Pet care experience

Cat Care Specialist | 20 Years 🐱

Cats are my specialty and the only animals I care for. With over 20 years of experience as a dedicated cat owner, I’ve cared for a wide range of personalities and needs. One of my four cats (two of whom have since passed) was temperamental and had kidney disease, giving me firsthand experience supporting senior cats and those with special medical needs. In addition to my personal experience, I’ve spent the past three years cat sitting for many wonderful kitties, providing attentive, reliable care tailored to each cat’s unique personality.

As always Heather was a joy to have watch our kitties. We are always sooo appreciative of her dedicated care and look forward to her thorough updates and pics every day while we’re out of town. It gives us such peace of mind to know she’s there. Thanks Heather!!!
