I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I would love to have a friend to take walks with during the day and snuggle with at night.

I own a house with 2 fenced in yards, so your dog will be very safe and loved. I am missing my furry family members, but not ready to add more to our household permanently - so feel this is the best of both worlds.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a caring and reliable dog sitter who treats every pet like family. I had two dogs for 20 years—they were my whole world—and one was diabetic, so I’m experienced with medications and attentive care. I work from home, so your dog will get lots of attention, and I’m looking for a great walking buddy! I also have a 2-year-old, so dogs must be comfortable with kids. We’re still grieving the loss of our very beloved pups a few months ago, and I’d love to share that same love and care with your dog. 🐾

Heather took great care of my goldendoodle (Riva) for a weekend. Heather was very communicative and shared pictures and updates throughout the stay, and it was comforting to see Riva looking so relaxed and at home. She seemed to fit right into Heather's family! I would definitely recommend Heather to others.

Heather is a very responsible and caring dog sitter. She has watched many dogs as long as I’ve known her and I’ve trusted her with my own pets on many occasions and wouldn’t hesitate to do so again.
