Home-away-from-home for your dog!

Pet care experience

Married dog lovers living in a house at Islington and the Westway who can’t wait to hang out with your furbaby :)! While we don’t have a pup of our own, we have lots of experience dog sitting for family and friends (6 Years +) and love dogs of all breeds. Although we work the typical 9-5 work weeks, I (Heather) have lots of flexibility to work from home depending on your dog’s needs. My husband (Matthew) is also home by early afternoon on most days so we tag team to ensure that the dog gets out as much as possible. On the weekends we both have lots of availability and usually take the dog on long walks and to the local dog park (pending their comfort level with other dogs). We also have a backyard that the dog can run in (with supervision). Looking forward to hearing from you!

Let mw start off by saying that i have a very hard time ever leaving my two babies with anyone including family. When it comes to Heather and Matthew they just make me feel so calm and at ease being away from them. I am truly greatful and blessed for meeting them. Thankyou again guys you are the best!

Heather and Matt were amazing, kind and patient caregivers for our 15 year old Shih Tzu Sammy.

Words cannot express how blessed i was to come across Heather on Rover. Heather and hubby has made my experience with leaving my two dogs with a babysitter for the first time while traveling so anxiety free. Her constant connection and photos taken of them for us made us feel that our babies were in good hands. I cant thank you enough Heather!
