I work for myself part time as a hairstylist. I make my own hours so it is very easy to not schedule on the days I am needed or to schedule large breaks in between.

Safety, trust & environment

As a former nanny and elder millennial (lol) I am very responsible first! I always double check leashes, harnesses, doors, etc so you can leave your home feeling great with your guys in my hands. At my clients home, I very much like to follow their rules and instructions to the detail. I keep a photo and/or list of all instructions on my phone and a physical copy in my car. At my own home, I like to listen to what my clients feel comfortable with and follow that as discussed with them. I do like their pets to feel like I’m their loving grandma- they always get extra love and long walks when I come to see them!

Information Braelynn H. would like to know about your pet

I like to have detailed instructions! I want your pets to have their schedule stuck to as much as possible. I enjoy information, so the more the better. I also like to do research on the breeds I am looking after so I know about them as well.

A typical day

I love to spread kindness and joy! I’m a very active person and can walk or hike for hours if that is something your guys love. I also can accomade lower energy dogs that may need to be carried home from down the block lol. I really enjoy stick toys with cats as they have SO much fun with them. With dogs, I enjoy short training sessions with commands and training treats or good ole back scratches as rewards. I prefer to stay active if your pets are up for it. I also love to read or crochet for hours while cuddling on the couch.

Former nanny & animal foster mom!

Pet care experience

I pet sit because I want to, not because I need to💜. I live on the trail and have a small yard! It’s a passion of mine to be around your pets. As the the oldest of 5 much younger siblings and a former professional nanny, I am a natural caregiver! Now, I am an independent hairstylist that works for myself, and as an animal lover, I have naturally become many of my clients trusted go-to pet sitter, especially for in house vacation pet sitting. I am highly trained as a former animal foster (including the bottle babies that require so much attention and responsibility) and as a professional care giver. I also grew up with non-traditional critters including, but not limited to, hedgehogs, salamanders, iguanas, guinea pigs, gerbils, etc. so I’m cool with whatever you throw at me! LGBTQ+ friendly!!

Due to her lack of response, had to call Rover and get them involved to receive a refund. Do not book this person. She will cancel on you last minute and leave you high and dry.
