Pet care experience

Dog Mama & Scholar 🐾🤓

Recently moved to the Del Sur/Santa Luz neighborhood and caring for pets nearby 🐾 Always serving one family at a time and never double booking. I have been dog sitting since my undergrad days, I’m now 31 and back to school for a masters program at USD 📚 (halfway done yay!) I am a nonprofit professional at home full-time and sharing my love for pets on Rover. Pets complete a family! Bringing peace of mind for you and your fur baby is my priority - reach out for a meet & greet! My senior gentle giant is a relaxed observer, and he loves watching playdates reminding him of the good ol’ days. It’s optional for our dogs to meet because my husband is home while I babysit your fur baby 🐾 He’s a talented barber for all-ages and also a huge pet lover like me. Our dogs are socialized and go to the barbershop 💈 and dog beach 🏖️ regularly.

If you are looking for a kind, responsible, reliable, and professional sitter, I had her come over to primarily let my dog out to potty, but I also have two cats that she interacted with. I highly recommend Brenda. She was very detailed and clear on her availability for specific dates and times requested. She communicated when she arrived, documented the report card in Rover a long with a picture and let me know when she was leaving and that she locked the door when leaving. I will definitely reach out to Brenda again for future support.

I have known Brenda since 2018 and highly recommend her to any pet owner. She has always been a sweet and mature young woman. My husband and I travel frequently and have counted on Brenda many times to care for our little one while we are away.

Thanks so much for all of your patience & devotion, Brenda! Means the most to me & the babies!!🤗🐶🐕🫶🏼 Your heart is definitely in a good receiving place to care for them- im sure you can imagine, a mommas heart for her babies is primarily ensuring they’re well cared for, loved, have peace & joy, & are in entrusted hands, especially in our absence. 🥹 You’ve done so so much, I don’t think you truly know the magnitude & depth of a blessing you have been- you have brought PEACE & ORDER, & LOVE & JOY & a SOUNDNESS OF MIND, & HONOR & SUPPORT, & so much more to OUR lives!! Mine, the babies, even my partners. So WE are all so eternally grateful for you!
