I’m currently on sabbatical, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to devote to pet care. I’m available for weekday and weekend walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting, including daytime, evening, and overnight care. I can often accommodate last-minute requests as well.

About Briana W.

Dog skills

20 years of experience
Oral medication administration
Senior dog experience
Can provide daily exercise

Safety, trust & environment

I provide care in your home, where your pet can remain comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, potty breaks, litter-box care, and home security. During walks and visits, I prioritize safe leash handling, secure doors and gates, and awareness of other animals and surroundings. I will also provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.

Information Briana W. would like to know about your pet

Please share your pet’s normal routine, personality, feeding schedule, favorite activities, health needs, and any fears, triggers, or behavioral concerns. For dogs, I’d also like to know about their leash habits and reactions to people and other animals. Emergency contacts, veterinary information, home-access instructions, and any household expectations are also helpful.

A typical day

Each visit will be tailored to your pet’s usual routine, personality, and energy level. Depending on their preferences, our time may include walks, playtime, enrichment activities, meals, potty breaks, litter-box care, cuddles, or quiet companionship. I’m equally happy keeping an energetic dog active or giving a shy cat the patience and space needed to feel comfortable.

Pet care experience

As the current pet parent of two spirited cats, Duke and Louie, I understand firsthand how important it is to find the right person to care for your pets. They are family, and choosing someone trustworthy, attentive, and dependable can make all the difference when you are away. My experience includes caring for my own pets, two cats and, previously, an energetic dog, as well as caring for the pets of friends and family for extended periods. This has included dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight stays. I have cared for pets at a variety of life stages, from young, high-energy animals to seniors who benefit from a slower pace and extra attention. I am especially patient with pets that are shy, anxious, cautious, or simply need more time to become comfortable with someone new. I never force interaction; instead, I pay close attention to body language, respect boundaries, and allow trust to build at each pet’s pace. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and commitment to maintaining your pet’s normal routine. I carefully follow instructions regarding feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, litter-box care, and household routines. I am dependable, respectful of your home, and committed to providing clear communication and regular photo updates so you can feel confident that your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

Briana has been amazing with my poodle, Rainey. Rainey loves her, and she's not the easiest customer. She's got cautious queen energy and likes things a very specific way. Rainey loves a good hike, but she's equally committed to her naps. Briana struck that balance perfectly by taking her on adventures at the Eno, keeping her entertained with puzzle toys, and making sure she got plenty of cuddle time and rest. It's clear she genuinely cares about every pet she watches, and I always felt completely at ease leaving Rainey with her.
