Available New Year's weekend!

Pet care experience

Available New Year's weekend! I was a full time pet sitter for four years. I became a dog sitter to spend the most time possible with my French bulldog, who has epilepsy. For housestitting services he will need to be able to spend the night with me. He got used to having a lot of friends around when I was doing this full time and is a pro a meeting other dogs. My goal is to maintain a calm, safe environment for my own dog and the dogs in my care. I will only be sitting one weekend per month at this time and will be very selective with the clients I take. I work full time Monday to Friday. Your pets will have my full attention while I am in your home. I will only leave for about two hours, at most per day, to grab a meal or run errands. Trusting someone with the care of your home and pers can be hard. I require meet & greet before the first stay to get to know you, your pets, and your home. It will also give you time to get to know me and address any concerns you may have. I look forward to hearing from you! In order for me, and the dogs in my care, to get good rest at night I have turned on the "Quiet Hours" option for my Rover messages from 10pm to 8am. Any messages I receive during this time will be answered in the morning after 8am. My life revolves around my dog! My job is half in-home sales, and half home office. At this time I am only available for house sitting one weekend a month. I am comfortable with dogs sleep in the bed with me and welcome on the furniture.if your house has different rules, I can bring my own air mattress. I will treat your dogs just like my own!

Gus and Jacques love Brooks. Her knowledge of puppy behavior is impressive! Our dogs were calm and happy when we got back home. House and doggies well cared for! Great pictures of our babies several times a day!

Brooks was absolutely fantastic. So easy to communicate with, so easy to work with, and above all, she made our weekend away so much more relaxing because we knew our two puppies were in amazing hands. The house was cleaner than when we left (even though this was not part of her job!) and we received frequent pictures of the pups having a great time while we were away. We would highly recommend Brooks to anyone!!

We are very pleased! They are very sweet & patient with or little pup, who is very afraid of a lot! Sadie (our pup) seems to be progressing each day. Thank you Jerry & Brooks! They are also very dependable with pictures, pick up, etc.

Information Brooks A. would like to know about your pet

I like to know your pet's routine, how you feed them, what command words you use. The more we know, the more individualized care I can take of your dog.

A typical day

My frenchie and I frequent local dog parks and walk when the weather permits. My frenchie has a strict schedule for food and meds. He eats every day at 8am and 8pm.
