Pet care experience

‪Hi, my name is Heather! I have had exposure to dogs my entire life - and I wouldn’t have it any other way! I’m familiar and comfortable with dogs of all sizes. Although I wish to one day have a pet of my own, Rover has given me an incredible opportunity of establishing a relationship with so many pets. The animals I watch have given an incredible amount of support and even with the first stay I consider them as part of my own. 💗 I am doing this full time, and am home majority of the time due to some health limitations, so we may be a great fit if you work from home, are retired, or your pet has separation anxiety because they are used to being around people. I can still provide up to 2-3 miles of daily exercise, and of course play lots of fetch! If you and your pup are comfortable with car rides or dog parks, we can do that as well! Additionally, I have a pretty flexible schedule. Look forward to meeting you and your furry family!

We can’t say slough great things about Heather! She was amazing. We received constant updates about our pups. She treated them like her own. I think they were more sad to see her leave than they were happy to see us when we got home. If you need a pet sitter, she’s your girl!

She was truly amazing and went above and beyond when my golden retriever unexpectedly got sick during the stay. She handled a tough situation with so much care, patience, and kindness, and I’m incredibly grateful for how well she took care of him.

Heather was wonderful and caring with our two dogs, who are as different as day and night. Both are rescues. She understood the needs of each dog, and made sure we were updated frequently when we were away. She seems to be a very gentle and kind person, and we really appreciated her wonderful care.

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.
