Highlights
Pet care experience
Energetic, attentive, communicative
I've been in need of flexible, affordable dog care myself. I will care for your pet as much as I care for my own. I'm lucky to have a very cool 12 year old Aussie mix, who accepts others into our home and on our adventures. I take long walks each day with the dogs, and take them where ever I can to get them out of the house and exercised. And I provide a clean, open space for overnights. I have a large fenced-in back yard to get all the zoomies out. See photos. And I have a spacious home with plenty of space for a pup to snooze in a quiet corner of their own! NOTE: "For drop off before noon, or pickups after 5, I charge an additional $10 fee and an additional $10 for the basic rate over Holiday weekends". NOTE: I no longer sit dogs under 2 years of age, or dogs who are not 100 % house trained. Thank you for understanding.

Safety, trust & environment
I am with my pets full time. I have in depth discussions with pet parents to fully understand all needs for pet and parent. I ensure any pet would fit well woth any other pet in my care before simply accepting all requests. If a senior can't handle a puppy then I won't likely take a puppy unless the puppy were comfortable being kept separate for example.
Ratings and reviews
Heather has been very kind and patient with our puppy. She provided continuous updates, and feedback to our responses.
Heather is awesome as always. She really takes the time to play with our dogs when she does drop in visits.
Heather is awesome and takes great care of our pups!
Heather was an absolute gem with our high-energy golden retriever, Luca! She handled his energy perfectly and kept us in the loop with frequent video updates that showed just how happy and settled he was. We especially appreciated how she accommodated our request to keep him off the furniture. We'd book Heather again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!
Heather was fantastic. Got lots of updates from her. Was worried because I have an older high maintenance dog, but she wasn’t concerned and took great care of him.
Heather was easy to communicate with, flexible and accommodating, sent many picture/video updates, and took excellent care of our dog. We would recommend her and plan to use her services again in the future.

Schedule
I work full time in marketing from my home so I am available to care for dogs at any time. I try to cater to dogs break and food timing needs. Bookings start after 8 AM, and pickups preferred no water than 8 PM.
