Let me hike with your dog!
Pet care experience
I love animals of all kind; I'm a zoology major and eventually would like to work with elephants in sanctuaries. In the mean time, I love hanging out with dogs! They’re so fun and such loving, pure creatures. I've had dogs my entire life up until the last couple of years and I miss being around them. I've worked in dog grooming businesses as well as dog sitting for family friends. I prefer to use positive reinforcement with dogs as opposed to disciplinary tactics, but I can use discipline when necessary; it depends on the dog. I have a very flexible schedule and and am able to walk dogs both on weekdays and weekends! Thanks for checking out my profile! Hope to hear from you soon!
Reviews
I hired Heather for several days. She came for two days then, when she didn't show up on the third, I texted her and found out she'd had an emergency and left the state. I asked if someone would cover for her or whether I was responsible for finding someone. She never responded. Luckily, I had only hired her while I was out of town to help my disabled husband. If we had both left town, we would have returned to sick or dead pets. Not cool.
Heather has watched my dog countless times over the years. Even after months of not seeing her, Boo, my white pit bull bulldog mix, won't leave her side or stop smiling and responds to commands. I would highly recommend Heather based on her awareness of general health and safety concerns, and her great attitude with animals.
My dog had a great time with Heather. She's a McNabb border collie so extremely high energy and isnt the easiest dog to have to watch. No complaints from either one of them! Would definitely have her take my girl our again.

Information Heather N. would like to know about your pet
No breed preferences, but I would like to know if the dog has a history of biting or aggression towards people or other animals so I can prepare for that.
A typical day
I will take your dog on hikes in the Portland and surrounding area, as well as adventures to the park and around town in general.
