“Margaret took amazing care of our 3-month-old puppy while we were out of town unexpectedly. She kept us completely at ease with regular updates and adorable videos throughout the three days. We could tell our pup was happy, safe, and well-loved the entire time. Highly recommend!”
“Cooper had a fabulous time with Laura and Manuel. I got regular photo updates of a very happy puppy getting all the love and playtime and walks and treats! Will definitely board with them again😊”
“So grateful for Ashley watching our dog Oakley! She sent great daily updates and her demeanor is so calm and kind. Oakley took to her quickly and felt comfortable during her stay. I will definitely book with Ashley next time we need her!”
“Logann was absolutely AMAZING with penny. Penny is very picky with who she likes especially in overnight situations but Logann made her feel right at home. We got plenty of pictures and updates about our furbaby and look forward to having her stay with Logann and Ollie again soon! Thank you Logann!! 🐶❤️”
“Anya and Tye took great care of my dog Pippa while we were away on vacation. The pics/videos were nice and seeing her running around with their dog in a park nearby was reassuring. Definitely will use them in the future and recommend them to family/friends!”
“Laura has been amazing, my boyfriend and I went on a family trip to Cedar Point for a weekend, and had to leave her behind for the first time. She sent multiple pictures of them playing and going on walks, and made sure to update me with how Bo was doing. She met me for a meet and greet prior to sitting, and asked all of the right questions to let me know she would take amazing care of my pup. I highly recommend her and will definitely have her pet sit again!”

“Eric was incredible! His experience caring for dogs was evident from the jump. We go lots of great photos and updates, and he communicated extremely well about how things were going, and was amendable to requests. I most definitely will use Eric again. My dog Frank appeared to have a great time, and appreciated all the walks.”
“Our dogs had a wonderful time staying with Andrew. It was Buffy’s first time boarding outside of the house rather than having a sitter stay with us, and Andrew was very accommodating of our requests as we work toward building her confidence staying with a sitter. Andrew sent updates daily and asked clarifying questions about our instructions which was greatly appreciated. Would definitely recommend!”

About: I have years of hands on experience with cats and dogs. Including my own pets, foster animals, along with being a manager at a petstore. I provide personalized care for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. I specialize in routine reinforcement, medication administration, and reading subtle pet behavior cues to keep your furry friend happy, healthy, and stress-free. I treat every pet like my own because they deserve nothing less. Pet care isn’t a side hustle, it’s part of my daily routine. I structure my mornings and evenings around walk times, feedings, and play sessions, ensuring consistency that pets thrive on. Whether it’s a daily drop in or an overnight stay, I build my schedule to match each pet’s routine so they feel safe, seen, and stress free. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, personalized environment. I have access to a quiet fenced-in dog park which is perfect for solo pups who need space to decompress. Dogs also get individual leash walks tailored to their energy level. If your dog gets along with mine, they’re welcome to freely roam the apartment. If not, they’ll enjoy supervised playtime and have their own cozy room to relax in. Cats get the VIP treatment too, with a private room with a litter box, toys, and a scratching post for comfort and enrichment. When caring for pets in your home, I stick closely to your routines such as feeding, walking, meds, and play. So your pet feels safe, secure, and at home even when you’re away. I respect your space and keep everything clean, calm, and exactly how you’d want it.
“Banner loves Hamani! We he came to pick him up he hopped right in his car no whining no hesitation. Hamani sent pics and communicated how things were going. I appreciate his patience and you can tell he has a love for dogs.”
“Callie always has a great time at Heather's and is well cared for. Heather is flexible with minor adjustments to the pick up and drop off times based on changes in our travel plans and is quick to respond to any questions we have.”
“Ariana is a perfect dog sitter. Her residence is fenced in and her dog Yogi 🐾 🐕🦺 is so friendly. My Pfeifer had a blast and was worn out from all the play time. She slept all the way home and most of the remaining day. Will use Ariana again in a heartbeat.”
“Katie and Kristen were great! They sent photos of my dog Indi regularly and were quick to respond to any messages. Indi seemed really comfortable when I picked him up, and it looked like their dog Jasper and Indi got along well! I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again.”

Emily S.
“Emily has watched my dog twice and each time has been such a great experience for me and my dog! Ollie (my dog) is afraid of meeting new dogs and can be pretty defensive; but Emily made him feel safe by keeping him in his own room. She let me know that if I was comfortable with it, she could have my guy meet her two dogs through a door first, I knew Ollie was in good hands and I totally trusted Emily, so ultimately all the dogs became best friends! I know I left my little guy in capable hands and I’m so glad I found Emily! She also sent me update photos while I was away, so it was super reassuring to know that both Ollie and Emily were having a good time together! I highly recommend her, your dog will be happy to make new friends and be well taken care of by Emily.”
