Loving Pet Care Like They’re My Own

Hi there! I’m Heather, and caring for animals isn’t just something I do; it’s who I am. I’ve had the joy of volunteering at two different humane societies, where I worked hands-on with dogs and cats of all temperaments, ages, and needs. Through those experiences, I learned how to provide not just basic care, but real comfort and connection for animals in all situations. To deepen my understanding and provide even better care, I’ve also completed the Fear Free Shelter program for both cats and dogs. This training helps me reduce stress and anxiety in pets, making their time away from you feel safe, calm, and positive. Whether it's a walk around the block, a weekend stay, or simply keeping your pet company while you're away, I always treat them like family. I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes, and I pay close attention to individual routines and personalities.

Second time staying at Heather’s. It’s like Truffle’s second family. Truffle loves Heather and her cat Willow. She got to meet Heather’s daughter and I saw photos of Truffle with Heather’s daughter. Truffle was giving her kisses. Heather is very communicative. Sent lots of photos. Most importantly Truffle feels love and at home there. Heather will be Truffle’s forever sitter… the one sad thing is - it can be hard to book Heather. What to do? She’s the best sitter. Fingers crossed - hopefully next time Truffle needs Heather, she will be available!

We love Heather so much! She watched our two dogs and cat for 5 nights, and took such good care of all of them. She has great communication, attention to detail, sends updates and photos, and most of all is sweet and kind with our animals. Our reactive dog loves her calm demeanor. Thanks, Heather!

Heather was wonderful, she took excellent care of my two elderly cats and was easy to work with and a great communicator. She followed the care instructions to a tee and kept me updated on her visits each day, sending photos. She even cleaned up their spaces, which she definitely did not need too! I highly recommend and would love to work with her again sometime. Thank you, Heather!

Heather is very communicative, attentive and even sends photos! This is our first time using Rover so we were a bit nervous. We are happy to have chosen Heather to feed and check in on our puppy!

One of the biggest benefits I offer is my extremely flexible schedule. I work from home full-time, which means I’m around throughout the day to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. My open availability also makes it easy to accommodate last-minute bookings, special requests, and unique schedules.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I create a calm, low-stress environment with plenty of affection, playtime, and personalized attention. I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions closely, and I’m happy to send photo updates so you can feel connected while you're away.

It’s important for me to know your pet’s daily routine, personality, and any special needs they may have, like medications, allergies, or triggers. I also like to know how they are around other animals, new people, and during walks. The more details you can share, the better I can tailor their care and keep them happy and comfortable while you're away!
