Availability
I have a very flexible schedule since I work from home as a Freelance Photo Editor! This is also crucial especially in cases of last minute care needs or inclement weather. I can also accommodate pet care that requires me to travel to PA, NJ and MD!

About Heather B.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I'm a huge proponent of communication! The more information I have, the better care I can give your pup. I'll bring a friendly, common sense approach to your pet's care with the knowledge that I will treat your fur baby and home just like they were my own! If there are any concerns or questions, I have no problem reaching out right away.
Information Heather B. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know of any special accommodations for your pet! I do have experience with puppies, senior dogs and currently own a pup that is half blind with epilepsy. Allergies, routines, likes/dislikes, duration of physical activity, favorite toys/foods, aggression, quirks are all very important to know!
A typical day
Depending on your dogs energy levels, a typical day would involve a revolving amount of physical activity, such as walks, light runs, hiking, playing tug of war, going to dog parks (if applicable). Your pets will be given a great deal of attention, particularly as it relates to their habits, likes and routine. Lots of affection, snuggles and belly rubs are always a staple of any visit!

Pet care experience
Animals have been an integral and regular part of my life since I was a kid - I couldn't imagine life without them! Not only have I kept a myriad of animals as pets over almost 2 decades, I currently reside with 3 wonderful rescue pups ranging in size from a 43lb German Short Haired Pointer/German Shepherd puppy, a 38lb German Shepherd/Terrier mix to an almost 75lb Yellow Labrador. Since living in the N. Wilmington area, I've also been a dog mom to Pilot (Labrador/Hound Mix) and Agnes (Treeing Walker Coonhound) who have since passed (I think we can all agree cancer needs to go away!) but whose memories are very much alive and loved. I treat my pets just as I would family from each pup having their own stocking at Christmas, cheeseburger birthday dinners and an annual "pup party" with different themes and a dog boned shaped, dog friendly cake. I also routinely cook healthy meals and ensure lots of recreational time to enhance their daily lives! Additionally, I've taken care of an employer's pup for almost a decade for weeks to sometimes months at a time while also dropping in on neighbor's dogs when they need last minute help. If I could rescue more animals and give them their best lives, I would - in the meantime, I'd be more than happy to help your pet with walks, drop ins, play times and even sleepovers!
Reviews
Joining in on all the great reviews for Heather. She stayed with our two pups for two weeks while we were on vacation. Her care for our dogs allowed us to relax and not worry about home. It's a bonus to have someone who will do overnights and be a house sitter as well. Thank you Heather, so much!
Heather is the best. No question about it. She is 100% about the animals and their individual needs. She plays with them, comforts them, takes them outside and spends time with them and is a perfectionist about their food and medication schedules. You can trust Heather to care for your animals like they were her own.
Heather was super with our two dogs on walks, especially my barky hound and crazy beagle. She left a good note and pictures. Thanks so much!
I have no words to describe how happy I am with Heather! Gracie is a large energetic puppy and seemed to take to Heather right away! Heather kept me updated on all the exercise Gracie got as well as all the snuggle time. Gracie was a happy puppy when I got home and my house was immaculate! I will absolutely be asking for Heather again!
