I want to be their best friend 🐾

Pet care experience

I'm a huge animal lover and will treat your fur baby as if it was my own! Animals are a passion of mine and I have taken care of them for years. I used to have my own business before following my husband to this state. I would love to help out in any way that I can. Going for a walk, dropping in for a visit, dog boarding, doggy daycare, medicine administration, you name it and I’ll help with it! I have volunteered at many shelters as well as worked at a doggy day care. I have ample experience, love, cuddles and play time to give your fur babies. I look forward to hearing from you! I have references available upon request! I look forward to meeting your fur baby! My availability is pretty open!

I cannot say enough good things about Heather! She takes great care of our boys! It’s such a relief to know that our pets are well taken care of when we go out of town. We’re already planning a time for her to come back because our pets are so happy when she’s there.

Oh my goodness, Heather is the BEST! She has by far been our best Rover sitter experience! She communicated multiple times a day, sending lots of pictures and videos so we could see our happy boys. She took amazing care of our sweet pets and our house was spotless when we came home. I highly recommend Heather and I can’t wait to have her stay with our boys again!

Heather was awesome!! We’ve only had our dog for a few months so we were incredibly nervous to leave him at home when we went out of town for a family function. I hired Heather to do 4x/day check-ins, and she totally went above and beyond! First off, she took the job with almost no notice since our original arrangement fell through at the last minute, which was huge. When we were out, she spent hours hanging out and walking with our boy, and even stayed the night at the house with him of her own volition. She sent plenty of pictures every day so we never had a doubt that he was living his best life, I think he was a little depressed when she left. She was extremely communicative and asked questions when she wasn’t 100% sure on something, so we felt completely at ease being thousands of miles away and knowing our that our boy was getting the care and attention he needed. Bottom line, as much as I would love to keep Heather on retainer as our exclusive dog sitter, it’s my moral imperative to recommend her to as many people as possible because she’s completely awesome :)

Heather was great! My dog is very energetic and needs lots of attention and Heather definitely provided this for her. She also sent daily pictures and updates! Will be using again ?

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. I would also like to know their veterinarians information! Thank you!

A typical day

Our day will be full of whatever your dog needs or wants to do. I want to keep him/her on a similar schedule that they're used to and make them feel as comfortable as possible while their loved ones are on vacation. I love mental/physical simulation if they are high energy, or if they are more of a snuggles and a movie type of dog I'm great with that as well! Just let me know what your fur baby loves.
