Pet care experience

Fur babies welcome!

I have been a house and pet sitter since High School while working at a vet’s office and all throughout college and many years after. I love a good pet therapy session to keep stress levels down for me and the animal. I have two cats of my own and know how important it is for them to get interacted with throughout the day when we aren’t around, as well as when we have our own overnight commitments to attend. I would be honored to get to spend a little time with your fur baby when needed! I am a fun loving, easy going, and pet (and treat) giving cat mom who loves both cats and dogs! I can’t wait to meet all the incredibly adorable animals possible through this opportunity. I am quite the stimulating pet parent! My cats even knows some commands and tricks. We love some treat giving, toy searching, and you playing in my house!

Heather was fantastic! She watched our 2 dogs (at our house) for our overseas vacation. Her communication was spot on and our dogs absolutely loved her. She was considerate and our home was immaculate. We will absolutely use her again.

Heather was great. Finnegan and Lloyd were well cared for. She gave daily updates and reached out when she had questions. We were very happy with the experience. Heather left the house very clean too.

Heather was an amazing Petsitter and I would book her again in a heartbeat! She was extremely communicative and reassuring, and I can tell my pets had a great time with her! We were in a little bit of a pickle as my cat had surgery a week before we were leaving on a trip, and she handled all his medications and other post-surgical requirements with ease. She also left our place very clean.

Schedule

I work for Rover fulltime, so I am always here. I have enough space, and gates to keep 3-5 dogs at a time, if the family is comfortable with other friendly dogs being in the same house with them. I walk all separately unless they are from the same family or the dogs are really good friends. We take about 5-6 walks a day around the neighborhood ranging between 20-30 minutes depending on the weather of the season, and even have a deck with a piece of “grass” where older pets can use the restroom easily or if it is raining, for a quick potty break.

Pets

A typical day

I am a huge fan of both high and low energy dogs. I can keep up with play time or nap all day. Sometimes I can accomplish both in one day! I adore my neighborhood. It has the best gardens to stop at, and the dogs have a great time sniffing about too! A win win!

I prefer mostly to know their typical walking habits, any medications they may take, preferred sleeping arrangements, are they allowed on couches and beds, and most importantly, are they dog, cat, and kid/people friendly?
