Heather is great. She has stayed with our dog a few times. She is reliable, and left the house perfectly neat. She keeps our pup busy with walks and playing. We will definitely use Heather again.

Heather did a great job taking care of my new rescue dog with separation anxiety. Heather walked Nina at local parks and took lots of pictures, and I could tell that Nina had a wonderful time being spoiled by Heather while I was gone.

Heather is amazing when it comes to animals. She truly cares and puts them first. She helped me when my cat was diagnosed with cancer and would give him medicine and hang out with him when I was out of town. I've never met someone so kind, compassionate, and loving towards animals. She will definitely be your pets biggest supporter!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
