Highlights
Pet care experience
Thoughtful care for your pets
My style of pet care is warm, calm and attentive. I have experience with a wide range of pet needs. I genuinely take the time to understand each animal’s personality, routine, and comfort level so they feel safe and understood while their owners are away. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats across different life stages, including puppies, senior pets, and animals with anxiety or special care needs. I’m also comfortable with basic medication administration when needed and always make sure instructions are followed carefully. I’m certified in Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR through the Canadian Red Cross, which adds an extra layer of reassurance when it comes to safety and emergencies. Beyond the practical side of care, I think what really matters is how pets feel with me. I’m patient, calm, and consistent, and I aim to create a low-stress environment where pets can relax, trust, and feel at home until their family returns.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and familiar as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I follow instructions carefully, especially around feeding, walks, medication, and any specific habits or preferences each pet has. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs, whether that means calm companionship, playtime, exercise, or simply giving them space and reassurance. My goal is always to make sure they feel safe, understood, and well cared for. I also respect your home and keep things clean and tidy, including feeding areas, litter boxes where applicable, and any mess from walks or daily care. I make sure to follow all safety instructions closely so everything stays secure. I’m certified in Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR through the Canadian Red Cross, and I’m comfortable with basic medication if needed. Overall, I aim to make things easy and stress-free for both you and your pets while you’re away.
Ratings and reviews
Extremely thorough and made sure my cat was very well looked after! My apartment was left in better shape than when I left too, haha. Heather rocks!
Heather took wonderful care of my cat this summer. My kitty is usually shy with strangers but she took to Heather right away. I was impressed with Heather’s conscientiousness and communication, I had complete confidence in her.
Heather took good care of my cat and provided detailed updates and photos after every visit. This gave me great peace of mind. Heather is reliable, attentive, and made sure my cat was well fed, had fresh water, and received playtime and affection. She also communicated promptly and was thoughtful throughout the entire booking. Thank you Heahter :)
Heather was very thorough with getting to know our cat's needs, likes/dislikes, etc. and was very communicative with notes and photos. Heather also has a great energy and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, professional pet lover.
Heather was so amazing and attentive to our two cats’ needs. Immediately upon contacting her, I had a feeling she would be a wonderful sitter based on the fact that she took time to answer all my questions as a first time user of Rover. My intuition was correct, and she provided wonderful and detailed updates and lots (!!) of super cute pictures. We’re so grateful, thank Heather! Chaï and Pomelo surely thoroughly enjoyed your visits filled with play time, churus, and grooming sessions! We will definitely book with you again!
Extraordinaire ! Heather est une super catsitter. Un rayon de soleil pour mes chats et pour les personnes qui souhaitent s'absenter avec l'esprit tranquille ! Amazing! Heather is a fantastic cat sitter. She's a real ray of sunshine for my cats and for anyone who wants to go away with peace of mind!

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as I have a flexible schedule and can prioritize visits, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. I am able to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening care, as well as provide consistent attention for pets who need regular routines or extra support.
