Safety, trust & environment

I get it, trusting your fur babies with someone new is a scary thing but my goal is to make it less scary for you. When doing drop-in visits, whether your dog is an escape artist or not I am always careful when opening the doors. In addition I will supply constant supervision during my time with your fur baby to ensure that they stay safe! If I am providing your dog with a walk, I will make sure that they stay on lead and if I feel that walking them will put them in harms way I will communicate that with you!

Information Heather M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has food sensitivity, needs medications at certain time, any allergies and even how they tend to behave with new people and in new situations. This lets me plan accordingly how I can best take care of your fur baby

A typical day

I love to do what is going to be the most stimulating for your dog! Whether its playing with toys in the backyard or going on a walk to a new part of the neighborhood. I am down for either!

Pet care experience

I am a devoted animal lover who has grown up taking care of dogs. I have taken care of all kinds,sizes and ages of dogs. No dog intimidates me! I am excited to offer a fun, safe and loving experience for your fur babies. I have experience in training puppies and adult dogs as well. In my eyes you CAN teach an old dog new tricks! I worked as an intern training dolphins and sea lions obviously those are way different animals but the concepts of training can be applied to dogs as well. I also have experience in administering medication to dogs such as pills, liquids or topical creams. I know how important it that your beloved animal is treated with special care and I aim to meet that goals because they are a part of your family! When it comes to walking to dogs I also have experience in multiple tools for walking dogs

Heather is a fantastic pet sitter and pet parent! We went to university together and she would watch my dog for me when I had to work late or for long study sessions. She is one of the most caring and responsible women I know. If I need to leave my dog with someone, there's no one I would trust more than Heather. She treats my dog like her own and I know she would do whatever was necessary to care for her as well as spoiling her extra! Can't recommend her enough!
