Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced dog walker.
I am a dedicated pet lover based in Penzance, Cornwall, close to a variety of lovely trails with different types of terrain. I can accommodate any walking preference and am happy to walk dogs individually. I can walk 2–3 small dogs from the same family, or two medium to large dogs from the same family, depending on temperament and needs. I’m very experienced in caring for other people’s dogs and have owned several dogs myself, all larger breeds. I currently rely on public transport. I’m conscientious, reliable, and treat all animals with genuine love and care. I also offer day care and occasionally boarding in the owner’s home. I no longer provide boarding in my own home

Briony also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
I am a extremely trustworthy and respectful person. I have worked within numerous caring roles over the years including child minding, elderly & end of life care and managing a day centre for disabled adults. I have always loved animals and enjoyed making a fuss of people and pets. I've frequently looked after friends dogs when they've gone away and used to regularly walk a neighbours dog as well as looking after my own Golden retriever rescue, Greek mixed breed rescue & my Rottweiler and Doberman just passed.

I have absolute faith in Briony as a doggy day-carer - ticking all the boxes that you as a dog-mum/dad/parent could want. Communicative: Briony is communicative, professional, friendly and open - she is very happy to discuss you and your 4-legged friend's needs and ensure they are met, and is always very clear in her communication. Responsible: As the proud mother to a gorgeous golden retriever and other canine companions in the past, Briony is well informed about how to take care of dogs and is fully capable of all that entails, from walks to feeding to general care - she understand the privilege and trust that comes with taking care of someone's beloved pup and treats it with the respect and effort it deserves. Committed: Briony is a great animal lover, and if money were no object, she would adopt every dog she could find, as her love of dogs is boundless. Not only does this mean that is meticulous with her care, it means that she is passionate about it and has a personal investment in ensuring any pets in her care are showered with love and affection. Being a doggy-daycarer is a labour of love for her and she spares no effort in ensuring that that love shines through when caring for dogs.
Me and Bri have been friends since primary school, she's a bubbly, kind soul with a huge passion for caring and an adventurous spirit. She is a natural with all pets and spoils her own animals rotten. She had my French bulldog puppy for a week at the start of the year and will be having her again around Christmas. I may be biased but I wholeheartedly recommend Bri as a dog walker/pet sitter 😁
Bri has looked after my 3 cats, 5 ducks, 2 dogs and 4 rabbits on many occasions now. She certainly has her hands full with all 14 animals (including some with medical needs) but she is amazing every time. She is calm, caring and patient with all the animals. She lets me know once she's there, sends me lots of updates including photos and videos and then lets me know once she's left. The animals are used to her and she quickly built bonds that have only grown especially with my dogs and eldest cat who are absolutely besotted with her! The animals all enjoy her calm and loving manner. It puts my mind at ease knowing that the animals are in great care and there's nobody I'd trust more. 10/10

I am flexible with the hours I can offer. I work from home and am an early riser. I am adaptable and willing to work with pet owners to stick to dogs routines.
