Pet care experience
I'm very passionate about working with all size, shape, and species of animals. I am a former Veterinary Technician looking to take my passion for animal care and channel it in to helping people in my community provide the best care available for their furry family members when their lives get busy. As someone who has worked a full time, chaotic schedule in vet medicine I know how hard it can be to dedicate time to care for pets once the work day is over. I want to help you worry a little bit less about walks and play time for your fur child and provide you with peace of mind. I have experience with all sizes, ages and temperments as well as administering medications on a strict schedule and taking extra care of special needs pets. I also have experience with dog grooming and have my own grooming equipment to provide as an add on service on a limited basis. I'm very flexible and willing to work with you based on your needs and the needs of your pet just let me know how I can help and I'll do my best to be of service! My experiance is not limited to the canine variety, I have extensive experience with cats and exotics as well! With a background in caring for exotic animals and fish at PetSmart for over 6 years I am very confident in my ability to care for your exotic pets needs while you're away, either in your home or mine just send me a message and we can discuss your pets special needs and I can give you a quote!
Reviews
We are a repeat customer….Heather is AWESOME!!!!
We were looking for an additional sitter for our basset hound. He is a handful with separation anxiety and rear paralysis from IVDD. We were lucky enough to find Heather and her husband who were not out off by Boomer’s quirks. He quickly became comfortable with her and we were assured he would be in good hands.
I was very happy with Heather’s Doggy Daycare. She is a warm, caring individual and my dog Maya felt instantly comfortable with her! Maya came home very happy and relaxed.
Heather was very flexible, provided a great environment for our dogs, kept us updated everyday and was in every way exceptional. Would definitely recommend to anyone needing doggy care.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Safety is my number one priority when caring for your pet weather in my home or yours. I take extra precautions to ensure a safe environment both in my home and in yours. We have a fenced in yard with a locked gate, dog gates set up inside of our home to keep pets in and out of designated areas, we feed guests separately from our own dogs to discourage territoral behavior and always discuss any boundaries or precautions that should be taken while taking care of your pet based in their individual needs.
Home
Information Heather L. would like to know about your pet
Does your dog enjoy being around other dogs? As a dog owner myself this is crucial to know so I can maintain a safe environment for my own pets and the pets of my current clients that trust me with their beloved family members. If this is a concern I can offer pet sitting in your home through multiple services to fit your needs. I will also need to know and be prepared if your dog is not spayed or neutered, they will need to be separated from other intact pets and this may effect scheduling for certain services.
A typical day
If you choose to have your pet stay over night or during the day with us there is a very quiet dog park in my neighborhood a short walk from my home that we will visit daily where they can play and burn some energy. There will be lots of cuddling and if your dog enjoys the company of other dogs my husky and her mixed breed brother are great companions.
