Providing pet care is my full-time profession, so pets are the focus of my day. My schedule is structured around visits, walks, playtime, and enrichment, ensuring that every pet receives consistent attention, care, and companionship. I prioritize building strong routines, following each pet’s individual needs, and maintaining clear communication with their owners. Pet care is more than a job to me—it’s a daily commitment to keeping pets safe, happy, and thriving.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide care in the pet’s own home, following their established routine for feeding, potty breaks, play, walks, and rest to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I provide enrichment and attention tailored to each pet’s personality and energy level.

Information Heather R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to be informed of any health or behavioral considerations, including diet, phobias, leash pulling, or dog aggression. I have experience working with a variety of breeds and pets with behavioral challenges, and understanding your pet’s activity level and preferences helps me provide the safest, most enjoyable care possible.

A typical day

I tailor each visit to your pet’s personality and energy level. I’m happy to take dogs on walks or transport them to their favorite places to explore, or stick close to home if that’s preferred. I can be a cozy cuddle buddy for more relaxed pets or an energetic play and exercise partner for active dogs. I also offer support with basic training, working with pets of all ages—from playful puppies to seniors who need gentle guidance. Every visit is designed to keep your pet happy, engaged, and comfortable.

Pet care experience

With over 15 years of experience in veterinary medicine as a technician (not currently licensed), I bring both medical knowledge and genuine compassion to every pet I care for. I am comfortable administering a wide range of medications—including injectable, oral, and topical treatments—and have hands-on experience supporting pets with special medical or behavioral needs.

Heather was incredibly professional, kind, and patient with my dog CJ. He’s a large dog and can be cautious when meeting new people, and she did a great job reading his comfort level and building trust at his pace instead of forcing interaction. During our meet and greet, she was knowledgeable, realistic, and very aware of dog behavior, which immediately made me feel more comfortable. You can tell she genuinely cares about the animals she works with. Overall it was a lovely experience, and I would absolutely book with her again.

Heather took great care of our cat Chanel while we were away for a long weekend. Heather was prompt and through when she came to our first meet and greet. Chanel was happy and well cared for when we returned home. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip knowing Chanel was in good hands.
