This is my work full time for now, so I'm always home unless I'm running some errands to help out my family. Your dogs will never be unattended since my family also helps me watch them.

Information Brenda C. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know how big your dog is, if they get along when meeting new people/dogs, if it is potty trained, if they take any meds or have separation anxiety, etc. Also let me know if it has a habit of chewing things around them so we can try to be extra careful.

A typical day

If the dog is more active, I let them waste their energy out in my backyard playing with my two dogs. Sometimes, I have more than one client staying over, so your dog will make new friends and socialize with them from time to time. I do NOT offer separate walks, other than taking them out to my backyard to run around. Otherwise, I would have to charge extra as a Dog Walk gig included (which is $30/30mins).

Pet care experience

Ever since I was kid, I've always had pets so it was normal for me to know how to take care of them. I've had dogs, cats, birds, fish, hamsters and turtles and I've loved them all so much. Animals make my day happier and I have rarely encountered an animal that disliked me. I have a playful side when I meet them but I can also be strict and discipline them by telling them what not to do with the tone of my voice. In this way, I actually trained my older sister's dog to obey, sit, give a handshake, and respect me. I am a natural leader to these animals. I give them freedom to jump on the couch and play around the house or the backyard, but unless I tell them to, they cannot be in our beds. I can play, bathe, and feed your dog as well. I am sure we will have fun together and I will take care of them as if they were my own. ‼️‼️‼️‼️ On a side note, my calendar here may seem empty, but I might be pretty booked for the day with my other clients out of here, which is why it's really helpful to let me know ahead of time of your requests so I can accommodate you better 😊. I have a fenced yard and 2 playful doggies to keep your pup company. They all run around or play fetch until they're tired enough. Thank you in advance!

Always a pleasure. We had to bail at the last minute and she was gracious and sweet.

Brenda is great! She sent me pictures throughout the day and took great care of Bernice. I booked Bernice for an overnight stay in a week, and today was a test run to get Bernice acquainted with Brenda.

Brenda has been wonderful. She sends pictures and updates throughout the day and our pup gets so excited to see her every time. We plan on continuing to use Brenda’s service whenever we need support with our girl.

Brenda watched our cat in her home and was awesome. Our cat is shy with other people at first, but very social at heart. Brenda made our cat comfortable when he initially arrived and was afraid, and by the end of his stay he was out and about and getting plenty of love from Brenda. We definitely recommend her as a pet sitter and will definitely be using her again in the future.
