Pet care experience

Dog & Cat Lover - UIC Student

Hello! My name is Heidi, and I am a fulltime UIC student who loves caring for dogs and cats of all shape and sizes. I grew up with a dog and have experience caring for my friends dogs and cats, including feeding, playtime, walks, and providing companionship. Pets are important to my family, and I will make sure yours receive plenty of attention, care, and love while you're away.

Heidi did a great job sitting my dog. She followed instructions and was on time. She would update me on my pet and send pictures. She was quick to communicate and was very accommodating. Would definitely recommend.

Heidi is a very caring person and respectful of people's boundaries. Not only will she take care of your pets like they're her own, she will do so with the same attention to detail that you would have towards their care. I had to go to California on an emergency trip and she took care of my cat, Pumpkin. She followed the food schedule, gave her the attention she needed, and even clipped her claws. When I came home, I was happy to see that my Pumpkin had gotten comfortable with her, which is a lot to say given that she is very nervous around strangers. Heidi is gentle and committed to always be the very best at what she does.
