Hi! I'm Heather and I am so excited to be able to offer my services to help with your pet's care. I find helping busy fur parents beneficial for everyone involved, especially your beloved 4-legged friend. I will care for your fur baby as if s/he were my own, and hope to build a lasting clientele where I will have unique relationships with all of the families I service. I have pets of my own as well. Currently in my home I have 1 female senior cat, 1 male hound mix dog who gets along with everyone, a small flock of 2 laying hens, and 3 pet rats. In the past I have had a dogs, puppies, cats, kittens, various rodents, chickens, and am comfortable with exotics as well, if you need care for them while you're away! Dog walking: I am happy to take your dog of any size for a walk around the neighborhood or on a nearby trail. I always clean up after the animals I am caring for, as well as keep their needs in mind during their walks. Every time I take your pup for a walk, you will see a map with your report card showing where we explored, along with any pics I capture along the way. When requesting dog walks, please give me a 2-hour time window so I can schedule to be sure everyone I see gets the care they need! Drop Ins: long work days? Vacation? I would be delighted to spend some time loving on your furry friend(s). When I drop in on your pet(s), you can expect we will go on a short walk (weather permitting) and/or play in the yard, maybe play a game of find the treat, feeding, medication if needed, and genuine interaction so your little guy or girl knows they are loved and their needs are met. I will be respectful of your home and your things. Please let me know where to find the things I will need to use (leash, treats, food, meds, litter, etc) so I can have the best time with your pet(s) as possible. I also clean up litter and food that gets scattered or any other messes your pet might make while in my care, so be sure to let me know where to find any related cleaning supplies. For cat drop-ins: unless your kitty needs a specific time for meds, I will plan to visit them sometime between 10am-4pm while I am out walking dogs, so please let me know if you need a specific time. For boarding: Please plan to drop off/pick up between 7-9am or 5-7pm My home has a fenced back yard, so your pup will be free to run around with mine every 2-3 hours (or more!). When your pup is our guest, they will be with my family and our pets, and definitely pet/snuggled/loved/walked whatever we happen to be doing they are welcome to join us. If we do leave the house, the dogs are crated/separated, with a camera, and never alone more than 3-4 hours.
