Highlights
Pet care experience
Whiskers, Wags, & Happy Pets 🐾
Hi there! I’m Heidi, and I’m excited to offer reliable, compassionate care for your pets. I have 4 years of experience working as a Vet Tech Assistant in a veterinary clinic, where I assisted veterinarians with complex medical procedures, patient monitoring, and hands-on animal care. Along with my clinical background, I also have years of personal experience caring for my own dogs and cats. I’ve had pets throughout much of my life, and while I don’t currently have any at home, it means I can give your pets my full attention during walks, drop-ins, or house-sitting visits. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Whether your pet needs a long walk, quiet companionship, help following a medical routine, or someone calm and confident with nervous animals, I’m here to help and keep them feeling safe and cared for in their own home.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in your home, I always follow your instructions closely to make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent and comfortable. I treat your home with the same respect as I do your pet—maintaining your space, keeping things tidy, and respecting your privacy at all times. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe and happy in their familiar environment while giving you peace of mind that everything is being cared for responsibly.
Ratings and reviews
Heidi has been an incredible caregiver for our pup! She took Sweetie on some great walks and was really great at getting our nervous girl to go with her. I will definitely be calling Heidi in the future.
Thank you Heidi for taking great care of my cats!
Heidi was fantastic! She communicated well and took the best pictures of my 2 cats. I had to book last minute and she was very nice about it and was even able to stay an extra day when my flight was canceled. She took excellent care of the pets and the home. If I ever need to get a pet sitter again I will be using Heidi if she's available!
She was amazing and took such good care of my dogs! In the future if I need pet services again I would book Heidi!!
Very communicative, easy to work with and timely!
Heidi was great! My cats seemed like they really liked her. They are a bit iffy about strangers, but both cats seemed to feel comfortable with her from the first day (seeing as they were both in the photos). She was very communicative during during her visits which made me feel a lot better. I'm pretty anxious about leaving my cats, but felt a lot better after her first drop-in. She takes great photos which is also comforting, since they seem to be happy in their photos. Came home to a couple of calm and satisfied kitties! I'll definitely work with heidi again!

Schedule
I work a full-time, hybrid schedule, which gives me flexibility throughout the week. I’m happy to provide dog walks and dog/cat check-ins before or after work, depending on your pet’s routine. I’m also available for extended house-sitting stays on weekends and during the week, ensuring your pets get consistent company, care, and attention right in their own home.
