I will love your pet like my own!
Pet care experience
I absolutely love all animals. I have decades of experience of taking care of my own pets plus others pet, including exotics. I also have many years of experience with senior pets, including my own dogs and cats plus pets with disabilities. I've given oral and inj medications to both dogs and cats over the years. Because I live in a condo with an unfenced yard, I enjoy taking dogs on many walks a day. They will get their exercise in. Just let me know the minimum number of walks and I'm sure I'll exceed that since I enjoy walking dogs. When boarding at a facility, they do not get the same individualized care that I can provide. They are able to free roam and even sleep with me if that's what they are used to. *For anyone looking for care outside my radius, we can discuss my additional charges before the Meet & Greet* I currently have 2 senior cats of my own(no dogs), 17 year old Zeus and 15 year old Iris. I adopted Zeus last year and Iris earlier this year. They bring me so much joy and I can't imagine life without them ❤️ They can be a bit standoffish initially when meeting another pet but they will warm up quickly. They both sleep a lot throughout the day and don't really do much other than sleep, eat and drink water. I can also separate your pet(s) from my cats if necessary with a gate that my cats are unable to climb due to their age. I prefer Meet and Greets for any new dog clients & cats that have disabilities or require medication and they are complimentary. They should not exceed 30 mins as I typically have other clients to attend to. I believe it is a great way to see if I'm a fit to take care of your pet(s). If not, I want you to find someone that is better suited. I only accept potty trained pets in my home & dogs that will not bark or howl in my condo. I want to respect my neighbors & their day to day lives. If you choose to have your pet(s) stay with me, at my home or yours, I will give them the care they deserve. If you prefer I crate them at any time, please let me know. I want to make sure they are comfortable in a home they are unfamiliar with. I will make sure they have all the loving support they deserve ❤️. I only accept pets in my home from the same family, so rest assured they will get plenty of attention and affection. I also live in a gated community with plenty of grass to walk your dog(s) & I like to avoid any other dogs out for walks, unless you are looking to socialize them. I'm able to walk your dog(s) several times a day if necessary. Just let me know what they prefer when it comes to distance. My neighborhood is very pet friendly and I really enjoy walking daily. I'm currently available for long term sitting. We can discuss rates and expectations. I do require a trial before doing such bookings.
Reviews
Heather went above and beyond in caring for our dog Penny! From the moment we dropped her off, we knew she was in good hands. Throughout the day, Heather sent us photos and updates, giving us peace of mind and allowing us to enjoy our time away. We couldn't be more grateful for her exceptional care and highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter.
Will easily pick Heather to walk my dogs again. Thank you for providing me with peace of mind while I was away from home.
Heather was amazing! I left my senior pup with her for Daycare and she sent plenty of videos and pics. I've never had anyone other than family care for him so I was very nervous to leave him. He has severe separation anxiety and doesn't get around very well but she completely put my mind at ease. I will definitely be using her services in the future! I highly recommend her and will be using her again for any of Copper's pet sitting needs. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would! THANK YOU!
Heather was so communicative and sent several updates a day without having to ask. She replied instantly when I messaged her every time. She seems to have extensive experience dealing with senior pets including ones with disabilities. She also has no issues giving medications as demonstrated during our initial Meet and Greet. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet care. Will continue to book with only her, hoping she has the availability!

I'm able to give them any medication after instructions. Please let me know what works best for them. I want them to feel comfortable enough with me and reduce any stress on them. I also have plenty of experience with disabled pets and we can go over their needs at the Meet & Greet.

Availability
I currently work at a hospital as a Pharmacy Technician and my shifts range from 4-8 hours. I also volunteer for Big Dog Ranch Rescue in Loxahatchee when I have extra time to do so. I have plenty of experience with oral medications and injections and deal with it daily. I am willing to stay at your home or mine plus to do just drop in for visits and/or walks. I can also travel with your pet and meet you at a predetermined location(such as a dog park) if that's more convenient for you.
