Safety, trust & environment
I offer in home pet care and boarding. For those wanting to board, I provide a safe environment with lots of room. I have house with a large amount of land and safe places to walk and play. I have room and experience with safely isolating your pet if there are issues with aggression or if you aren't comfortable with your pet being around other pets. Potty breaks are provided every 3-4 hours for dogs and longer walks or play outdoors at least once a day weather permitting. I am well versed on pairing dogs for play based on temperament and other measures relating to age and physical traits. I have experience handling separation anxiety and other behavioral or complicated health issues, including those needing injections or oral medication.
Home
Information Heather M. would like to know about your pet
I need to know the house training status of a dog, if there are any issues with aggression or any special circumstances such as health problems. I can work with any of these issues, I just need to be aware of them ahead of time so I can make accommodations. Please make me aware if your dog is not spayed or neutered and the status of her cycle if she is female. For boarding, I also prefer that the dog be crate trained for safety purposes.
A typical day
Days usually begin with a potty break and play session for around an hour followed by breakfast. At least one midday potty break is provided A longer evening walk or outdoor play session is provided followed by dinner. Down time together is provided until one last quick potty break before bedtime.

Pet care experience
Hello! My name is Heather. I'm a 30 year old Boone local. I have 10 years of paid experience as a pet sitter. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, cats, birds, rabbits, hedgehogs, turtles, horses, cattle, chickens, and ducks through ownership over the years. I have professional experience working at a dog kennel for 7 years. I have worked with special needs animals including diabetic, handicapped and elderly as well as newborn animals. I have a home with 40 acres of creekside land so I can offer boarding services for all dog breeds and provide plenty of interesting hiking, swimming and playing if your pet stays with me.
Reviews
Heather was so sweet and loving to our little Molly! She helped Molly relax on her first time away from us. She’s great!
Heather M. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.
Heather was great! She was flexible with timing of drop off and pickup, which I really appreciated. She was super positive about my pups stay, which was great to hear at pick-up! Would definitely recommend her to anyone in the Boone area!!
Heather was an absolute delight! She told me everything she needed, and told me how she planned to take care of Sutton! I am a bit of an over thinker so that was so sweet to me. Sutton was happy the whole time! She was cared for like she was one of Heathers dogs! She followed Suttons schedule perfectly! I was able to relax and know that Sutton was in good hands while I was on my trip! I will definitely be booking with her again!
