Pet care experience

I love pets of all sizes and ages!

I have been a in-home pet sitter for the past six years for a medium size dog who had special needs as a puppy. I also am a pet photographer and have done pet portraits and holiday cards! I recently lost my beloved dog Zoey, who I had for over 12 years. I love dogs deeply, and welcome them into my home.

She was incredible! My puppy is high energy, frustrated greeter who takes medication. Brigitte was not only flexible, but calm, kind and I felt totally comfortable leaving my puppy with her. Highly reccomend.

Brigette was fantastic. She’s super responsive, even for a last minute request, and was an absolute lifesaver for us. She was great with our dog and we’re looking forward to working with her in the future!!

I am writing this memo on behalf of Brigette Cruz as a supplement to her application as a pet caregiver in your organization. I have known Brigette for some time now and have had the privilege to work with her in the Office of Undergraduate Admission here at Hofstra University. Brigette is very capable of managing many diverse situations, able to lead others to perform to their best ability, and is considerate towards everyone. From an ethical and work perspective, Brigette's skills are second to none. As a member of the Admissions team, Brigette has handled her responsibilities towards her students with courtesy and professionalism. Brigette is a very personal individual and is kind and giving to all those around her. Brigette has an innate sensitivity for the people and environment around her this is especially true in her love for animals. I have seen first hand her interaction here in the office with our pet therapy dog Mack, as well as her own adorable pet dog Zoe, the love and devotion she shows Zoe is exemplary. I endorse Brigette's professional goal as a pet caregiver and I am confident that she possesses the love, professionalism and dedication to achieve this. I believe she will stand out as a particularly loving, responsible and conscientious caregiver who will enhance your program greatly. I am pleased to recommend Brigette Cruz to your organization without reservation. Please feel free to contact me with any further information needed by you. I may be reached at 516-463-4240.
