Walks, treats, & snuggles!

Pet care experience

I grew up in Philadelphia with fish, cats, dogs, and even chickens! Taking care of our family's pets was always one of our chores as a teenager. Our border collies had puppies (two sets) during high school and taking care of the puppies was so memorable. I have had dogs come to my art studio and spend time there while I'm painting or sculpting for the past ten years. I have helped my family and friends with taking care of their pets while away on vacation or any last minute emergency.

Heidi was outstanding. When we got home from vacation, I think Max was almost disappointed when we walked in the door instead of Heidi. She cared for and loved on Max as we would have and the house was spotless. Heidi communicated multiple times a day which eased our minds on Max who is a senior lab and can be a little challenging at times. Heidi will be our first choice every time.

I can’t say enough about Heidi. We contacted her to house-sit our rescue, Gunner. She was communicative and friendly from the start. She knew this was the first time we ever left him alone and were worried he’d feel abandoned again. Our fears were unfounded. She made a few visits before our trip so they were familiar with each other. She provided regular updates with pictures of them going for walks, playing, and snuggling up with each other. As if that wasn’t enough, she cleaned, laundered the linens, and remade the bed. It’s not easy finding someone you trust with your pets and feel secure giving them access to your home. Heidi is the real deal. Thank you so much, Heidi!

Perfect!!! Heidi was amazing, she visited twice before we left - her idea - to make sure dogs were comfortable with her. She sent pics and I could tell the dogs were as happy as they could be while their family is away. Heidi will be my first call any time I need to leave them again. Couldn’t recommend higher!

Heidi was a caring sitter for both our dog and home. Our pup can be a bit brooding when we leave. Heidi was patient with her and kept us in the loop. The house was very clean upon our return home with everything as she stated. (Plants were watered too.) Thank you, Heidi!

Safety, trust & environment

I am happy to follow what your pet's needs and wants are so that all parties are happy, safe, and comfortable. I will offer complimentary visits & walks so that your pet & I have a better bond before our initial visit. If you have a breed that unfortunately has a bad reputation such as a pit bull, Rottweiler, or a dog that has been abused, I prefer to spend more time than a “meet & greet” to better our trust and bond.

Information Heidi K. would like to know about your pet

•If your dog has been abused or neglected. •Breed •Large dogs? How do they behave on walks? •If they are elderly. •Are they a jumper? •House trained? •Your pets commands / language •Lease aggressive? •Food allergies? •Do they pull on walks?

A typical day

If your pet has certain activities that they like I would be happy to engage them in those things along with car rides in the neighborhood, going to the park for a walk & playing ball. The Schuylkill River Trail, Green Lane, or Valley Forge are wonderful places to go for longer walks if your dog needs more exercise.
