Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I will follow their routine closely to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I make safety my top priority by keeping a clean environment, ensuring doors and gates are secure, and providing plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I treat every home and pet with respect and care, and I keep owners updated so they can feel confident while they are away.

I care for every pet like family.

Pet care experience

What sets me apart from other pet sitters is the level of personalized care and attention I give to every pet. I understand that each animal has its own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, including energetic puppies who need patience, consistency, and basic training reinforcement, as well as senior pets who require extra attention, medication administration, and gentle care. I am comfortable following detailed care instructions, maintaining feeding and exercise schedules, and providing regular updates with photos and messages for peace of mind. My goal is not just to watch your pet, but to build trust with them and create a positive, stress-free experience. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the affection, exercise, and care they deserve.

We've had Heywarc take care of our cats, dogs, and chickens several times, and he's been great every time. It's such a relief to know our animals are being looked after by someone who is reliable and genuinely enjoys being around them. He does a great job making sure everyone is fed, cared for, and getting the attention they need. Our pets are always happy and comfortable when we get home, and we never have to worry while we're away. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and easy to work with, I would definitely recommend Heyward as a pet sitter. We're grateful to have someone we can count on to take such good care of our animals.
