Pet care experience

Lots of Love

I recently lost my 14 year old senior dog who had been blind for the last four years of his life. We managed walks with the use of bells on my laces. I was his seeing eye human! I have raised dogs from puppies. I have had dogs in all of the off-leash parks in Edmonton and surrounding areas. I am an incredibly active person who loves the outdoors and the river valley.

Heather is a wonderful, reliable, and genuinely caring pet caregiver. She absolutely loves dogs and treats every pet like her own. She is always responsible, dependable, and on time, which makes her so easy to trust. Any pet would be lucky to be in her care, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for loving and attentive support.

I’ve been friends with Heather for over 15 years, and I can say without hesitation that she would be an excellent dog walker. She has owned dogs for more than 20 years and truly understands their needs. Heather is mature, athletic, exceptionally diligent, and incredibly reliable — the kind of person who shows up on time, every time. Most importantly, she treats every dog as if it were her own, with genuine care, patience, and affection. I would trust her completely with my own dog, and anyone who chooses Heather can feel confident their dog is in safe, loving, and capable hands.

Schedule

I’m available for boarding on the weekends and live close to walking trails, the river valley and dog parks. I love to be outside and active but I also love to sew and quilt so my home is very peaceful.

Safety, trust & environment

I would take the dogs for regular long walks. I have a dog park across the street from me and I am within walking distance of the river valley and some of the ravines. I would take care of your pet as you ask. If you use a kennel, I would do the same. If you have rules for the pets I would respect and abide by them.

A typical day

I love to take dogs to nature. I don’t like the busy areas of dog parks. I like the winding paths through the trees and down by the river. I would never let a dog go off leash without permission and the trust of the owners. I am an expert when it comes to frisbees and anything retrievable. I would adjust my pace and length of walks to the dog’s ability.
