Pet care is built into my daily routine. I have two pups and a few exotic animals, so every morning and evening I make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and safe while I’m at school. When I get home, I take my dogs on walks, play memory games with them, and practice simple commands like sit, lay down, and shake. I’m not a trainer, but I like to keep them mentally and physically active. Each week, I also spend time cleaning enclosures, checking on my exotics, and making sure everyone has what they need. It’s just part of my day-to-day life

Safety, trust & environment

In my home I make sure pets are safe and comfortable. I don’t have a fenced-in yard, but I do have an in-ground lead for outside time if needed.. I also have a kennel if I ever need to separate pets, though I don’t like to use it unless it’s really necessary. My dogs are puppies and are super friendly just very vocal! They both even get along with my mom’s ankle-biting chihuahua and I foster pups occasionally so they are used to being around different personalities. I know it might sound concerning that I’m in school, but don’t let that worry you my pets are always well taken care of when I’m gone. Day to day, I focus on giving pets attention, playtime, and making sure their needs are met so they feel at home.

Information Briana E. would like to know about your pet

It’s really important for me to know about a pet ahead of time so I can make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while I’m caring for them. I like to know things like their feeding schedule, exercise needs, any health concerns, and how they get along with other pets or people. I also love learning about the little things that make them happy, like their favorite toys, treats, or cuddles, and what might stress them out. Also I would like to know if it is okay for us to socialize with other dogs such as dog parks or at my moms ( she has a fenced in yard where I like to take my dog out to because he can run freely) Knowing all of this helps me give each pet the attention, care, and love they deserve so they feel right at home even when their owner isn’t there.

A typical day

In the morning before I leave for school, I take my dogs and any pets I’m watching on a walk to get their morning wiggles out and start the day off happy. After that, they eat and settle in comfortably so everything stays safe while I’m gone. Since my dogs and the pet I’m watching might not know each other, they’ll be separated for safety, but they’ll still have toys, cozy spots, and the TV on so they feel comfortable and entertained. When I get home, I make sure to clean up any accidents, give lots of love, attention, and gentle reassurance, and then we go outside to play, stretch, and burn off energy together. I also spend time playing games, practicing simple commands, and keeping their minds engaged. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and truly cared for while their owner is away—I want them to feel loved and comfortable as if they were at home

Pet care experience

What sets me apart is that I’ve grown up always having three or four dogs at a time, so caring for animals has been part of my life from the start. I also have experience raising my own puppy, which has taught me patience, consistency, and how to keep pets busy with walks, games, and basic commands. I’ve spent time around senior dogs, so I know how important it is to slow down and focus on their comfort. On top of that, I care for a few exotic pets, which has taught me to be extra responsible with routines and special needs. I’m also a CNA, so I have experience providing care, paying attention to details, and being responsible for others’ well-being. Overall, I’m reliable, attentive, and make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away.

Again, Briana was great with Millie. My time frame kept changing around a little bit yet she remained flexible and worked with me. She sent pictures of Millie that were greatly reassuring when I was away from her.

My Millie LOVED Briana! She let us schedule a meet-and-greet with her own pups. When we first arrived, Millie was so excited that she ran to the door to go in. When I picked her up, she seemed very happy and content. She was even a bit of a naughty girl and jumped out of the car to tell Briana bye one last time!

Briana was absolutely amazing! She asked questions before confirming to make sure my dog's needs were all met. Her accommodations were next level, providing food, a kennel, and even a spare room for my dog to have his own space. She also took him to the dog park several times and sent me plenty of photos. Briana is by far the best sitter I have ever used and I guarantee she will be for you as well!
