Bonded. Insured. CPR/First Aid Cert

Pet care experience

I grew up being the owner and care giver of several long-term pets, both dogs and cats. My passionate is the care, safety, comfort and happiness of pets. My time and attention will be devoted completely to your pet, unlike some who "share your paid time" with other pets/clients. I am insured and bonded. I am certified in pet CPR and first aid. I use a GPS tag on all pets while they are outside, in my care. My mission is to provide affordable and reliable dog walking and pet care/sitting services, tailored to your pet’s needs. I believe all animals are social animals who thrive best in their own home and environment and are happier if walked and played with throughout the day, versus being left alone for several hours, crated or boarded. I will provide individualized services with the care and love you expect for your pet. You pet's care, safety, and happiness is my #1 priority. Let's meet and make a plan for you pets care. I look forward to serving you and my community.

To begin our review, we would like to say that Hedda is a wonderful sitter! We hired her to come to our house twice a day to check on and feed our very fearful, timid Chihuahua (not to mention our dog has stomach issues as well) while we were gone on our honeymoon. She was so patient and kind with our fur baby and did a phenomenal job with everything. We just can't say enough about how amazing Hedda is...we highly recommend hiring her!

If you want to go on vacation and have peace of mind then Hedda is the sitter for you. I can't say enough good things. I have three dogs and two have a history of getting into fights if they get too excited. Needless to say I was quite nervous to leave them. But Hedda not only kept everything calm, but she put in several hours before my trip getting to know my dogs and their routine so everyone would be at ease. She also sent me texts everyday to let me know how things were going. I can't thank Hedda enough for all she did. I was able to go on vacation and have fun for the first time in a long time. I will undoubtedly have Hedda back and will tell everyone what a great sitter she is.

Hedda was a dream dog sitter. We got updated daily on how our pup was doing (with pictures). She even bought our dog a Christmas present since we were gone over the Holiday. Our house was cleaner than we left it, and we never worried about a thing while we were gone. Hedda has a way with dogs. Ours is a special case, who needs a lot of time to get used to people. Hedda was totally at ease, which in turn made them quick friends. I cannot imagine there are better sitters in the area than Hedda!

Hedda has a way with animals. She cares about them, cares for them, and takes her responsibilities very seriously. Anyone who takes advantage if her pet sitting business will be glad they did. We recommend her highly.

Information Hedda B. would like to know about your pet

I will need to know the dog breed. Is the dog is leash trained? Separation anxiety? Bites? Aggressive or shy? Does the dog listen to basic commands. Diet, emergency contact info, toy and sleep preferences. Play time preferences. Also need to know the same for cats.

A typical day

There are several dog parks in Grand Rapids that I utilize. Covell, Grand Ravines & Hillcrest. Also your neighborhood if it is a good walking place. If you are a member of Shaggy Pines Dog Park I can take you dog there for runs and activities like fetch, and chasing. What ever your dog is used to we can do together. I have fun walks. Adventure walks. Playtime consists of laser tag, fetch with frisbee & balls, and catnip bubbles.
