Pet care experience

Lifelong Animal Lover & Caregiver

I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and truly enjoy spending time with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities! Growing up, I helped care for my Maltese, taking care of everything from feeding, bathing, and grooming to daily walks, brushing, and lots of love and attention. I also helped raise my energetic Siberian Husky, which gave me hands-on experience with potty training, exercise, playtime, long walks, and maintaining a consistent routine. Having both a small companion dog and a high-energy working breed taught me the importance of patience, reliability, and tailoring care to each pet’s unique needs. My love for animals extends beyond dogs as well. I’ve cared for lost street cats, rescued and nurtured a baby pigeon until it was healthy enough to fly away, and looked after family pets, including a senior Shih Tzu and an Australian Shepherd mix puppy. Whether it’s an energetic pup who loves adventure, a senior dog who needs extra care, or a shy pet who needs time to warm up, I love getting to know each animal’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to provide plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care while giving owners peace of mind that their furry family member is in good hands!

Dog Walking • Jun 29, 2026

Brenda was wonderful! He arrived right on time, gave great feedback after the walk, and it was clear my dog really enjoyed spending time with her. He was professional, communicative, and caring throughout the experience. I would absolutely hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog walker.

Brenda did a wonderful job getting to know us with a meet and greet. She was early and very prepared. She was kind and patient with our puppy. We plan to ask her to help us out again soon.

Brenda was excellent with my rescue dog who has some special needs. She was communicative, on time, and thorough! I look forward to repeated walks with her in the future! 😊

Brenda was great! Gave a detailed explanation of the walk afterwards. Took Kira where I asked and didn’t come back early. Would book a walk with Brenda again :)

My husband and I needed a house sitter last minute, and she stepped right in without a hitch. She kept us updated the entire time with sweet photos and messages, allowing us to actually enjoy our trip knowing everything at home was safe and happy

Calendar and availability

Schedule

Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’ve always been surrounded by animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I’m currently studying for the MCAT, so I’m looking for flexible work that still allows me to stay active, responsible, and connected to something I love. Dog walking and pet sitting feel like the perfect fit because I enjoy caring for animals, going on walks, and creating positive routines for pets while balancing my study schedule.

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets with patience, attention, and consistency both in my home and in my clients’ homes. I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where pets feel relaxed and cared for. I follow each pet’s normal routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, grooming, crating when needed, and giving them plenty of affection and companionship. I understand that every pet has a different personality and energy level, so I adapt to their needs while making sure they feel secure, active, and happy. I also value communication and keeping owners updated so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

Pets

A typical day

I love keeping dogs engaged with fun activities like walks, fetch, tug-of-war, treat hunts, puzzle games, and basic training. I also enjoy giving plenty of affection, playtime, and one-on-one attention while making sure each activity matches their energy level and personality. Whether they enjoy active games, learning new tricks, exploring on sniff walks, or simply relaxing with extra cuddles, I always make sure they feel happy, safe, entertained, and loved throughout my time with them.

Before caring for a pet, I like to know their daily routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, favorite activities, personality, any medical conditions, medications, allergies, fears or triggers, and any training commands or house rules they follow. I also appreciate knowing their emergency contact information and veterinarian details so I can provide the safest and most comfortable care possible. Additionally, I love learning what makes each pet unique, including their favorite toys, treats, sleeping spots, and anything that helps them feel happy, secure, and at ease.
