Cozy & Low-Stress Retreat
As someone who shared 15 wonderful years with my own beloved dog, I know firsthand just how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone new. I want you to have complete peace of mind while you're away, and I want my home to feel like a cozy, safe extension of yours. I take the time to learn your pet's quirks and personality traits so they get the exact affection, routine, and comfort they are used to. My home is a calm, steady, and peaceful environment, making it a relaxing retreat for adult and senior dogs and cats. Please note that I do not currently accept puppies, kittens, or pets that require medical attention. Meet & Greets: I highly recommend a brief meet-and-greet beforehand to ensure my home is the right fit for your pet. What to Expect During the Stay: 1. Daily Updates: I know you will miss your pet, so I provide reliable daily update with a photo so you can see how they are settling in. To ensure my time and attention remain entirely focused on caring for the animals, I kindly ask that you rely on these scheduled updates rather than checking in throughout the day. 2. Tailored Care: Whether your companion is a couch potato who wants belly rubs or a curious explorer who loves a good walk or play session, I tailor my day to their energy levels. House Rules for a Happy Stay To keep a low-stress, consistent routine for the animals in my care, I ask that all clients respect the following boundaries: 1. All drop-offs and pick-ups must occur between 7:00 AM and 8:00 PM. 2. I no longer accommodate drop-offs before 7:00 AM. If you have an early morning flight or commitment, please schedule your pet for a slumber party the night before! 3. Please arrive promptly at our agreed-upon times. I balance pet sitting with my own professional and personal commitments, so I rely on your punctuality to keep my day on track. 4. Please bring your pet's regular daily food along with any favorite comfort items, like a beloved blanket, their bed, toys, or special treats. 5. My home is set up for lounging, so please leave heavy crates at home unless your pet absolutely loves theirs and considers it a necessary safe space.

Ratings and reviews
Heidi was awesome! Would recommend her to any of my friends with pets. She was extremely communicative and sent updates about my little rascal. She truly made me feel at ease using Rover for the first time in a while. My pup enjoyed his time with her :)
Always well taken care of. Lots of adorable photos. I can tell Missy was loved.
Heidi is really good at communicating. She took very good care of my frenchie while I was on vacay. I used her additional pickup & drop off option. That made my day of & return travel day so much easier. Also, Thank You so much for all the cute pics.
Heidi was very responsive and proactive with communicating with us. She sent photos multiple times a day and took great care of our two pups. She noted their energy levels and checked in with us on our older dog when she noticed he was walking slower than usual. I would highly recommend booking with Heidi and I would definitely ask for her to care for our dogs again.
Heidi was great and flexible-- thank you!
Heidi is fantastic! She is incredibly kind and takes wonderful care of my dog. Lily always comes home happy and well cared for after staying with her. Heidi provides regular updates, along with the best photos, which gives me great peace of mind while I'm away. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. 10/10!

Schedule
My work schedule is flexible therefore I can schedule my work to accommodate the need of your fur baby. Each morning kicks off with breakfast, followed by invigorating walks. Throughout the day, regular water access is maintained, with mid-day activities and medication administration if needed. Evenings are dedicated to dinner, quality time, and a relaxing walk or play session.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I reside in an apartment, yet I prioritize your dog's well-being by ensuring regular walks in the morning, afternoon, and evening. I am meticulous in attending to specific care needs, including grooming and maintaining the litter box. Moreover, I keep pet owners in the loop with consistent updates, photos, and messages, providing them with peace of mind and a glimpse into their furry friend's daily adventures.
A typical day
Whether it's an energetic game of fetch or a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood, your pet will get the exercise they need and have a great time doing it. Beyond play, I understand the importance of companionship. Your pet can look forward to plenty of cuddles, belly rubs, and genuine affection to make them feel right at home. I'm dedicated to ensuring your pet has a positively enriching experience during our time together. If there are specific activities your pet particularly enjoys or any preferences you'd like me to accommodate, please feel free to let me know. I'm here to make this a fantastic and stress-free experience for both you and your furry friend!

- To ensure the best possible experience for both your pet and me, here are a few key things I'd love to know ahead of time: 1. Daily Routine: Understanding your pet's daily routine helps maintain a sense of familiarity. When are their usual feeding times, walks, play sessions, and nap periods? 2. Health Considerations: Any specific health concerns, dietary restrictions, or medications. 3. Comfort Zones: Does your pet have a favorite spot in the house or any areas where they may feel uncomfortable? Knowing their comfort zones helps me create a safe and stress-free environment. 4. Socialization: How does your pet typically interact with other animals or people? This information helps me navigate social situations appropriately. 5. Emergency Contacts: It's always good to have emergency contacts handy, including your veterinarian's information. Your peace of mind is essential, and I want to be well-prepared for any situation.
