They call me Mad, Pet Mad...
Pet care experience
I've cared for pets since I was a tiny human. From my own collies through to friends, family and work colleagues. I've had all critters under the sun inc cats, rats, guinea pigs, dogs, lizards, geckos etc At work and with friends I'm always labled as the one who is animal crazy, I always volunteer to sit their pets while they go on holiday and they are more than happy for me to do so, as they know I'm a great choice I've trained dogs and rats since being small and genuinely care for them with all of my being. I love being around animals, sometimes more than humans. I understand their needs and feel like I bond with them quickly. I'm happy to play, pet, feed and bathe them when required

Simba has really enjoyed his day with Heather and Ruby. Thank you for looking after him so well and look forward to the next time.
What a perfect person for our dogs , would use Heather again over and over , such a lovely and caring person can't Thank her enough
Another fabulous stay with Heather. Mungo is super well looked after and Heather keeps us updated with pics and news. Thanks again
Amazing from start to finish. We had been looking around for a while at a dog sitter for Henry whilst we went on holiday and then we found Heather and Ruby! It’s the first time we have left Henry and it seems like he has had the time of his life. We got daily updates including pictures of all the adventures he has been on, which was amazing! It really made us feel at ease being away knowing he was having just as good of a time as we were, if not better! I was worried he wouldn’t want to come home for a second 😂 Heather has really helped Henry with his social skills both with people and other animals, as she has other dogs in for day care/walks, Henry has gotten to meet them all and make some friends along the way! It was great to get updates of him interacting with other dogs, living his best life! We’re so happy we found Heather and Ruby! We will Definitly be using her in future, should we go away again! Thank you so much for treating Henry as though he is your own! It means the world!

I have a high walled garden, a massive field and woodland area close by and a crate if needed for crate trained dogs. Plenty of spare rooms if space is needed and a large dining/ living room area to roam. My house is pet friendly in all rooms so they can make themself at home wherever they feel confident

Information Heather S. would like to know about your pet
Just let me know of any behavioural issues I'd need to work with and I'd be happy to help. I'm open to any issue but I prefer pets that would be trained and non aggressive with other animals
A typical day
I love being able to physically and mentally work with your dogs, there's a lovely park near my house to walk them with so many different smells and terrain to work with. I don't mind letting them get wet and mucky as I'm happy to give them a good scrub afterwards as long as they are having fun I certainly am. The beach is a nice walk away or a short drive and there is a pet friendly side to it! Mentally I like to teach them new tricks and play new games to keep their wee brain active!

Availability
I work part time from home, so have an abundance of time to play and hang out with them! There's a huge field and woodland walk next to me to take them out and I'm more than happy to take them for longer walks and walks that may require a drive to get to, I've a van and plenty of animal seat belts in for safety
