Dogs are my favorite people
Pet care experience
I have been actively caring for my family's dogs and others' animals for over 10 years now, as either familial responsibility or acting as a hired employee to watch over the dogs in the absence of owners. I have experience in many areas of dog care (feeding, exercise, bathing, etc.) and experience caring for extended periods of time (such as continuous visits throughout the day/week for over a week, and having dogs stay with me in my home and interacting with other dogs). Coming from a dog-family, I have a soft spot for dogs and will care for them with the highest regard!
Reviews
Heather is a very responsible young lady who loves animals! She has taken care of our two Golden Retrievers many times and we can go away without a worry, knowing that they will be in excellent hands! We come home to find two very happy and content dogs because she takes the time to play with them, exercise them and show them so much love. I would recommend her to anyone!
Heather has taken care of Bailey multiple times over the past couple years. She treats our dog like a princess and always followed all of our instructions. I have never thought twice about asking Heather to take care of our dog!
About Heather M.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have no dogs at home, but live with my partner who also loves dogs. We are comfortable with having your dogs hang out in the rooms with us or to crate at night/as you prefer.
Information Heather M. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any conditions so I can ensure they receive the proper treatment. Also let me know if you want to crate your dog for an overnight stay and whether your dog uses a leash/harness/etc.
A typical day
I love to get your dogs lots of exercise. I live right on the Bluemont Junction trail, so have easy access to long walks near a few parks. I also love to play with the dogs and give them lots of love. I have experience caring for older dogs too, so can meet their level of physical ability.
