freetime. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Neuroscience, and I am currently in graduate school to become a Dentist. I am seeking part-time work to help supplement my living expenses.

Heather has cared for pets independently since early high school. She has watched my dogs many times and is always timely, kind, and very good with my babies!
