“This was the first time using Rover and I’m so happy I chose Maddie. She came to the house to meet our 3 dogs before my trip and see their routine.

I can finally relax knowing I can travel in the future without worrying about my critters”

About: Hello! My name is Brooke and I own my own petsitting business called “Brooke’s Wagging Tails,” where I have/had over 25 clients around the Inland Empire who’s dogs and pets I take care of when they’re away. I am a freshman student at Suffolk University in downtown Boston. I am part of my schools honors program, will be double majoring and double minoring, and am on the Varsity women’s soccer team here at Suffolk. I’m looking to start my business back up out here, as I miss all my doggies back home SO much, and need some animals in my new life out here. Back at home, I acquired a 4.3 GPA at MLK high school in Riverside, and was involved in AP classes as well as college courses, volunteering at the local animal shelter, civic engagement and leadership, and club and high school flag football and soccer. I also worked at a Petstore the Summer before I left for college for about 3 months. I have a passion for animals, and the past year of petsitting has been one of the most meaningful of my life so far, I love to meet new faces daily. I wanted to post that I have space in my schedule coming up this school year, especially in the Spring, and if you are looking for a trustworthy, kind, and respectful person to watch your animal(s), feel free to reach out to me anytime! I would love to meet your dogs, cats, horses, or critters, and am able to provide references if that would make you feel comfortable! I do overnight petsitting anywhere in Boston (i live downtown but it’s no problem walking or taking the T), dog walking, day care, etc., in my clients residences. Feel free to reach out anytime with questions, meet and greets, or availability. I’m very much looking forward to meeting you and your babies!! I always have time for animals. Being around them and taking care of them and fostering a connection with them is something that soothes my soul, and has brought me a lot of happiness throughout the past couple of years. I can work out exact scheduling with you if you’re interested, but I will without a doubt make the time! I do overnight sitting in my clients homes for the most part. I have a couple of years of experience running my business, and a 9 year old dog of my own. I do special food requests, walks, am comfortable administering medication, picking up mail/housesitting, etc.
About: I've looked after a lot of friends' animals. When they get dirty, I know how to bathe them and clean up after them. Both the amount of food and water they require are known to me. I care for my five pets at home every single day starting at the age 13. Since dogs are genuinely a man's best friend, I genuinely adore every single dog. I'm a recent high school graduate with lots of free time to play with your puppies! I enjoy walking dogs because it helps me get exercise and I get to see how happy and healthy the dogs are! Your pet can run around in my spacious fenced yard in Riverside, where they can run wherever they want. The yard is all fenced up so it will be extremely safe for your puppies!
“My puppy loved her!! She was so flexible knowing I just got her and have been working on training her. They worked on crate manners, got some cuddles, and potty breaks! Will definitely be a returning client :)”
