Pet care experience

56 Pawsitive reviews🐾🐶🐱🐕🐈‍⬛🦴

I have been providing dog sitting services since 2014 and have been a member of Rover since 2019, accumulating over 10 years of experience in caring for pets. I have a deep passion for dogs and enjoy spending time with them, but rest assured, I’m more than happy to care for your cat or cats as well. Work Schedule and Availability: Please review my work schedule to ensure it aligns with your needs. I work a standard 40-hour week, Monday through Friday, from 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM in Minden. I live in South Carson City. For Lake Tahoe Residents: If you’re located in the Lake Tahoe area, I am available for dog sitting only from Friday evening to Sunday evening. However, if your request falls during a holiday when I’m not working, I may be able to adjust. Please keep this in mind. For Reno Residents: I apologize, but I am unable to offer dog or cat sitting services for pets located above the South Meadows Parkway exit. I prefer not to be too far from your pets during my workday. However, if you live near or below the South Meadows Parkway exit, please reach out, and we can discuss availability. For those above the South Meadows Parkway exit, I am only available for weekend bookings, Friday evening to Sunday evening. If you request services during a holiday when I may be off work, I might be able to make an exception. Pet Care Commitment: Your pet’s well being is my top priority, and I promise they will receive plenty of love and attention while in my care. I will provide regular updates, including both the positive and any concerns, such as if your pet gets into something they shouldn’t or experiences any health issues. I understand how important it is to stay informed about your pet’s condition while you are away. Pet Sitting Approach: While I may look young (I’m often told I appear 16), I assure you I am responsible and mature. I’m not into wild parties my focus is entirely on caring for your pets. When pet sitting in your home, I typically enjoy reading, listening to music, doing puzzles, and, of course, spending quality time with your pets. I make sure to build a relationship with your pet, giving them the time and space they need to feel comfortable with me. I avoid rushing any interactions and take care to learn if there are any sensitive areas to avoid when petting your animal. I am attentive to any medical needs or dietary restrictions and will follow your instructions carefully. If your pet has any special needs whether it’s medication, dietary restrictions, or behavioral issues. I will make sure to accommodate them fully. If you need help with tasks such as picking up mail or taking out the trash, that’s no problem at all. Rates: My rates are flexible, and I am happy to work with you to find a fair arrangement based on your needs. Please take into account my experience, reviews, time, travel expenses, and references when considering my services. Questions and References: Feel free to ask me anything whether it's about my experience or specific concerns you have regarding your pet’s care. If you'd like references from previous clients, I’d be more than happy to provide them. Winter Availability: Please note that I do not offer pet sitting services during the winter unless you are local to Carson City. I will also consider areas in Minden, Genoa, and Gardnerville, depending on location. Thank you for considering me as your pet caretaker. I look forward to speaking with you and providing the best care for your pet! Your pets deserve the best, and I’m here to make sure they get it. I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

My dog was always treated with the utmost care and affection, allowed on the couch and my bed, and was truly spoiled. I made it a priority to ensure she felt loved and safe in her environment. I believe that every pet deserves happiness, and I will extend the same level of love and attention to your dog or cat as if they were my own. Their well being and comfort will always be my top priority.

Amazing dog sitter. We are very happy with the care she gave. She updated us with pictures and texts throughout. We have used her before and will definitely use her in the future for dog sitting.

We are so pleased with our pet sitter! She is reliable, caring, and gives our cat and dog so much love and attention while we are away. We always receive regular updates and cute photos, which gives us peace of mind knowing our pets are always in great hands. We come home to happy, relaxed pets and a clean home. We HIGHLY recommend Brittany to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter. She is simply the best.

I couldn’t be happier with the care Jolene received! Brittany made her feel so comfortable and safe while I was away. Jolene can be a bit timid, especially with new people, but Brittany was so patient and gentle with her. I received regular updates and sweet photos, which gave me total peace of mind. I’m so grateful for the thoughtful, reliable care and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Highly recommend!

Brittany was available on short notice and we felt so lucky to have found her. We were anxious as it was the first time leaving Ollie, Milo & Yogi with someone other than a family member. She offered to come by ahead of our trip to meet our pups and to help put our minds at ease. She provided updates often and sent us videos and photos. She treated our fur babies like they were her own and we could tell they felt very loved and secure. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and can confidently recommend her services. Thank you so much Brittany ❤️🐾

Brittany was amazing! I am so glad we found her. We will never use anyone else to watch our house and our pups! She sent us pictures throughout the day and made sure their water was full when we got home. She stayed in contact with us and when we saw the pictures, we knew our pups felt right at home with her too.

Schedule

I ensure my calendar is always up to date and available for your convenience. Please feel free to ask any questions. I will respond promptly. If I'm not already booked, I will gladly make time for your pets. :) Please feel free to ask about availability, as there may be days marked as unavailable for personal time or pre existing plans, and I might be able to still help out. Just reach out! Sometimes, I take a day off after dog sitting to catch up on my laundry or need a day to myself.

Does your pet have any food allergies? Are they comfortable around other dogs and cats? Are there any areas of their body that are sensitive due to past trauma or abuse? How do they behave around other dogs, particularly during walks? Are they comfortable with children? Do they display any food aggression? Are there any foods they are not allowed to consume? If your pet is crated during the day, while I am at work? Does your pet have any specific allergies? All breeds and ages are welcome.
