Pet sitting fits perfectly into my daily life right now, as I have a very open and flexible schedule. This allows me to give each pet the time, attention, and care they deserve—whether it’s sticking to a feeding routine, going for walks, or simply being there to offer companionship. I’m not rushing between commitments, so I can be fully present with your pet and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

I understand how important it is to feel confident and secure when someone is caring for your pet and coming into your home. I take that trust seriously and always aim to be respectful, reliable, and detail-oriented. I follow instructions carefully, keep your home clean and tidy, and always prioritize your pet’s safety and well-being. Whether it’s locking doors, being mindful of household routines, or simply communicating regularly, I strive to create a peaceful and trustworthy environment for both you and your pet.

Information Heather G. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know your pet’s daily routine, any medical needs or medications, their likes and dislikes, and how they typically interact with people and other animals. Knowing their quirks, fears, or triggers helps me give them the best possible care and keep them happy and comfortable.

A typical day

I love spending time with pets! For dogs, I enjoy going on walks, playing fetch, and giving them lots of attention and belly rubs. For cats, I offer plenty of playtime with toys, cozy cuddle sessions, and a calm, loving environment. I always tailor activities to each pet’s personality and energy level!

Pet care experience

What sets me apart is over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m especially comfortable with senior pets and understand the extra patience and care they sometimes need. While I’m not a professional trainer, I’ve raised and cared for well-trained dogs in the past and am confident in maintaining routines and reinforcing positive behavior. As a responsible, dependable person, you can trust me to provide loving, attentive care for your fur babies.

Heather took wonderful care of our cat, Tucker, and I would highly recommend her! She was communicative, friendly, and clearly loves every animal like they were her own. She sent the cutest pictures and spent lots of time with him while we were gone on a long trip.
