Pet care experience
I've been taking care of animals for most of my life. I grew up with dogs and cats, and had hands on experience with farm animals like chickens and cows. Since then, I've adopted two dogs and a cat of my own, as well as a variety of other small pets including a turtle, snakes, a scorpion, a hamster, and fish. Professionally, I've worked as a dog bather, and I used to volunteer at my local animal rescue. I've raised and trained a puppy and helped take care of several elderly dogs and cats, as well. I've always been the go-to animal person, and I hope I'll be yours, too! For those who are immunocompromised or otherwise concerned, I am fully vaccinated against covid-19 and I have both yours and your animals' health in mind. I'm currently on medical leave from university, so I have a lot of time to dedicate to your pets. I can do part time or full time work, it all depends on your needs! For my own dogs, I have a large fenced in yard and have them crate trained. I train my animals with positive reinforcement and by respecting their boundaries. While I can't offer to have your animals in my home, I do offer other services. When performing those services I will approach your animals with the same love and respect, and I'll do everything I can to ensure their safety and your trust.
Reviews
Brooklyn did an amazing job with our 3 dogs! She was very communicative and went above and beyond with her care. She was respectful of our home and kind with our pups. We definitely will be using her services again.
Brooklyn took great care of our furbabies while we were in South America. She checked in every day with photos & left the house very tidy. The girls are looking forward to seeing her again in a few weeks.
Just excellent! Good communication while she housesit with my puppy and plenty of pics to show the snuggles he was getting.
Brooklyn was amazing! She cared for my 11 week old puppy while I needed to travel for a weekend. Puppies are a lot of work and she handled it beautifully! She provided round-the-clock care and sent plenty of updates with pictures. She also looked after my kitties and I came back to three happy animals! Thank you Brooklyn, I can’t recommend your services enough!

Skills
Information Brooklyn G. would like to know about your pet
I like to know what your dog prefers and dislikes, whether that be loud noises, other dogs, or petting in a certain place. I want to make sure that your dog is the most comfortable they can be with me!
A typical day
When I watch or walk a dog I make sure their happiness and enrichment are my priorities. If I watch a dog, I play with them for as long as they'd like and make sure we're hanging out the whole time I'm visiting. For dogs that I walk, I make sure to take different routes each time I walk them so that it's a new adventure every time.
