I work from home, my roommate teaches 3rd grade online, and her son does school online — so there’s always someone around to give pets attention. Between the three of us, animals often have a hard time deciding who they want to visit! Your pet will never feel alone; they’ll enjoy companionship, playtime, and care woven naturally into our daily routine.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a lot of flexibility in my day, which allows me to provide assistance whenever it’s needed — whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or sticking to a special routine. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze in; it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. Living in the country gives us plenty of space to explore and adventure, which dogs love. We’re experienced with all types of dogs — from those who thrive off‑leash to those who need special care and instructions — and we make sure each pet feels safe, happy, and cared for

Information Heather G. would like to know about your pet

Every pet is unique, and I want to make sure I meet their individual needs. If your pet has any specific requirements — whether it’s medications, training routines, dietary preferences, or extra care for seniors — please let me know. I’m happy to follow instructions closely so your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved.

A typical day

A typical day starts with morning check‑ins and walks to get pets moving and happy. Since I work from home, I’m available throughout the day for playtime, potty breaks, or just keeping pets company. In this house there’s always someone around to give animals attention! In the afternoon, we enjoy time outside exploring the country property, whether that’s a safe off‑leash adventure or a structured walk for dogs who need more guidance. Evenings are for winding down with feeding, cuddles, and sticking to each pet’s routine. Whether your pet needs extra training, medication support, or just companionship, I make sure their day is full, safe, and loved.

Care Rooted in Experience and Love

Pet care experience

I spent summers on family ranches surrounded by animals of all kinds, so caring for pets comes naturally to me. I’ve handled everything from dogs and cats to larger animals, giving me confidence in any situation. I’m calm and laid‑back, but also firm when needed, and I thrive on routine. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or sticking to special schedules, I give 100% to make sure pets feel safe, loved, and happy. I’m experienced with training both young and older dogs, and I’m especially skilled at supporting geriatric pets — from administering medications to providing the extra help they need. My goal is always to make sure every animal feels cared for, comfortable, and loved.

Heather took good care of my young kitten during a midday drop-in. I appreciated her flexibility on schedule. Will be booking with her again!
