Pet care experience

My friendly lab/greyhound mix, Maggie and I love making friends. This is strictly for fun for us. We love going to the dog beach, parks, bicycle rides, and playing sports. We take adventures at least twice a week and would be happy to accommodate one more! I would like to do a meet and greet beforehand if your schedule permits. As you can tell from our profile, we love taking pictures and will send you many plus videos if you would like while you're suffering the time away. I ask that your furry friend is dog friendly, vaccinated, trained, and clean. Maggie is spayed and all up to date on her vaccinations. I have lots of experience with dog training and have been in situations where humans need to intervene to calm the environment so I am very comfortable with all breeds, I have some dog training courses in my background. I did some job shadowing at a Veterinary Clinic in Alabama as this was my major for a brief period. Working with dogs is my dream but to pay the bills I work from home on the computer all days with exception to the weekends, I am gone around 6 hours on weekend days only. I have a large sun room I watch the dogs from if I am not outside with them, they are let in after an hour at the most to cool down and re-hydrate. Your dog will get plenty of exercise with Maggie so I ensure they take plenty of breaks to be cautious of over heating. I used to have a pit bull before Maggie who was also very friendly and loved making friends. I keep a safe environment with all food and chemicals kept out of reach. Maggie is not food aggressive but I separate at feeding time as a precaution. Our typical day is breakfast around 8-9 am, play and potty outside with breaks 9-11 am, nap time and cool off 12-2 pm, afternoon activity if you permit 5-7 pm (usually walking to local park, going to dog park, bike ride, or beach swim), dinner 7-8 pm, then potty and night time play 9-10 pm. Sometimes I will give a treat before bed with peanut butter and kong if you permit, usually winds them down for full night rest. I sleep with my door open and have two dog beds to give our house guest the option of jumping in my bed with us, sleeping in one of the dog beds, or sleeping on the cool tile floor. They have access to walk into the kitchen anytime to just stretch legs or get water. *only able to watch one dog at a time unless dogs from same client *services offered- in your home visits including walks (able to do up to 2 per day between 8 am-10 am and 5 pm-11 pm) and overnight stays in my home *able to stay in your home if Maggie is

I would HIGHLY recommend Brittney. This was my first time leaving my fur baby with someone outside of family and I cannot thank her enough for making the experience so great. She was absolutely fantastic and eased my nerves immediately. I recieved pictures and videos everyday and was kept in the loop in regards to his daily activities. She was very easy to reach and was extremely patient and kind. Marshall looked very happy in all the pictures/videos and looked like he was having so much fun! Brittney and her beautiful pup Maggie were fantastic hosts to Marshall and immediately made him apart of their family. He will most definitely be back to stay with them again! :)

Highly recommend Brittany!!! Our Sophie had a great time and we loved receiving pictures of her and Maggie playing and being loved on! When looking for a sitter I wanted to make sure that Sophie would have the chance to be active since she typically misses us when we are away. Brittany took her for a lot of walks, to the park, and tons of play time in the backyard. Sophie came home happy and exercised! This was our first Rover experience and I think it will be difficult to top the level of service Brittany provided. She went out of her way to pick up and drop off Sophie due to our travel schedule and she kept us informed by sending multiple messages and pictures. We would definitely use Brittany again and will recommend her to our family and friends!

My high-speed girl is slow to warm up to people, but once she trusts you, you loves you. She trusts Brittney, after a really great visit with her and her girl Maggie, which puts Britt in an elite club. Maggie is the sweetest pal, and the pictures and videos that Brittney sent were adorable and reassuring that Ripley was in the best place possible that wasn't home. Brittney herself is just a lovely person. Great experience!

Information Brittney G. would like to know about your pet

What can we do to make your dog feel comfortable? Are there any special games they like or spots they like to be rubbed? Are there any bad habits your dog has? Chewing socks, shoes, toilet paper? Do they need to be crated when left? Do they get along with other dogs? Are their vaccinations up to date and are they spayed/neutered? Are they house trained? Can they be left alone for up to 6 hours? Have they recently been bathed?

A typical day

We will go on walks around the neighborhood and to dog parks if you allow. We will play fetch and tug of war in the house when weather does not permit us to play outside. We will also snuggle and have back rubs when relaxing on the couch. When the Florida heat is really out of hand we like to play with the water hose or take a dip in the beach.
