Pet care experience

Many FurKids thru years=EXPERIENCE

I live in Scottdale but I’m very familiar with ALL surrounding areas. I’m a homemaker, so I’m available practically any time to come offer care to your furry (or not so furry!) loved ones! Currently we have 2 dogs, a purebred 32lb female Siberian Husky & a Designer Breed 15lb female Pomsky. They are both crate trained & house trained. Both are fully registered ESA (Emotional Support Animals) & I take that very seriously as to their training & how exactly I want them to behave. I recently lost my female German Shepherd; & a year prior my male Siberian Husky. My male Siberian was epileptic so I’m experienced in offering meds and know that having them on hand & on time IS A MUST for things of this nature! My shepherd was very elderly (about 14) & required a lot of extra love, care & attention also. So I am also compassionate about animals that need some extra loving. *I offer very basic kitty care. I cannot host cats in my home due to the prey drive of my husky, sometimes she’s ok with them, other times not. *I’ll do feedings for lizards as I have had a few bearded dragons myself as well so I’m knowledgeable here also. (But under no circumstances ask me to care for your snake, or your spider!) ***I offer potty breaks, walks, playtime, feed & water breaks, treat time, medication administration ALL in my standard fee. Anything else, just ask! I’m very flexible & willing to work out most things if we can come to an agreement suitable for both sides. Can’t wait to meet the furry parts of your family.🐾

Heather was very responsive and professional. She kept me informed and shared pictures throughout her visits. I’ll definitely reach out again!

Heather boards my 2 dogs regularly. She keeps them overnight while I deal with a newborn, adjusting here. She’s helped with potty training, crate training, and basic commands with my puppy. The other one isn’t in best health and she’s great with on time meds also. I trust her with them and my kids.

One of my best friends that I hired to watch my pets while I worked. She was a neighbor at the time and then we became friends due to the animals. She had her sick husky at the time and we traded favors caring for the doggos! She’s so sweet with them! A true pet MOM. She treats pets as you’d want someone to treat your child. They are her babies. No better person I’d EVER leave mine with!

This is my mom and she watches my cat and my lizard for me when my girlfriend and I go out of town. Sometimes we have to travel for a week at a time and she either takes the cat to her house but comes to stay at my house but she’s amazing with her. She also helps with my neighbors cat because the woman is elderly. My moms always had pets, we had them growing up and it was the best experience ever. Our pets were not pets, they were family and still are.

Safety, trust & environment

No fence but my yard is safe, multiple leashes, 2 porches, in a friendly community for walks. Small home but very lovable and friendly and cozy. My dogs are crate trained but good with other dogs, socialized, UTD on shots, but my girls are not spayed so if you have a male I allow ONLY altered ones at this time.

Pets

A typical day

Walks, treat time, play time, dog parks if allowed, cuddle time. I’m big on loving them as much as they need or want to be loved! I work with my girls to learn new things all the time so I’d incorporate your pets as well if you wanted or didn’t mind!

16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Unspayed females accepted, neutered males only

Heather can host up to 2 pets per night
If your dog is elderly or has any special needs, please let me know what is expected ahead of time. My shepherd was elderly & needed a lot of extra care & one of my Siberians had an epileptic brain tumor; so I understand this well! & the biggest thing is - I want your pet(s) to be comfortable!
