Pet care experience
I have two dogs of my own that I take care of and I have helped walked dogs from local shelters. I have also helped pet sit for my neighbors and friends. I have taken care of fish, dogs, cats and guinea pigs. Currently I am in grad school with a very flexible schedule. I also know how to groom dogs, I bathe my dogs. I love taking dogs on hikes as well as playing with them. All my life I have grown up with dogs of all sizes but mostly large dogs. I also know how to take care of defensive and anxious dogs because I have a dog who is very sensitive and anxious, she is a rescue. I do well with the varying energy levels the dog may have.
Reviews
Heather was flexible and dependable. Thanks!
Heather was great. Kopi was happy and she sent us some pictures which we always love while we’re away. Will definitely use her again!
Heather did such a nice job house and pet sitting. Very prompt and responsible. Will definitely use her again.
Heather was wonderful with our pets and a thoughtful houseguest. Our pets can be a bit shy so Heather's calm demeanor was a great fit. She was so patient with our dog. She was responsive to any communications and kept us updated as to how the pets were doing in our absence. We would not think twice about booking Heather to watch our pets and home in the future. We enjoyed our getaway so much more knowing all were in good hands. Thank you!!

I always read the entire pet profile to get the basics needed so I have a full picture of the pet. I make sure when it’s hot I ensure the pet doesn’t walk on hot concrete and I check for snakes or hazards before letting them go out to go potty
Information Heather P. would like to know about your pet
I have lots of history with puppies, seniors, dogs that required medications and tripod dogs as well. I always consider the type of dog before we walk or play to make sure the dog has the right stimulation
A typical day
Depending on the dog and their energy levels I like to take lots of short walks or if that’s not a possibility I play with them as much as possible.
