Highlights
Pet care experience
Cuddles, chaos, and belly rubs 🐾
Dog owner and lifelong dog lover here! I’ve grown up with dogs and currently have a pup of my own — her name is Pumpkin, and she’s my whole heart! She loves to run outside, play, and snuggle every night. I truly believe pets are like little angels sent to help us navigate this crazy world. Every dog deserves to be met with kindness, patience, and joy — that’s the energy I bring to every stay. I’m not afraid to get on the floor and play, go for long walks, or keep them mentally engaged with enrichment and a few fun tricks. A mentally and physically challenged dog is a happy (and tired!) one! I also understand that each dog has their own personality and needs. My goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away — and to make sure you can truly relax knowing they’re in good hands.

Ratings and reviews
Brooke and Pumpkin are great! My dog always has a great time there. Brooke sends updates frequently and is very responsive. She is also very flexible with time! I could not recommend her enough!
Brooke is always amazing! Millie has so much fun with her dog Pumpkin everytime we leave her with Brooke and always comes home happy.
Would definitely recommend going through Brooke and am going to book again! She sent pictures and lots of updates!
Always a great stay for Birdie when she is with Brooke and Pumpkin!
Brooke is very sweet and handled our dog, Maya, really well. Her dog, Pumpkin, is a really cute dog. Gets along with everyone. If you want your dog to be showered with love and care, please book pet sitting with Brooke.
Our dog loved Pumpkin and Brooke so much! Brooke was so wonderful, and provided constant updates and pictures. We did a meet and greet and it was so obvious how loved Pumpkin was, and how well Brooke took her of her own dog. That same love and care was clearly extended to our dog. We love Brooke and can't wait to book again!

Schedule
I work full time at a fitness studio, so I’m out and about during the day, but I’m never gone for more than 8 hours. My workday sometimes starts as early as 4 AM — but that just gives me more time in the afternoons for extra playtime and walks, and maybe an extra snack or two 😄 I prefer evening drop-offs — it gives your dog a little extra time to settle into a new environment and get to know me and Pumpkin better. My goal is to make sure your dog is comfortable and happy while they’re with me, and I’ve found this really helps them adjust. That said, I’m happy to chat if another time works better for you and your pup, but I do ask that you be considerate of my schedule and your dog’s adjustment needs. My calendar tends to fill up quickly, so I accept bookings on a first-come, first-served basis. Once you confirm on your end, your spot is locked in — until then, my calendar is open to others. I encourage confirming early and scheduling our meet-and-greet quickly if you’re a first-time client. I promise we’ll have plenty of fun — walks, playtime, snuggles, and maybe even learn a new trick or two along the way!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I take every precaution to make sure their time with us is fun, stress-free, and secure. We go on multiple walks a day along a beautiful shaded trail near my home. Let me know if your pup likes the park — Pumpkin is very social, and we love visiting the nearby dog park weekly. If you’re okay with this, we might even go on a little field trip! 🐶 I also make sure all introductions are slow and positive so every dog feels comfortable. Pumpkin does a great job of welcoming new friends to our home and gets along with dogs of all sizes and breeds, so if your dog is nervous or anxious, I’m confident she’ll help them come out of their shell! Please remember to provide a working leash and harness so I can feel confident that we won’t have any escapee artists on our hands 😝 For the safety of all dogs in my home, I ask that your dog is fully crate trained and that you provide a crate during the stay. This gives your dog a safe space in a new environment, helps them feel secure, sets boundaries when needed, and keeps everyone’s sanity intact 😄 It also gives me peace of mind knowing nothing can happen while I’m away — you wouldn’t leave a baby unattended at home, and I don’t intend to leave your fur baby that way either. After taking some time to see how your dog settles in, I may choose not to use the crate, but that will only happen once I’m confident they’re comfortable and trusting in their new environment. Thank you for understanding! To keep everyone healthy and safe, I also require that all dogs staying with me are up to date on vaccinations and current on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention — Pumpkin’s always up to date, too! It’s the best way to make sure every pup has a fun and worry-free stay (and no uninvited flea guests 😆) Above all, I’m committed to building trust with both you and your pup. I take the time to get to know their personality, needs, and preferences so they feel happy, confident, and loved while staying with me.

A typical day
Pumpkin and I go on 3–4 walks a day — one longer adventure and a few shorter strolls to stretch our legs. Outside of walks, she mostly goes with the flow. When we have a young pup with us, there might be more playtime, while an older pup might just chill with us on the couch. They usually keep themselves entertained, but I’m always monitoring playtime to make sure everything’s going smoothly. If I get in on the fun, it’s all about fetch, tug, keep-away, or just rolling around and being silly. We also sometimes have impromptu dance parties when I play music — Pumpkin gets so excited watching me dance, it’s impossible not to smile! When the weather’s nice, we’ll spend time sunbathing on the patio or just hanging out enjoying the breeze. So don’t be surprised if your dog comes home with a little tan and a big smile 😎🐾
