Safety, trust & environment

All pet care would take place in your home, or in the walking neighborhoods surrounding your home, in which your pet is already familiar and comfortable. As all dog owners know, dogs often walk YOU rather than the other way around! I will let your furry friend choose the route unless you have a specified path you'd like me to take them.

Information Bri D. would like to know about your pet

Please inform me in advance if any of the following pertain to your pet to ensure the best care possible and safety for everyone: - special feeding, diet, or medication regimens - known allergies, special needs, or medical diagnoses that are relevant during care times - aggressive tendencies (i.e. food aggression, other-animal aggression, territorial tendencies around toys, food, home, etc.) - unique quirks or behaviors to be aware of - anything else you'd like me to know! I always recommend leaving me with an emergency contact for a nearby friend or family member, particularly for extended care! Written care instructions are great, either in the form of a note left at your home or in your pets' Rover profile, so I can ensure to follow all instructions thoroughly and thoughtfully.

A typical day

Your pets (or your care instructions!) take the lead on this one! I am always excited to play fetch, snuggle, play with their toys, explore walking trails, unique games your pet loves, or just be there as company for your lower-energy companions.

Reliable Buffalo Animal Lover!

Pet care experience

All my life, I've grown up in a household with pets that have always felt more like family members to me. I have experience caring for dogs and cats through feeding, walking, bathing, medication management, special needs care, play times, litter scooping, and cuddle sessions. I have direct experience with administering daily medications, both oral and injectable, from having had a diabetic dog myself. I have experience with dogs and cats throughout their full lifespan, and I recognize that each animal may be in a different stage of their life with unique requirements. I am a friendly, dependable, reliable, and consistent caretaker. Communication is one of my biggest values and by trusting me with your pet, you are also trusting me to communicate with you along the way. No amount of pictures and updates is too many, especially when it comes to our furry family members! LGBTQ+ friendly!

Bri is my #1 choice when I go out of town. She takes care of Cara, my cat, so well. She is trustworthy, takes terrific pictures, and she's the only one I have ever seen who makes my cat smile. She is spectacular. There are not enough words or complements to express my thanks and gratitude. Thank you again, Bri.

Bri does a wonderful job caring for my senior kitty. He can be shy but has always felt confident and comfortable in her care - sharing his (sometimes loud) personality and love readily with her. Greatly appreciate her photo and message updates, never leaves any doubts my fur baby is being well-cared for. Will continue to request Bri as my go to !

Leaving our fur baby in Bri’s hands when we’re away gives me such peace of mind. She really goes the extra mile to make sure our cat is happy and cared for and sends us thorough updates and lots of photos! Everything is also always clean when we come home, which I appreciate so much! Thank you, Bri!!
