Availability

I’m currently in college on Mondays and Tuesdays from 10 AM to 5 PM, and on Wednesday afternoons from 1 PM to 5 PM. Outside of those hours, including Thursdays, Fridays, and weekends, I have full flexibility, so I can easily fit in dog walks, drop-in visits, day care, or overnight stays. This allows me to give pets consistent attention, love, and care.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at the owner’s home, I spend most of my time with them so they don’t feel lonely and can relax comfortably. In my home, I provide a cozy space for them to sleep and feel at ease, and I use cameras to check on them whenever I need to go out for errands. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and calm environment where each pet feels cared for and part of the family.

Information Heydi A. would like to know about your pet

- Any health issues, allergies, or special needs - Dietary preferences, restrictions, or favorite treats - How they get along with people, other pets, or strangers - Their daily routine—walks, playtime, naps, and favorite activities - Any little quirks or habits that make them unique This helps me give them the best care and make our time together fun and stress-free.

A typical day

I make sure to keep the pets I care for stimulated both physically and mentally. Physically, I take them on long walks in varied environments, which they love as it allows them to explore new scents while getting great exercise. Mentally, I engage them in fun activities like at-home agility games, using household items and their own treats to encourage them to find rewards. This not only tires them out in a positive way but also helps reduce anxiety and keep them calm throughout the day. Of course, they will never miss out on affection, regular potty breaks, and walks to clear their minds.

Pet care experience

I have over two years of experience caring for dogs, from young puppies to senior dogs that need extra attention and gentle care. I truly believe pets are family and deserve to be treated with love, patience, and respect. I’m a very active person, so I enjoy long walks with energetic dogs and giving them plenty of playtime and attention. I’m also comfortable caring for pets that require medication, including administering pills or liquid medication with a syringe, always making sure they feel calm and safe. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, comfortable, and cared for—just like a member of the family. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel relaxed knowing your pet is happy and safe. I’m happy to schedule a meet & greet before the booking to make sure everyone feels comfortable.

Leaving my dog with Heydi gives me total peace of mind. She takes care of every detail, from feeding to giving love, and always keeps me updated. A real relief for busy pet owners

Heydi is incredibly responsible and trustworthy. She always arrives early, pays close attention to every detail, and truly shows how much she loves animals. Every time she cares for a pet, she does an amazing job making sure they are happy, safe, and well cared for. In addition to being very professional, she is also extremely kind and easy to work with, with a very positive energy and a natural connection with animals. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and dedicated to care for their pets!

Heydi was great with my dog. You can tell she really loves animals and takes the time to make them feel comfortable. My dog liked her right away, and I felt good knowing he was well taken care of. I’d definitely trust her to watch my dog again
