Animal lover for life!
Pet care experience
I’ve had pets my entire life (dogs, cats and many other assortments). I have volunteered as a foster parent for cats and dogs for over 20 years. This has provided me many opportunities to become familiar with all types of needs for animals from grooming to medical (meds, IV’s, emergency care, etc.) and the most important one...LOVE! I love to play, pet, cuddle and just spend time with animals. What are some of the things we do while with your pet? A lot depends on the temperament of your pet but could include: - walks up to 3x a day (although our record is 7!!!) - baths - hiking - fetch - running - games - beaches - playdates - dog parks - brushing - massages - treats - cuddling - love - dog friendly restaurants - drive-in movies - strawberry picking - cross country skiing in winter - play dates - outdoor sports games Really your pet just becomes a part of the family! Want us to do something special with your pet? Just let us know! A couple bonus perks: - super flexible scheduling - completely organic treats and products My schedule is very flexible and I’m happy to work out what is best for you and your pet. It really is what’s best for the pet(s) routine to keep everything as consistent as possible for them. When we sit and meet we will go through what is best for your pet. Sometimes for older pets it’s a heating pad to lay on and massages. For the younger ones it’s a lot of stimulation both mentally and physically.
Reviews
Amazing! My pups loved her and she set me at ease with all the updates on the fun they were having.
Thank you so much for staying longer to reassure why dog while strangers were in the house! You’re the best!
Brenna is the best. She’s so caring and considerate to my pup, and she always has the best time. I really appreciate all her attention to the little things, and looking out for my little buddy. (Carrying her out of the house after I had my new roof installed, making sure she has enough water and her bowl is clean, checking in with me to ask questions and share videos. Highly recommend!
Brenna is amazing. Her flexibility for things that came up during our time away was amazing and she always had our dog's best interest in mind. On top of all of that, my dog loves her which is saying something because she only likes a few people. Just an amazing person to care for your pet when you're away.

Safety, trust & environment
First and foremost I get to know you and your pets. As each pet is unique these each have unique needs to keep them safe. For example do they lunge on leash? Well we don’t cross any busy streets and they need to sit before we get to a street to check for traffic I have a lot more tricks I’ve learned over the years that I’m happy to share for your pet.
Information Brenna B. would like to know about your pet
I’d love to know everything about your animal! What makes them unique and your best friend? Do they cuddle all day? Love to eat fresh baked chicken? Run for hours? I truly believe every pet is special and unique and love getting to know them! I do require a meet and greet before working with an animal. I want to make sure they know us BEFORE working with them. Unfortunately this does mean I don’t do last minute bookings as we need to meet at least a day before. Please contact me for details on this. The general format is to meet and gets lots of smells in - for the pets! They have free range to make them feel comfortable and we follow their lead. When they’ve finished their smells after a bit we will sit down and I have a questionnaire I’ll ask you about everything from medical history to feeding styles. When your animal feels comfortable whether that is 5 minutes or 60 minutes. This whole process usually takes at least 30 minute but more like 60-90 minutes. There’s no charge for this as it’s to make sure we’re all a good fit and everyone feels confident going into the experience. The reward is when we work with your animal everyone already knows each other!
A typical day
This is Minnesota so our typical day varies a lot depending if it’s 30 below or 100+ degrees out! However first and foremost is their safety and needs no matter what the weather is.

Availability
I work from home so I have a very flexible schedule. However my service area is 2 miles and due to the rising gas prices I now am really strict about this. If you’re in myservice area - no issue! I appreciate all the requests outside of my service area. If you still want to book what I have done is just add the gas mileage on to your booking. We can talk about this more if you want details. For example if you’re 2 miles out of my service area I would charge you the extra 2 miles per government fuel price which for 2022 is .59 (58.50) so the total additional charge would be: $2.36 per visit. My apologies in advance for any trouble this may cause.
