Caitlyn is about as hard a counter as you can get for Heimer, she outranges him really hard, his turrets are practically useless against her, either to keep her back or to farm with because she can destroy them effortlessly and safely before Heimer can do anything about it. He can still poke her some with rockets, but the rest of the time she is probably gonna zone him hard, and it's unlikely he will really be able to win the lane unless he specifically builds against her.

His best bet is probably to just farm from as far back as he can, level grenade over turret (for the potential blind and shorter cooldowns mainly, but it also is more efficient for farming against someone who can easily kill your turrets in lane... still level rockets though), and get pots or a philo stone so he can live through her harass and not get totally outfarmed.
