Full-time pet caregiver.
Pet care experience
Hello, I’m Heather! I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a child as I grew up with dogs, cats, and small rodents as pets. For the past 10 years I have worked professionally caring for other people’s pets either full time or part time. I am currently doing this full-time while I work on my masters degree. I have experience with cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, and small rodents. I have cared for senior cats and dogs and am capable of administering medications. I’m currently not boarding as I live in an apartment at the moment. I am available for walks, check-ins, and overnight stays.

Safety, trust & environment
I am not boarding at the moment as I live in an apartment. I am available for walks, check-ins, and overnight stays. I won’t accept clients that live over 10 minutes away.
Information Heather W. would like to know about your pet
I don’t discriminate breeds or sizes, however I won’t continue walking a dog that shows signs of aggression if it’s something that I can’t manage comfortably. Please be open and honest about your pets behavior. It’s important I know of any medical conditions, allergies, and your vets contact info. Any other info you want me to know or details about diet are always helpful.
A typical day
I like to have varied walks, I generally won’t take the same path more than twice a week unless a client insists to stick to a specific path. If there is a park nearby I like to try and spend some time there so that the dogs have an opportunity to socialize.
Services

Availability
I’m available most of the time. Please request ahead of time as I tend to be unavailable for last-minute requests unless you are a long-term client that I have been working with. I will be unavailable the last two weeks of May.
