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
Reviews
Heather was wonderful, taking in ace at short notice with me only having him from the dogs trust for just over a month, she instantly made me feel at ease leaving him in her care and adapted quickly to coping with a grown Rottweiler that thinks he is still a puppy, and sent me many photos and videos of his little holiday away from me, couldn’t recommend her enough to anyone and feel so grateful that I could enjoy my sisters wedding at short notice all thanks to Heather
I think Rocco has a new woman in his life. Heather was great and very helpful.
Heather looked after Mungo brilliantly. She was warm and welcoming and kept us updated throughout his stay
Heather is an absolutely fantastic person. She provided top quality care for my dog & puppy for 6 days whilst my wife and I went on holiday. I recommend her to everyone and will definitely bring our babies here every time we go on holiday (providing there’s availability) thank you!

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
