Safety, trust & environment

I can board small and medium dogs who do well with other dogs in the home. We can also come to you as we have many times. Just be sure to point out your pooch’s favorite park! If you forget, my kiddo makes sure she spots every single one to and from sits. 😂 I enjoy taking morning walks to a coffee shop which most pups enjoy (as they typically receive a complimentary treat). Portland is pretty great that way! We have a lot of fun adventuring, going to dog parks and on hikes or snuggling and playing with toys for indoor play! On a more serious note, I have a very expansive history with herbalism, natural health and pet psychology and reading body language and behaviors. I’ve frequently gotten to the bottom of minor health and behavioral issues just by being present with a pet as much as possible. I usually tell pet owners about any observations I’m making and often can offer workable solutions to pet owning challenges. On an artistic note, I enjoy creating pet portraits and I have a fun Canon 8ti. If you’re interested in portraits, please let me know at our meet & greet!

Information Brittany D. would like to know about your pet

If your dog has any health or behavioral challenges or special quirks related to the breed, just let me know. As I said previously, I grew up with Danes (and Dachshunds), so I’m very comfortable walking and gently training to walk all sizes. I’m very conscious to teach a pup who’s unfamiliar with walking in a safe environment and mindful to keep older pups in less stressful/stimulating areas. If a dog has an aversion to other dogs or is excitable, I’m used to and can work with them too!

A typical day

I love to take dogs I watch to dog parks, for walks along the river, on hikes and several parks and gardens in my area in the SW. I’ll accommodate whatever your dog enjoys most whether it’s fetch, tug-o-war, learning tricks in signed language or gentle scratches and belly rubs.

Pet care experience

I’ve been doing this a very long time and have enjoyed every experience. ☺️ I’ve started a doctoral program and will only be booking occasional walks for the foreseeable future. Thank you to everyone who has trusted me with your fur babies! Maybe the next time I see them (or you), you will be receiving some Naprapathic TLC. 🙏🏻

Thankyou Brittany! We were very happy with your care and concern for Samson. He was in great shape when we got back from our trip, and we’d be happy to have you come back again next time we need help!

Brittany did an amazing job with our 75 lbs German shepherd. Will definitely work with her again!

Brittany helped me out of a bind last minute. She walked Minnie for 3 weeks and was reliable and easy to work with. Highly recommended.
