Pet care experience
Please read thoroughly :) Hi! I am a current college student at Augusta University, and I live in Columbia County. I have been caring for animals of all kinds (dogs, cats, fish, even goats!) for as long as I can remember. My other experience includes pet sitting for family friends, and my family fostering dogs with behavior problems to help them find forever homes. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I recently lost my 14 and a half year old heart dog, Molly.💗 I miss her everyday, and I am not ready to adopt another dog. However, I do love helping others and especially animals, so I would love to provide a temporary safe and loving space for your pet while you’re away.
Reviews
Brendan did such a great job with our dog. It was hard to leave her because she has seizures, and Brendan went the extra mile to make our family feel comfortable while we traveled!!
Brendan did a great job taking care of my cat. She sent me pictures and updates everyday and he was happy and seemed well-cared for when I got back from my trip!
This is our first time using this app and I have to say Brendan is wonderful she checked in with videos and pictures. Took wonderful care of our fur babies. I highly recommend her hands down! ♥️
Brendon was absolutely amazing with my dog! Brendan is great with animals and you can tell she loves furbabies. I will use her again in the future.

There are no other pets in my household at the moment, so your baby gets my full love and attention! I will only accept multiple pets from the same household, and can only take 3 pets at a time :) My late dog, Molly did suffer from seizures toward the end of her life, so I have plenty of experience dealing with the seizures themselves and providing daily medication for anything. I also have experience with special diets. I do request that your dog is crate trained and that you will bring a crate with you upon the first date of the booking. This ensures the safety of your pet while they are in an unfamiliar place. I will never leave a pet in my care for more than 2 hours. The crate would only be used to your instruction, if I needed to transport them in my car in an emergency (etc.), or if I needed to leave the house for a short amount of time. If on the first day of the booking the pet does not arrive with a crate, I will cancel the booking entirely. Safety is my top priority, and crates are a useful tool to keep pets safe. Thank you for your consideration and understanding. I will follow your instructions for the care of your pet to the nth degree. I’m very protective of my own dog, so I completely understand and appreciate thorough instructions on how to keep your pet safe and happy :) If you feel that I would be a good fit for you and your pets, please reach out!
Information Brendan A. would like to know about your pet
I will request photos of up to date rabies and vaccine records for the safety of other pets who will visit my home in the future before booking. I do not have any preferences on breeds or sizes. I have experience with many different types of animals and love them all the same!
A typical day
I love walking at the Savannah Rapids! I will play with your pets, while also providing the necessities like food, water, potty breaks, medication, and lots of cuddles.

Availability
I am in virtual classes at the moment, and I do photography on the side. My schedule is pretty flexible. I can sit inside with them pretty much all day if that is your pet’s routine, or we can take a fun walk by the river, or both! I will also happily send updates and cute photos of your pets while they are with me! You can rest assured that your fur babies would be treated with the same degree of care that I would give my own while they are with me.
