Pet care experience

Dog lover for life!

I would love to watch your pet while you away. I strive to provide a home/family environment where your pet feels comfortable. I only keep 1-2 dogs (2 if they are from the same family) at a time so you don’t have to worry about multiple dogs interacting and they will get plenty of attention! I have been around dogs my whole life and worked as a dog daycare manager for a time.

We had a wonderful experience with Heather and her family. I’m pretty sure our lab Maggie would have rather stayed with them and their golden Avery than come back home. Haha. She was easy to communicate with, sent us pictures and updates, even let us come and get Maggie and take her to the beach. Maggie took to her family immediately. We will definitely use her again if traveling to St Augustine.

Heather will be our go-to cat sitter from here on out. Right after moving to St. Augustine, we had a pre planned wedding in Europe for 2 weeks. Heather did everything we asked and so much more, even watering our plants and adding to the fish tank reservoir, which was beyond appreciated—our home has a lot of life in it! She sent photos of both of our babies each visit, gave a good summary of how they’re doing and how the visit went, and even swept up for us. Thank you, thank you, thank you. On the last day, one of our babies locked herself in the restroom, and as soon as I saw it on camera, I texted Heather and she was at the house within 15 minutes. Look no further—Heather is the best!!

Absolutely amazing caretaker! Highly recommend. We still have visits left with Heather, but I didn’t want to lose the opportunity to leave a 5-Star Review! Thank you, Heather!

Mocha enjoyed his stay with Heather and her family. She was very accommodating and sent us daily pictures. I could tell in the pictures that he was happy. We will definitely use her again.

Coach had a great time with Heather and her family. She was very communicative and sent me home with one tired dog! We would definitely leave Coach in Heather’s care again.
