Safety, trust & environment

New clients: A meet-and-greet is required before any booking is confirmed. As a safety precaution, I typically bring a family member with me; they will remain in the car while I complete the initial visit. During the meet-and-greet, please walk me through your fur babies’ usual schedule and routines, and introduce me to the pets I will have the honor of caring for. Please remember and note I CANNOT confirm the booking on rover until after we meet For extremely anxious fur-children: If your furchild experiences extreme anxiety, additional appointments may be required before your scheduled time away. These visits are designed to help your dog feel safe, comfortable, and familiar with their care routine. This extra time allows us to reduce stress for your furchild while ensuring any potential concerns are addressed in advance. My priority is your pet’s well-being and your peace of mind while you are away. I have extensive experience caring for senior pets, as well as pets who are deaf or blind. I am also experienced in caring for cats. Your pets’ safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priority. I offer a variety of services, including dog walking and pet sitting. I am happy to accommodate your needs and tailor my care to what works best for you and your pet.

Information Heather M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if the pet have any special needs or behaviors I should know about ahead of time. Please be honest. I have no real breed preference. I love all animals and pets as long as they are friendly.

A typical day

I accommodate the unique needs of you and your pet. Your pet’s personality, as well as any physical or mental limitations, truly matter to me, and I adapt my care accordingly. Every pet is different, and I look forward to getting to know yours. Note: Rover does not allow me to fully specify my house-sitting options. I offer both overnight stays and evening visits with departures, depending on your needs. Please feel free to reach out with any questions, I'm happy to discuss options and am very accommodating.

I have been pet sitting for over 12 years, beginning in high school. I am highly experienced in caring for animals of all kinds, including different breeds, energy levels, and age groups. I truly enjoy working with pets at every stage of life. I have experience supporting pets with anxiety due to past experiences, as well as managing and calming high-energy pets.

I genuinely look forward to meeting and caring for new furry friends and would love to hear from you.

Heather was amazing while we were on vacation. She even got our timid shy guy out for pets and love. Heather went above and beyond. We had no worries about the care of our kitties during our vacation thanks to Heather's through updates and pictures. Will totally use Heather in the future.

Heather is great! She’s currently walking our dog during the day, and she’s really communicative about how Bonkers did. She’s kind, and she gets along great with our dog. Cannot recommend her enough!
