Information Heather D. would like to know about your pet

It's important to know your dog's behavior, personality traits and typical routine. I want this to be a positive and carefree experience for all of us and you to be entierly worry free doing your fur baby's stay. Happy to do a meet and greet before booking!

A typical day

I love taking long walks with my pups. I have found that about an hour long walk each day makes them so happy (and burns some of that energy). Walking them has become theraputic for me as well.

Pet care experience

I have been around pets for as long as I can remember. I work mostly remote, so I can be home often and very flexible for drop off and pick up times. In addition to a very pet friendly home (I have two pomskies and three cats) and large fenced in yard, I live in a dog friendly neighborhood perfect for walking on leash. I currently walk my two pups an average of 2 miles a day, at least five days a week. I have fostered kittens for the SPCA several times (all three of my cats are foster fails). I have an extra room that can accommodate visiting cats during their stay if that is what THEY prefer (I know cats can be moody).

Heather walked our two dogs while we on vacation. They just loved her! She was reaponsible, friendly and communicative. She sent us three or four wonderful photos every day! We will definitely be using her in the future! Thank you, Heather!!

Heather was so wonderful with our dogs! She even came over for a meet and greet a few days before to make sure she knew the ins and outs of their care! My dogs are high energy and she wasn’t phased at all, handled them so well with so much care!

We are so lucky to have found Heather! She gives daily updates of our pets and sends videos and pictures, which makes our time away a lot less difficult. She truly cares about our pets!
