Totally crazy about Dogs!!!

Pet care experience

I am a retired professional and I grew up with a Boxer and owned 4 German Shepards over the years. Now I am living with 2 adorable Westies named Buddy and Skippy. They are my Kids, they are sweet and well behaved and not agressive at all. I live in a 2000 sq.ft. Townhome for the past 12 years with a large balcony and patio out back. There is lots of greenspace around my complex and Grasslawn, Marymoor Park and the Gilman Trail are just minutes away. I am now a bead artist and spend most of my time at home. I would love to take care of your dogs. I also can take care of your plants and whatever else needs care while you are away. Your dog can stay with me, or I can come to your home. Expect the same loving care as I give to my dogs. Why I love dog sitting I grew up with a Boxer named Heddi and all my life had a dogs mostly German Shepards and now I have only 1 adorable Westie. Our sweet Skippy suddenly passed away on Dec.11.2015. I miss her so much. I love dogs, they are so much company and I could not imagining beeing without one. Meet my pets I now have only 1 Westie by the name of Buddy. He is very sweet and tolerant and gets along with all kinds of dogs. Our sweet Skippy that was with me for 14 years suddenly passed away on Dec. 11. 2015. She was never away from me for 14 years. The pain is intolerable when you loose such a loyal companion. May she rest in peace! About my yard I have a large Balcony and a Patio in the back where the dogs can play. The complex where I live has ample greenspace for additional walks and My experience administering medication I am comfortable to give your dog any needed medication.

Heide was great with our Havanese, Jasper we got updates and pictures while we were away. He also made friends with their dogs Nikki and Buddy. So glad we found her!

We've used Heide for lots of stays over the years, and have had a pleasant experience every time. They are able to give our dog tons of attention and walks, and he has a great time staying with them. And it's always fun to see photos of him throughout the stay.

Heide and her husband Alex went above and beyond for my little dog Sadie. She didn’t want to leave! :) Sadie got 3 walks a day and tons of attention and love. Heide was very accommodating when I had to change the dates last minute and very flexible about drop off and pick up times. They even recommended a slow eating feeding bowl because they noticed Sadie eating too quickly which has helped so much already! They definitely have a true passion for dogs which shows. We will definitely book with them again.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks Your dog will get walks at Grasslawn Park, Marymoor Park and around our complex. Sometimes I go to the Gilman Trail, but heavy bike traffic limits that a bit. Also the trail along Bearcreek Pkwy is another great walk. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Your dog can sleep wherever he is comfortable, preferable he should have his own blanket or bed, but not necessary. Time I'll spend with your dog My dogs get 3 walks a day, and lots play in between. Your dog will always get the same. Time I'll spend with your dog If staying at your home, I will be with your dog all day, keep him on his regular schedule and outings. He will receive the same loving care as if he would be my own.
