I like BIG MUTTS and I cannot lie!

YOUR DOG(S) ONLY! Reasons to choose a sitter that cares for one family of pets at a time: #1 If your pup(s) becomes over stimulated in an environment with lots of other dogs. I have only one sweet, silly Golden Retriever pup of my own and he is growing up helping me do Rover and welcoming new dogs to my home. #2 If you have a senior dog that prefers a quiet and calm environment not shared with multiple other dogs. #3 If our fur baby is wonderfully and deservingly spoiled, and you want them to have my undivided attention, love and care. I work from home, which allows your pet the freedom of my home and fenced yard throughout the day. I look forward to fun times with medium to giant dogs of all ages.

Boarding • Jun 11, 2026

We normally board our dogs when we travel, but this trip was longer than usual, so we decided to explore other options. Choosing Heather was one of the best decisions we could have made. Heather was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Leaving our pups at home can be stressful, but she made the entire experience so much easier and gave us complete peace of mind. She provided daily updates with photos and videos, which made our hearts so happy and reassured us that our dogs were not only being well cared for, but genuinely loved and spoiled while we were away. It was clear that Heather treated our dogs like they were her own. They were happy, comfortable, and able to stay in their familiar environment, which made a huge difference. The level of communication, care, and attention she provided exceeded every expectation we had. After this experience, we can confidently say we will never go back to traditional boarding. We are incredibly grateful for Heather and would recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy, compassionate, and exceptional pet care.

Heather & Mark take the best care of my girl! It is so nice to enjoy time away knowing she is being loved & cared for so well. I love all the photos & videos they send me, and always right when I'm missing her! Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Lori

We were very happy with the care our dog received with Heather and Mark. Communication was excellent and our dog was well loved. We couldn’t have hoped for more. Thank you so much. ☺️

Heather is the best dog lover! My 10-year-old girl was very well cared for & had a great time with her dog, Monroe. Heather is as personable as she is professional. We will definitely be back!

Heather and Mark are awesome! Our pup had a great time with their dog, Monroe. They went out of their way to provide a fun and great experience for our pup and sent several pictures and videos. I highly recommend!

Having our big dogs with Heather and Mark is really the only time we can actually relax and enjoy a trip. We know they are taken care of with love and they have so much fun!
