I love animals of all kinds.

Pet care experience

UPDATE: At this time I am not taking new clients, though I am recommending JEFF, he is also from Brockton, has his own dog walking business and now is utilizing Rover too. His profile picture is of him and his German Shepard. Jeff is also one of my clients as I take care of his dog, Jake, when he is away. Call Jeff, you won't be disappointed. I understand how hard it is to let someone else take care of your precious pet, it's unnerving. Trust me I know. I am very nice, compassionate, understanding, and caring. I will take very good care of your pet. I currently have 2 dogs, Seven, is a SID (Siberian Indian Dog) weighing in at a whopping 135 pounds and Sandy a Terrier mix adopted from Shultz's Guest House in Dedham. My husband and boys love all animals too. We are a fun,loving family . I will take good care of your dog and treat them the way you would. Your dog will get lots of attention, hugs, kisses, belly rubs, scratches behind the ears, and exercise! I will also care for your other pets in your home! I can care for your cats, fish, birds, snakes, lizards, whatever you have I can take care of them, so spread the word to your friends too! Like I said, I love all animals!!

Heather has watched our two dogs (and two bunnies) a few times now and always takes great care of them! it’s such a comforting feeling to know you can relax on vacation and know they are in great hands!

Safety, trust & environment

For house sittings I usually arrive around 5 p.m., depending on circumstances no later than 7p.m. I stay overnight and leave around 8 a.m. also depending on circumstances. For instance if I have to bring my kids to school I will leave around 630 a.m. depending on where you live. If I have nothing scheduled I could stay until 10 a.m. If this is too long to be away for an owners liking you can schedule a dog walk during the day at the current rate. So to reiterate, House Sittings are from 5 p.m. to 8 a.m. approximately. During the house sitting I am able to take in your mail, leave out the weekly trash collection, bring in deliveries, etc. Just communicate your wishes and we can work together.

Information Heather T. would like to know about your pet

. If you need me for a daycare/kennel drop off/pick up, vet drop off/pick up, if your walker cancelled last minute or its an emergency please contact me and I will help if I can.

A typical day

I walk dogs during the day and let them sniff everything and take their time, after all it is their 30 minutes so we can do whatever they want. If I find a dog likes to play and they have a fenced in yard I may split walk time and include play time. I play with them by throwing whatever toys they have (ball, frisbee, etc), or a stick if they want or we can play chase.

Availability

I do dog walks during the day and customize my schedule to the owner/dogs needs. I don't believe a dog should go without a pee break for a long period of time especially if they are confined to a crate. Dependent on the owners schedule I can most times accommodate. For example if the owner works odd hours, flight leaves at an odd hour or an owner has to work a double shift I can walk a dog at 6 a.m. or as late as 11 p.m. I am no longer doing pet care on a regular basis meaning every day or every week. I can do one day here and there, weekends, vacations, house sittings etc just NOT ON A REGULAR BASIS/SCHEDULE. Thank you for understanding. I will update if there is a change. (as of 11/21/21)
