Pet care experience

Dogs are a woman's best friend.

I have been around dogs my entire life and plan to always be. I currently have two dogs, Doc, an English Springer Spaniel, and Jax, a German Shepherd pup. We rescued Jax when he was about 8 months old and he has been with us ever since. Doc has been around many dogs and is great with all of them. Because of his breed, Doc has had some health issues from a young age, including ear infections and pretty severe allergies. I am used to administering meds and other necessary requirements for your pup. I know people's pets are their family. With that being said, I will treat your dog like it is my own.

Heather was great! Our dog and house were both well cared for, and she went above and beyond to ask if we wanted certain things done. We appreciate how much time was spent showing our dog she’s loved even though we weren’t home.

Heather did an awesome job. Our flight was delayed a whole day and she went back and stayed an extra night to make sure our pups were taken care of. Definitely will use again.

Heather is wonderful with our three dogs. She caters to each one of their needs. Heather updates us with pictures and contacts is when needed. Heather recently cared for our pups while one was very ill. Heather takes care of our dogs like they are her own. Our dogs are always happy when we get home from a trip away when Heather watches them.

Pups had a great time while we were on vacation. Heather went above and beyond and went to pick up some dog food for us when our Chewy delivery short circuited. It was great to have some peace of mind. Highly recommend.

I would highly recommend heather if you need someone to stay at your home and watch your pets! She did an amazing job and I never had to worry if they were taken care of!

Heather was great with Abbey. She stayed at our house and kept up updated with daily pictures or texts. We will definitely use her again.

Schedule

I am a first grade teacher so during the week I’m usually at work from 7-3:00pm. I’m usually free on the weekends and love spending time with dogs throughout the day. If it’s during the summer, my schedule is much more open during the week.
