Pet care experience

Experienced and patient dog lover

Hi! I’m currently consulting and love helping people take care of their dogs to add some extra fun in our lives. We have a 14 yr old small dog that gets along with other dogs. I can board your dog with us or can stay at your house for small periods. I’m very active and love taking dogs on walks (if they feel up for it). My 16 year old dog passed away in February and no one understands that pain unless your dogs are part of your family. Thank you for trusting me with your pup. I promise to take care of her/him as well as you do. Here is a bit more about me. - I have an 11 yr old son that might walk or care for your dog with me so your dog should be child friendly - I used to work in a doggie boutique/daycare 15 yrs ago and loved it! I like and feel comfortable with all kinds of dogs - I can care for your dog at your place for a night but would babysit your dog at my place if longer. - I can transport your dog in my car to my place or fun adventures

Drop-In Visits • Aug 08, 2019

Heather was absolutely amazing during both of the drop in visits. Her attention to all details made me so comfortable her being there for my pup, and was able to rebook her! Took our pup on an extended walk was above and beyond and makes me so happy she’s a Rover walker! Thank you so much.

Safety, trust & environment

I’m overly cautious when it comes to walking and caring for dogs. Even if you have a fenced in yard, I’ll go outside with your dog to make sure that deer or other animals aren’t nearby. In our home, dogs are part of our lives and we care for them with lots of cuddles, loves and walks.

Pets

A typical day

I find many dogs are nervous when their family goes out of town. I talk to dogs and let them know that I’m only taking care of them for a short time and their parents are coming home soon. I find a gentle voice and lots of love helps a lot. More playful dogs like longer walks to downtown or will play fetch.

I will accept jobs that are close to our house in San Carlos. I find that it takes too much time to walk a dog that’s even 15 min away but I can do boarding for that. For pups not in San Carlos, I require a two hour visit. I’d be happy to bathe your dog or take your dog on a hike to fill the extra time.
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.
