who else to love your furry baby
Pet care experience
From being raised alongside dachshunds and husky's to dog sitting for family members pups (Jack Russells, Chihuahuas, Boxers, Pitbulls, Rottweilers) of all sizes I am very knowledgeable when it comes to all kind of breeds. Also very good with stubborn breeds and elderly dogs. I have also worked in a pet store so I am more than comfortable with puppies and helping with training and potty training. I have a huge yard suited for any size dog, with over 6 ft tall wooden fences. I am an online Grad Student, so am very flexible with time and distance needed to travel to get to you.
Reviews
I cannot say enough great things about Briana and the care she gave our two pugs over the Thanksgiving holiday. This was the first time using her and she exceeded our expectations. Briana stayed overnight at our home because we have an elderly pug who can no longer do stairs or get up and down on furniture. When we met for the first time, our dogs immediately to a liking to her, and her experience and confidence were very reassuring. Two days before we left, our older pug came down with a UTI, which we shocked by and very concerned. She was given three different medications to knock out the infection. We considered bringing her with us, but after discussing this with Briana, she reassured us that she had dealt with health issues and administering medication with many pets. While we were gone, she managed to keep them on their routine, followed medication dosages, gave them plenty of attention, and provided special care to our older dog. She sent messages about how they were behaving and provided lots of pictures to show us how well they were doing. I was so relieved! I am very picky when it comes to my dogs, and Briana was the best sitter we have ever had. She was thorough, punctual, communicative, patient and very sweet with both my girls. I cannot recommend her more, and we will definitely be calling on her again in the near future.
Great dog walker very kind
Briana was great and made everything very easy. She took good care of my dog and he loved his time with her and her dog. Highly recommend!
Briana is a great sitter, who took care of our boys in a very conscientious and caring manner! She managed all three of our cats and our GSD and all their needs over the span of a week. She provided daily reports and photos and keep us informed of all happening with them. She also kept our house clean and tidy which is a feat in and of itself with 4 pets! In short, Brianna is an excellent pet sitter who we would trust without reservation to care for our fur babies again in the future!

Pets are our babies... I will always make sure that your baby is safe in my hands. They have free roam in my house and I love cuddles so am more than happy to share my space. I will always ensure that your pet is on a leash when on walks. I have a very large yard with high fences for any size breed (but especially high energy dogs).I simply wish to love your pups and keep them safe and happy.
Home
Information Briana R. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know any of your fur babies triggers, any allergies? or medical needs to be aware of. Are they reactive to other dogs? Humans? Have any food intolerances. Prey drive? etc. Also what is their average day like at home, to mimic this as much as possible and make the transition as easy for them as can be.
A typical day
Every pet is different, if they are nappers than they can enjoy all the blankets and cuddles in bed. If they're a more high energy pup than be sure that we are getting in our 10,000 steps a day haha. I am sure to always keep toys around, have spare memory foam beds throughout my home, and have lots of puzzles to mentally stimulate them throughout the day. They will always have access to water and will have open roam of the backyard.

Because I am taking school online (one class 9pm Thursdays) my schedule is super open to all your pup & kitties needs. I am in no rush, and have no problem spending all the time needed to help your fur babies stretch their legs and receive some mental stimulation to keep them entertained, happy and most importantly healthy.
