Pet care experience
My mantra: Pets rule! I am surrounded by animals and animal related stuff all day. I worked at a vet hospital for 10yrs (running the front desk and doing minor tech assistance in surgery), I had my own (unofficial) pet-sitting business in Seattle and I work for a pet insurance company currently. I will treat all animals like my own, I have no fear of dog fur being on EVERYTHING and I will always put your furry loved ones at the top of my priority list! My schedule is flexible and whatever your friend needs, I will do my very best to provide it! I have two pups of my own, one who is almost 6 and another who is 2 and very energetic! I love and appreciate all breeds and ages and am confident I can provide the best care for them all. :)
Reviews
Briana was able to help us with last minute care for our pup. She responded quickly and was very helpful!
We could not have been happier with Bri! We have an anxious German Shepherd dog who did not do well at a boarding facility so we knew finding the right person to stay in our home with him while we traveled for a week would be best. We felt very comfortable when we met Bri at our home. She clearly had lots of experience with many different dogs and our furry guy took to her immediately. Bri took great care of our house while we were away. She sent us photos and updates of our anxious boy who seemed very happy with her! We cannot thank her enough, and would highly recommend her services to anyone!
Briana was fantastic! We were nervous as we had not left our dogs with anybody in quite some time and one of our dogs is scared of new people. We knew that she would be nervous being with a sitter, but that was an understatement - she was absolutely terrified. But Briana was patient with her and was able to get her feeling comfortable after a few days. Briana communicated everything with us and sent us pictures throughout our trip. We felt so much more comfortable knowing they were in her care. She did a great job with both of our dogs! We are so thankful for the care she provided while we were away.
Bri is awesome! She came to meet my dog before the first requested walk date because he sometimes is nervous with strangers. She made sure to take the introduction at his pace to help him feel comfortable. He almost gave her a kiss, so clearly she won him over! On the day of the first walk, she arrived timely, was patient and kind with him, and sent pictures along the way! Bri loves her clients as much as their own people do and that’s SO important. I had a lot of anxiety leaving my dog alone all day for the first time and Bri made all the feelings quickly subside and now I know for sure that my dog actually doesn’t mind being home alone and he isn’t scared or sad, and he isn’t scared of kind strangers! Big day for my boy!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
We don’t have a fenced yard and use a supervised long lead for outside/potty time. Not even my own dogs are unleashed. They will still get plenty of exercise and sniffing opportunities!
Home
Information Briana H. would like to know about your pet
I prefer to be informed of any medical issues (including mobility concerns), behavioral triggers, and general at-home routine prior to a pet coming into my home.
A typical day
We will walk wherever we can (neighborhoods, woods, city trails, etc)! I love the water so if you have four-legged water lovers, I am happy to take them down to a lake or a beach and let them have a blast! I'm open to dog parks but I would want to have a good bond with a pooch first to ensure their response to me is a good one (in case of a snafu with any other dogs).
