Availability
I am currently an Emergency veterinary technician “on call”. I work PRN which is as needed. I was working full time in general practice and moved to the ER for more flexibility with my kids and life’s schedule.

Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Heather! As a current emergency veterinary technician with over 10 years of experience in the veterinary field, I bring a deep understanding of animal health, behavior, and care to every pet I meet. I share my home with quite the crew—5 dogs, 3 cats, a bearded dragon, and a guinea pig—all of whom are fully vaccinated and kept up to date on their preventatives. Caring for animals isn’t just my career—it’s my passion and a huge part of my daily life. Whether your pet needs basic care, medication administration, or just someone patient and knowledgeable to love them while you’re away, you can trust they’ll be in safe, experienced hands with me. Outside of work, I’m a mom to two biological sons and two step-sons. Our family enjoys camping, boating, and spending time outdoors together (often with our pets in tow!). I understand how important peace of mind is when leaving your pets, so please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or special instructions. I’m happy to accommodate individual needs and look forward to meeting your furry (or scaly!) family members!

Reviews
I personally have worked side by side with Heather. She's an all around outgoing, trustworthy person. She has a passion for the care of animals whether it be through Healthcare or persisting etc. She's even taken on clients pets personally for long lengths of time to make the recovery process easier on the family.

Heather is currently caring for my puppy, Golem. Soon after adopting him, we learned he had a heart defect that affected his ability to keep food down. Due to some special circumstances, I needed help not just feeding him, but learning about his condition and a sitter before and after his upcoming surgery. Heather not only has the skill set, but the talent and a caring heart. She also pet sits for my other dog, Wolfie. I trust her implicitly w my pets, and in my home! You won’t be disappointed!!
