Safety, trust & environment

I will try to mimic any routine you typically have with your dog as far as feeding, play, and where you typically take walks to make your fur-baby as comfortable as possible.

Information Heather K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there any an allergies or triggers (doesn't like dogs, afraid of certain sounds, etc) I should look out for when taking care of you fur-baby. I don't have any breed preferences, I love all dogs.

A typical day

It's important to me to give your dog as much love and attention as I can during your time away. I can feed, walk, and/or play with your fur-baby in your absence! Extra house-sitting services I am more than willing to do simply additional tasks at your home while you are away, just ask!

Pet care experience

My name is Heather and I personally have two Shih-tzu's right now. I have 2 years experience working at a pet resort caring for many different breeds or dogs, cats, and exotic animals. I also spent over a year working full-time at Southeastern Guide Dogs and spent another 2 years filling in when needed with them. I am canine CPR certified. I also worked 7 years for an online pet supply store specializing in USA brand products. I have a certification in dog training and have working professionallytraining dogs for over 3 years. While your "fur"-babies are in my care they will be kept as close to your schedule as possible. I do my best to rearrange my schedule as needed, and friendly dogs are able to come to work with me during the day if you allow it. Why I love dog sitting I've had dogs ever since I was born, I couldn't imagine life without them. I've had experience with quite a few breeds growing up and many more since working at a pet resort. I'm comfortable handling dogs as small as teacup yorkies all the way up to mastiffs. My experience administering medication I am comfortable administering oral medication with or without needing to hide the pill in something, and I am familiar with giving insulin injections as well.

Heather is very knowledgeable, experienced and enthusiastic about what she does and I’m so happy that that she’s able to watch my high energy, stubborn, boxer puppy as he is definitely a lot of work.
