MEET THE OWNER

Heidi Lewis-Pracko

Heidi-pet-sitter-with-corgi-naples-florida-headshot

Throughout my childhood, the running joke was always, “Where’s Heidi? She’s probably with the dogs.” In 4th grade, my family adopted our Welsh Corgi, Angel - the light of my life all the way into college. When she passed away, I was devastated. Luckily for me, 4 months later, we brought another Corgi into the family. I named her Hope, because she was doing exactly that, bringing hope to our family. Thus...Heidi & Hope Pet Services!

 

Growing up, my family and I would vacation in Naples, and I volunteered with the local animal shelter and received training with vaccinations, veterinary exams, blood draws, baths, cleaning, etc. After college, I worked as a veterinary assistant in a veterinary hospital and at the Humane Society in Columbus, where I was able to work for extended periods of time with abused and abandoned animals to prepare them for adoption. Here I learned the level of patience and love I have for working with shy pets.

 

My true passion came when I began pet sitting on the weekends. Pet sitting showed me the rewards of getting to work with animals one-on-one. I LOVE being the only one to care for people’s pets and being relied upon to do so. I finally made the full-time move to Naples in 2016, where I feel lucky every day getting to live in the place that I vacationed all the time growing up. I immediately got into pet sitting upon my move and the rest is history!

Amy is originally from Ohio as well! She had many different pets growing up and as an adult, adopted her first dog, Julien, a Coton de Tulear. Having a long-haired dog required a lot of grooming, which sparked Amy’s interest in a career in professional pet grooming! She completed her AKC S.A.F.E. certification in pet grooming 10 years ago and became a mobile pet groomer in Ohio. She specialized in working with shy and senior pets. In 2019, Amy, her husband, and her dogs, Beatrice and Quincy, moved to Naples. Amy works full time for Heidi & Hope as a dog walker, pet sitter, and certified house call pet groomer! She loves being able to work with pets in their home environment.

Amy C.

Amy was born and raised in Philadelphia and moved to Naples in 1989. Throughout her entire life she always shared a home with at least one four-legged family member, often more, and is definitely known for her deep passion for all animals. For many years she worked in oncology as a radiation therapist for humans but eventually left that field in order to raise her family. Knowing the profound gift of having a pet by your side, Amy raised her two children to share that same dedication to loving and caring for all animals. Over the years, she devoted much time to volunteering for the welfare of animals and fostering rescue pets. A true highlight was in 2006 when she fulfilled her dream to visit Best Friends Animal Society in Utah. She has also worked for the Humane Society as well as a number of kennels. She currently lives with her son and four-legged boy, Zed, and misses her daughter who moved to NYC.
