Pet care experience

I ❤️ PETS!

Some pricing notes for house sitting: $60 is the base rate for 3 hours or less (can book it as "Drop In" if you want!), any hour past that is an additional $10. 5 hours at your home = $80. I will not leave the home at all during this time. Overnights / 24 Hour Care: If I can leave the home, $85/day and if you want me there non stop, it's $120/day. Get ready for tons of photos and videos! I am extremely communicative, and love showing owners how their lil baby is doing. I love animals SO much, and have been doing Rover, pet watching for friends, and friends of friends for years. I also grew up with 4 dogs and 4 cats (not all at once🤣), and my family still has 2 dogs. Truly my favorite serotonin boost.

I can’t recommend Heather enough! My picky tortie even fell in love with her after just one night… literally unheard of. They were sleeping in the bed together and Suzy was demanding to be little spoon. I can’t stress how much of a cat whispering magic human this even requires to be possible! It’s a first in mine and Suzy’s 8 years together, her falling in love with a stranger so quickly. Besides her general spellcasting, Heather is an all around stellar sitter. So communicative and sending oodles of photos and videos everyday, proactive and knowing handling kitty duties and household stuff alike with very little direction or quick response on my part (was out of the country with little cell service), and overall a win win for me and Suzy in every sense. We’re so grateful to have found her!!!

Heather took amazing care of our cat while we were away! He can be a bit high maintenance, but she was completely unfazed by the chaos. He was clearly well taken care of, and I would be happy to have Heather watch him again any time!

Wish there was more than 5 stars to give! Heather went above and beyond to make sure Freddie was well cared for and even stayed later than expected to make sure he wasn’t alone and anxious. She gave plenty of updates throughout her stay. Highly recommend!!

Schedule

I own my business, and mostly work from home, so I'm free a lot of the time. I can make my schedule around your furry friend!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Heather can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Please let me know if your dog is aggressive towards other dogs, and has any weird habits I should be aware of so I'm not texting you with concern :)
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
