Professional Pet & House Sitting

I am a dependable, responsible animal lover with over 20 years of experience caring for pets. I offer boarding for cat-friendly dogs, house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking. In the past, I have worked in vet offices and an off-leash dog hiking company. In addition to my professional experience with dogs, I have rescued and trained dogs with severe separation anxiety and understand how important it is to provide a calm, patient, and consistent environment while you're away. I welcome dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. Please reach out if you have any questions or would like to discuss your pet's specific needs.

I hired Brigitta to house sit for a weekend and care for my cats and dog. She had a connection with my dog right away when she came over to meet us. She is a warm pet sitter and clear communicator. I would hire her again.

Pocket loves walking with Brigitte (and Fig!), I will continue to have Brigitte take her on walks and look after her when I am out of town! Thank you!

Brigitte was fantastic with our dog, Luna. When we got home we could tell Luna was well-taken care of and happy. Brigitte was sure to send us several photos of Luna while we were away and gave us regular updates. Brigitte is also a very courteous house guest. We are excited to have found such a great dog sitter in Brigitte and will ask her to watch Luna again in the future.

Our dog and cat had a great time with Brigitte! She is great with animals and our pets liked her immediately. She communicated with us regularly and left our house in great shape. Thanks!

Brigitte was an absolute blessing to our family as we were in need of a long stay sitter for our Great Dane puppy. She was so kind and loving to our pup and was very easy to work with as we made arrangements. She gave our dog ample daily exercise, communicated with us daily throughout the stay, and managed our pup very well. Also, her dog is super sweet and we felt very confident that our dog would have a fun playmate. I would definitely recommend Brigitte to anyone and we plan to return to her again in the future. Thanks!

Schedule

As a house and dog sitter, I wake up early and can take your dog for a morning adventure before heading to class. I am typically at school for 3-5 hours a day during the week and home full time on weekends. If your pet cannot be left alone, I may be able to stay with your pet full time and do my work from home.

Safety, trust & environment

As a pet sitter, safety is my number one priority. Whether it's in your home or out on the trails, I will be aware of your dogs behavior and body language. Please let me know ahead of time if your dog is afraid or reactive towards other dogs, cars, children, etc.. so that I can minimize any interactions that might make them uncomfortable.
