Sandy Hill pet specialist 😻🐶🐰
Pet care experience
Important update: I will be relocating to the West End (Greenbank area) in August 2024. I’m happy to retain my downtown clients but will need a bit of time to reshuffle & reorganize my business schedule & logistics. Plz don’t be shy to still contact me after my move. I don’t mind driving to my loyal clients 😊 I specialize in small & medium sized dogs (my 2 dogs get along best with them) and kitties! I can occasionally accept a gentle giant if they are calm & don’t bark or play too aggressively. Preferably your dog is used to or unreactive to cats. I prefer my little guys not to be chased or terrorized all day/night long 😅 Cats: my kitties seem to be fine with a new cat around. They may hiss at each other for a day or two but eventually everyone calms down & makes friends. About me: I got my first cat at 3 years old. Grew up in the country in a farm house raising kittens. We had several family dogs over the years as well. I’ve personally been a dog owner for 8 years and cat mom for over 30 years. Pets have always been in my life. I’m experienced with giving medications and giving lots of love & exercise. I would say they are among my greatest loves in life. I don’t have any children, so all my maternal energy goes to pets 🐾 I’m naturally very loving, caring & nurturing and have a lot of patience. Keep in mind that I have multiple jobs on the go at any given time. I usually have 1 dog or cat boarding, 1 for doggy daycare, a few dogs we take on group walks, and multiple drop-in visits to do to homes every day. (My schedule always varies.) So it’s best if your dog enjoys being with multiple other dogs, enjoys group walks & park visits, and does well in the car- as we like to drive to the bigger dog parks.
Reviews
I have used Brianna many times to check in on my kitties when I’m away, even if it’s just for a couple of days. It’s comforting to know that she is there to play with them, give them love and attention, and of course wet food, all of which they love!
Brianna P was great. She is a gem and our cats loved having her come around. Will definitely reach out again. Thanks Brianna.
Brianna exceeded my expectations, especially since it was my first time utilizing this service. Her ability to accommodate a very short notice booking was impressive. Throughout her visits, it was evident that Tiki received ample attention and genuinely enjoyed Brianna's company. She consistently arrived at the agreed-upon times and often stayed longer than scheduled. Moreover, during our initial consultation, Brianna was both informative and attentive. During my next trip away from home, I will definitely be reaching out to Brianna to see if she's available.
Brianna was very kind and flexible with the times. She sent pictures of my dog in the park, I felt very confident to leave her with Brianna. If I go back to Ottawa I will go back with her.

Home
Information Brianna P. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know any special needs, allergies, medications, if your dog is allowed people food, any treats to avoid etc. Also if they are good to interact with multiple other dogs at the dog park. If they are staying with me for any extended amount of time they also need to be comfortable with cats. If possible please also have them tagged (with phone number & address) if they are not microchipped. Please leave an emergency contact with me in case I cannot reach you.
A typical day
We do an early morning shorter walk, followed by an hour lunch time walk, and usually spend the evenings at the dog park (Riverrain or Stanley.) We also do a shorter before bedtime walk. In between the doggies are usually tuckered out and sleep- but sometimes we can do some playtime at home as well. Please feel free to let me know how much exercise they need per day, their favourite activities, if they are okay at off leash parks, if they like to swim etc.
