However, we will travel as far east as Arcadia area (44th St between Camelback and Thomas Rd); down west to I-17 and northbound to the border of Northern Ave .

My name is Heidi and since starting this pet sitting business ten years ago, I’ve tried to surpass my client’s expectations. I will go above and beyond the average pet sitter, who comes in to quickly feed/water your pets and plants. In fact, I have many clients who say that when they arrive home after a long or short trip – their dog would run to the door looking for … Me! And, that their pet barely realized they were ever gone. For those of you who truly want the best for your pets – that’s a very good thing.

Heidi’s Historic Home & Pet Care was one of the first to start a Phoenix based professional pet sitting business. When I first started this business, most of my competitors were teenagers wanting to make a little extra $. Many entrepreneurs have since followed my lead, however, they do not have the years of experience and dedication behind them.

Please rest assured, when we say that your pets mean everything to us and that we will treat them like our own, we actually mean it!Whether myself, or trained staff comes into your home to sit, or you choose to come to mine, your pet will feel like a little kid having his favorite friend come by, or going on a fun field trip for the day.

Home security protection, as well as bringing the mail in, watering of plants, trash in/out, lights on/off, blinds up/down, while you are away. Not having to worry about your pet’s health around other animals at a kennel. Or feeling guilty thinking of them stuck in a small, confined area day and night, with two small intervals for exercise. No last minute hassles of getting your vet records together; preparations of gathering all of your pet’s supplies for their stay away and having to drive them to the “pet resort” and back again. Most importantly – many pets are scared when they go away to a strange place! They feel safe, comfortable and secure within their familiar surroundings at home.

There are occasions that call for extra attention for our little loved ones. Below are some reasons to have play-dates for your dog..

Reasons for you:

During house work (spraying for bugs, carpet cleaners, renovations, etc.)

While showing the house for sale or during an open house.

You’re throwing a party and there’s no room for doggies around.

Reasons for your dog:

Dogs are naturally pack animals and fare better from being with their own species. If you only have one dog at home, you may want to set-up a doggie play-date.

Socializes them at a young age. Dogs who are exposed to many different people and pets at a young age are less likely to be aggressive or fearful in unfamiliar places, which will lead to fewer behavioral problems down the road.

Allows them to be a dog – to run, jump, dig, chew. These are the dogs natural instincts all things humans don’t want them to do!

Tires the dog out, so that they aren’t as hyper.

Great exercise for a longer, healthier life.

The exercise releases the dogs stress and energy.

A bored dog can become a “bad-dog” where as an exercised dog leads to a well-behaved dog.

Just for fun!!

 Bathing your pet can be a messy job, let me bath, blow dry and brush your pet with love and care.

 Dog’s can get aches and pains just like us. They are harder on their bodies, and have four legs to carry all that weight around all day! For years I’ve been massaging my own dog’s to help with either their Dysplasia or Arthritis pain. To hear them sigh in relief and see them lick my hand while massaging in thank’s- is the best reward for me!

 Dog’s deserve to be pampered too – after all – they are your best friend…right? Bring energy back to their little bodies with the human touch.

Work schedules do not always permit for time away to take care of your loved one. I will take your pet to the Veterinary when you can’t find the time.   If you do not have the time in the morning or evening to take/pick up your doggie to or from my day care, I will do so for an extra fee.    No time to take your doggie to the doggie park? If you have a favorite park that you use and know your dog is well behaved with other pets at this particular park, I will take him/her to the park for an hour of fun, socializing and exercise.
