Pet Care Extraordinaire

Pet care experience

I have been caring for pets for about ten years. Growing up, I had a dog named Atticus Finch, a rooster named Uncle Ben, and a guinea pig named Peanut Butter and Jelly. So not only am I wonderful with animals I know the heavy responsibility that comes with taking care of their emotional, physical, and social needs as a pet owner and also as a professional dog walker. I will not only ensure that their basic needs will be met. I will also be in constant communication with you through text and email reassuring you that your beloved pet is in the absolute best hands. I will keep you updated on how our walks were and send you plenty of pictures of their cute FLUFFY faces.

Heather is the best sitter and walker for Wally! He can be very nervous and she handles his behaviors extremely well. Heather takes great care in all facets of Wally’s wellbeing, ensuring he is always comfortable and gets plenty of exercise. Heather is the best!!

Information Heather R. would like to know about your pet

Before booking any new clients I insist on having a meet and greet first. So I'm able to discern for myself the type of temperament my potential paw client has and from there. I would ask if they have any food or skin allergies. I would also inquire about their families history and their triggers. I would then leave space for my client to disclose whatever she or he was comfortable with regarding their dogs care.

A typical day

In my care your pet will not only be stimulated mentally but physically as well. I take all of the dogs in my care for extensive walks. I also have plenty of toys for them to play with.
