Information Heidi L. would like to know about your pet

A MEET AND GREET WITH PET AND OWNER IS REQUIRED. Is your dog reactive while on a leash? Do they pull on leash? How do you ask them to relieve themselves? Do they know basic commands--sit, down, stay. Will they bolt if given the opportunity? Do they have any food allergies? Do they have a history of biting?

A typical day

I like to take the dogs on adventures. If you would like me to take you dog on a hike or to the beach, please sign up for 60 minutes. If we need to stay closer to home, we can walk, play, brush, pet. The needs of your pet are my priority.

Pet care experience

MATURE and RESPONSIBLE DOG LOVER. I’ve had dogs from small to giant. I am a volunteer at the Agoura Animal Shelter and Ventura County Animal Shelter. I have many years of experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and currently I have a Treeing Walker Hound, and a senior Cocker Spaniel (both are rescues). I provide hotel pet sitting, hiking, walking, and check-ins. A MEET AND GREET WITH THE PET AND THEIR OWNER IS REQUIRED.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Heidi! From the moment we left for our vacation, she made us feel completely at ease knowing our puppy was in such caring and capable hands. Heidi was exceptional with communication, providing regular updates, thoughtful messages, and plenty of adorable photos that helped us stay connected to our little one while we were away. Her updates gave us tremendous peace of mind and allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation without worrying about our pup at home. What impressed us most was how Heidi consistently went above and beyond. When our puppy experienced a bit of an upset stomach, Heidi thoughtfully purchased some pumpkin to help her feel better. She also took the initiative to clean up the poop in our side yard, which was incredibly appreciated and certainly not something we expected. These small acts of kindness demonstrated just how much she genuinely cares about the pets and families she serves. Heidi also spent time working on leash training with our energetic, curious puppy—a task that is not always easy! Her patience, dedication, and willingness to reinforce good habits showed her commitment to our dog's well-being and development. It is clear that Heidi is passionate about what she does and truly loves the animals she cares for. We are beyond grateful for the exceptional care she provided and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and dedicated pet sitter or dog walker. Thank you, Heidi, for taking such amazing care of our girl. We look forward to booking with you again in the future! 🐾❤️

Heidi was great with our German Shepherd. She was on time and spent great time quality time playing with him while he was let out and fed.

AMAZING! I needed help for my aunt who had broken her leg. Heidi was amazing. She went over and above the call of duty. She did so much more than walk my aunt's dog. Best experience ever!
