Pet care experience

****Hello everyone 😊 At the moment, my overnight hours are from 5:45 pm in the evening to 7:45 am the following morning. On weekends and holidays, I often will be there more but can only guarantee these hours. Please note that I do not offer 24/7 care and will be unable to let your pups out during the day between 7:45-5:45. While I am there, your pets will be my life. Thank you and I look forward to quality time with your furry family members 😊 *** As a child on a farm in rural Georgia, there was never a time my family did not have pets and animals. We had cats, dogs, geese, cows, goats, chickens, even a pet squirrel at one time. I am the most happy when I am around animals, especially dogs, and I am blessed that this is my fun side-gig :-) I am attentive, meticulous, and very caring. I especially love working with rescues, geriatric, and special needs dogs and have cared for multiple dogs with health issues. I have a particular love of working with abused/traumatized dogs. I am able, with time, to establish a connection with almost every pet I meet and am extremely sensitive to each one’s emotional needs. I love singing to and dancing for the dogs I care for and I often compose on-the-spot songs just for them. I love to bring out their playfulness and to create a sense of security in my presence. My ultimate goal is for them to be happy. I don't mind pet poop, cleaning up after animals, or any of the other "dirty work" that goes along with taking care of animals. Additionally, I respect the rules established by the owners and instill a sense of confidence in the safety and security of your beloved pets. They will be in good hands. :-) I also love to clean and will be very respectful of your home and leaving it in good shape! I have certification in Animal Care Specialties/ Vet Assistant 1 as well as Pet First Aid/ CPR. Additionally, please note that I do not petsit for any exotic pets, for pets who are kept in a cage or crate for any length of time whatsoever, or for breeders. Thank you!!

Brandi is still the best! Our go-to. She has gotten to know our pups and their personalities and you can tell she loves them like her own. She sends wonderful updates over long stays, and takes great care of our home too. So thankful to have found Brandi

Information Brandi W. would like to know about your pet

How I can comfort the dog in your absence, whether or not your dogs have separation anxiety from you or from people in general, and how those anxieties might be alleviated.

A typical day

I love to cuddle and play tug of war :-) I also love to do basic training and keep the dogs intellectually stimulated. Their intelligence never ceases to amaze me.
