“Heather was absolutely wonderful with my two dogs. This was the first time leaving them home and she instantly put my mind at ease, sent numerous updates and pictures showing my girls were enjoying themselves and doing well.

About: I grew up with dogs from the age of 10. I am often called the pet whisperer by family and friends because their pets often do things they don't normally do with people they don't know well. I have a very flexible schedule and will be able to accommodate the needs of the pets to walk and feed take care of them from daily to weekly where needed. At this time I do not have any yard space or ability to have pets stay with me at my house. I am willing to stay at the pet owners home if needed or stop by for their care needs.

About: Hi! I’m Sarah, your dependable and loving pet sitter. With a genuine passion for animals and years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets, I provide reliable, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or just some cuddles while you’re away, I’ll treat your furry family member like my own. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. I’m currently a full time teacher and will have open availability in the summer time to care for your pets! During the school year, I am also available after 3:30 pm on weekdays for any walks, drop in, etc. I have 2 dogs of my own and am focused on safety. Pets will always be secured with a leash while on the walks and kept away from other animals walking by. If being let out in a yard, I always double check that the fence is secured and there are no areas where dogs can escape. I have also had cats and cared for cats. I will make sure to check all doorways when coming in and out so cats will remain safe in your home.

I’m comfortable with all types of dogs & form great bonds with all the furry friends I interact with!

About: I’ve cared for dogs since the age of 9 when we got a greyhound, she developed many health issues so I became very well versed in caring for a dog with health needs, as well as caring for an amputee. I have cared for multiple dogs simultaneously and I’ve also raised puppies. Any amount of puppy mess I have seen and can clean. I can work caring for your pets into my schedule. I don’t have a schedule to adhere to for the rest of this summer. Reach out to me with dates and I can let you know my availability. I usually tend to visit the dog and home at least once or twice before pet sitting. This allows us to get to know each other and also allows me to see how the dog acts under normal circumstances.
