“Heidi was great! We felt very comfortable having her house sit our pets. She was very respectful and treated our pets well. I loved that she sent so many pictures of them while we were away!”

About: I’ve had animals my whole life from cats and dogs, to horses and cows, even snakes and scorpions! Animals are a passion of mine and there’s not much I love more! I work part time and from home so I have plenty of free time to take care of your four legged babies! I look forward to meeting them:) I will be very respectful of your home and clean up after myself and your babies, whether it be inside, outside or in a kennel, I will follow instructions as directed!
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience caring for pets with very different needs. I currently own a high energy, high maintenance three year old Labradoodle, a senior 16 year old Dachshund who requires gentle, attentive care, and two cats so I’m comfortable balancing play, structure, patience, and affection all at once. I also have experience pet-sitting for a police officer with six cats while he was on vacation, which taught me how to manage multiple pets, routines, medications, and individual personalities responsibly. I take pride in being dependable, observant, and treating every pet as if they’re my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I am working part time so it genuinely fits into my daily life just perfect! I help run a restaurant so my schedule can be altered as needed for days on Rover I may have scheduled. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, trust, and maintaining a calm, respectful environment. I follow all care instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and remain attentive to changes in behavior or health. I treat every home with the same respect I would my own—keeping things clean, organized, and secure while maintaining the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. I do communicate consistently with updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets and home are in good hands. My goal is always to create a safe, comfortable environment where pets feel relaxed and owners feel complete peace of mind.
About: Caring for animals is my passion, and I have been providing dedicated pet care for over 10 years. I prioritize the comfort and happiness of every pet, treating them as if they were my own, and ensuring a safe, stimulating, and consistent routine. I manage the needs of high-energy breeds with active play and outings, maintain a clean and secure environment, and am vigilant in observing any signs of distress or health changes. I am CPR and First Aid trained. In emergencies, I remain calm, follow pre-discussed plans, and always have emergency contact information readily available. Witnessing their unique personalities and helping shy pets feel comfortable brings me joy. My kindness and empathy make me a great fit for caring for your beloved companions. I would love to use my pet-sitting, walking, and grooming skills to care for your dogs and cats! Available any time or day. Date night, work, sleep, jus need a break I’m here to help with your pets and would love the opportunity. Fenced in yard, treats and food , safe and clean house, plenty of toys and treats and care and anything extra they may need. Thanks
