I’m Heidi, mother of two, wife, animal lover, avid hiker and one who finds peace in the great outdoors. I have a BS in Zoology from Kent State University, met my husband in the Ozark Mountains and have been on an adventure ever since.

I take pride in caring for the beloved creatures that we get to share our homes with. I can proudly say that we have 1 dog who is an integral part of our daily lives. We find comfort in their love and happiness in their energy.

Getting outside, smelling the roses, and exploring the great outdoors, are always on the list. We love adventures in this house! Whether your dog needs a small walk around the block or a more adventurous hike in the mountains, that is all in a day’s work.

Our spacious, fenced in yard will provide a safe space for your dog to run around and get some exercise or chill and relax while taking in the fresh air. Access to this space is unlimited throughout their stay, which alleviates any worry about your pup getting the appropriate amount of outside time. There is plenty of shade, just the right amount of sun, lots of toys and water bowls for when they get thirsty!

Staying at our home provides your dog with the love and care of a family. They will be included in our daily lives and have fun cheering at soccer games, going for hikes, taking a night walk around the neighborhood, or lounging around watching a movie. They will have access throughout the house, can cuddle up on blankets or couches and will be read a bedtime story before falling asleep at night.

If your dog is not allowed to have blankets or access to couches/beds, they will be treated the same in our home, so your training and rules do not get altered.

The atmosphere that we strive to provide is one of safety, comfort, and good vibes. By staying in our home, it allows your dog to have an intimate stay with our family, where the environment can be catered to the needs of your pup. The right amount of stimulation and enrichment are important for a healthy stay and by having a more intimate setting, it allows your dog to be treated like a V.I.P.

Heidi was awesome to work with and my doggies and kitties were so happy. I have a house full of animals and she was so willing to help me out. My St. Bernard, Blue, stayed with Heidi and she took him hiking and he loved playing with her dog Butters.

Heidi was an amazing caregiver for our 17-year-old Llasa Apso – Buddy! He is a slow mover, has trouble seeing and trouble doing a lot of stairs. She cared for him like her own family member! She kept him close by at night so he would not be scared in an unfamiliar home, watched him on stairs/steps, took him out as often as needed, she even cleaned some spots he has on his back! She also sent updates daily with pictures and/or videos of Buddy so we could see with our own eyes, he was enjoying his stay and felt completely at home! He came back home happy and stress free! Her caring approach, knowledge of and caring for animals needs (even any health issues they may have) makes her our go to sitter for Buddy and any future pets we have! We highly recommend her!

I just wanted to thank you so much for taking care of our Summer! You
went above and beyond anything we could have asked for! You, your family
and Butters gave Summer the best vacation while we were away!
Thank you for all the hikes, bedtime stories and photos too!
Hope to see you all again soon!

Heidi is the best. We have 2 dogs, one a rambunctious 18 mo. old, the other a sweet, laid back 13 yr. old. Heidi treated them each special and according to their needs. The kid got long hikes to burn off that youthful energy and the senior got lots of love and relaxation. We will definitely be using Heidi’s services again.
