Nurturing dog/cat mom

Pet care experience

Hello! I am a fur-mom of 3 rescues. Also a full time grad student at OSU so I have gaps during the day which I love to fill taking dogs for walks (so they can sniff all the smells). As a dog sitter/walker my priorities are your pets' safety, comfort and enjoyment. We rescued our cat, Murphy and dogs, Conway and Finnegan and they have changed my life. I greatly value those who have cared for my dear pups and cat when I have been out of town. That is what inspired me to join Rover. I want to provide you with the peace of mind while away from home, knowing your pets are in good hands. I look forward to caring for your pets and prioritizing their happiness!

Heather did great caring for our 2 dogs and 2 cats while we were away. She sent updates and photos to us as well and we really appreciated hearing how they were doing. We were grateful to know our fur babies were in good hands and being cared for. Thanks, Heather!

Allergies, known triggers, fears, whether they're comfortable with other dogs sniffing/saying hello during walks is all really helpful. Also their routines (food, walks, where they sleep, etc.)
