Pet care experience

Experienced Animal Care Provider

Past experience working at a dog boarding facility in Chicago for several years! (Paradise 4 Paws) I’m very patient and reliable. I’m comfortable with all ages and breeds (Dogs, Cats, Birds, Rabbits). I also lived on a farm growing up. Was a part of 4H raising dogs, rabbits and cows. I love animals and would like to help in anyway.

Safety, trust & environment

I can watch smaller dogs in my house. I have 2 small terriers. Full fenced in yard in a quiet neighborhood. They do well with other small dogs. I never leave new dogs alone with mine. They are only together supervised.

Heather visited with Ruby before and were friends from the beginning. She was on time at the agreed hours and took care of Ruby with no issues. I found her to be friendly, reliable and pampering towards Ruby. I would not hesitate to have her take care of Ruby anytime. Thanks Heather, till next time!

Heather has been amazing with our giant baby (100lb black lab)! We hired her for 2 a day walks and she was prompt and walked him so well. He loved the exercise. We will definitely book again.
