Dog Lover, Dog Mom, Dog Life

Hi dog parents! My name is Heather and I am a dog mom to the sweetest shy boy, Stevie. He was adopted from Koreank9rescue where I often volunteer. I had cats and dogs growing up so I have experience with both. I've had dogs of different breeds my whole life and after raising my own, I am an expert at all things related to taking care of and playing with any fur baby. No one really knows how hard it is to raise your dog in NYC unless they've been through being a dog parent.. so I would take care of your fur baby as if he/she were my own. I am responsible, reliable, and will give your pup so much love. I'm looking forward to playing with your pup soon!

Heather was so great with my pup, I could not recommend her more. She was so accommodating and helpful when my sitter cancelled last minute.

Heather has taken such good care of our six-month-old pup! Joey is always super excited to see Heather, which is a great sign. And Heather is extremely communicative with us throughout, sharing updates and photos/videos. We trust Heather a ton with our pup!

Heather is fantastic! This was my first time booking with her as my usual dog sitter was out of town. Heather did a meet and greet with me and Harley, and all throughout the week she sent me pictures and updates. She is super responsive and Harley had a great time. Will definitely use her again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
