Pet care is at the core of my daily and weekly routine. I dedicate my days to walking, running, and taking care of animals, ensuring they get the exercise, attention, and care they need. My mornings usually start with walking and feeding the dogs in my care, followed by runs or extended walks for those with higher energy levels. Throughout the day, I maintain a consistent schedule for feeding, playtime, and any special needs, like administering medication or training sessions. Each week, I structure my routine around the specific needs of each pet, whether it’s incorporating more outdoor activities for younger, energetic dogs or providing gentle care and companionship for senior pets. This balance allows me to give individualized attention to each animal while ensuring they feel comfortable and well cared for. My entire day revolves around ensuring pets are happy, healthy, and thriving.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether caring for pets in my home or my client’s home, I provide a personalized approach based on their individual needs. In my home, pets enjoy a spacious, open-floor-plan environment where they can move freely and comfortably. I maintain a structured routine that includes regular walks, feeding times, playtime, and quiet periods for rest. With my experience in training puppies and senior care, I’m attentive to any specific needs, such as administering medication, managing mobility issues, or focusing on behavioral training. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I aim to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I follow their established feeding, exercise, and medication schedules, ensuring the pet remains comfortable in their familiar environment. I also keep open communication with the owner, sending regular updates and photos to provide peace of mind. Regardless of the location, I prioritize creating a stress-free, loving environment where the pet feels safe and cared for at all times.

Information Briana G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or accommodations. I only board/daycare house/potty trained dogs. If your dog is not friendly with other dogs, I can only offer drop in services and house sitting. I have a dog of my own who I must consider first :)

A typical day

With the pets I watch, I love incorporating a mix of fun and engaging activities tailored to their energy levels and interests. Living by a park gives me the perfect opportunity to take dogs on long walks or runs, allowing them to explore new scents and enjoy the outdoors. For high-energy dogs, we can go for jogs or play games like fetch to burn off some of that energy. For pets that prefer a slower pace, we can take more leisurely strolls through the park, giving them time to enjoy the fresh air and stay active. Indoors, I make time for play sessions with their favorite toys or just relaxing together for cuddle time. I love bonding with pets, whether it’s through outdoor adventures or quiet moments on the couch, making sure they feel happy and comfortable.

Pet care experience

I’M BACK IN THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY🤗 About me: For the past 12 years, I’ve been deeply involved in fostering, volunteering, boarding and walking, which has allowed me to work with dogs of all ages, breeds, and needs. I started providing dog walking and boarding services at 20 years old, and have since gained a wealth of experience in handling different temperaments and behavioral challenges. My passion since I was a kid is to work with animals and one day open my own non-profit shelter. Since I graduated university, I aim to focus on growing my services and showing the community that I am the best for your pets needs. About my experience: l administer medications: oral medications, injections, applying topical treatments, etc. I also have specialized training in working with puppies. For example: recall and obedience training (not potty training). I have extensive experience with senior dogs, who often require extra care, patience, and understanding. I’m attentive to their needs, mobility issues or health concerns. I will make sure they feel safe and comfortable at all times. My home is their home away from home. There is plenty of room to explore, play, or relax without feeling confined. My home is an stress-free, open environment where your pets can feel at ease while you’re away. (I have a dog of my own, a beagle mix breed. He’s extremely friendly and loves making new friends. If your dog is not dog friendly, I recommend booking me for drop in visits or house sitting!)

Briana is fantastic. We came home to a happy pup and clean house. She’s responsive and sends us photos regularly. She is caring and loving — she put our anxious senior at ease. Couldn’t ask for anything more!
