Brineydi was great! She sent me pictures and updates everyday, that put us in a lot of ease while traveling. She was patient and gave Apple extra care on the first day he was a bit nervous. I would definitely rebook with her again.

Kerry is absolutely amazing. My pup loved spending time with her - either cuddling on the couch or lounging in the back porch with her. We greatly appreciated her constant communication and the care taken while our pup was in her care.

Excellent service! Jack absolutely loved staying with Christina. I’ve never seen him more comfortable, more relaxed with anyone so quickly. I felt completely at ease leaving with Jack with Christina. From drop off to pickup I was kept aware of how things were going. When you leave your animal in Christina’s care you could be sure that they will be left with someone who is going to make them feel at home, which is such a relief for those of us who are anxious about doing so.

About: Dog and cat CPR certified. My experience ranges from puppies to seniors dogs. Each dog has their own personality and needs, so I will match my sessions with them accordingly. Currently in school. I have plenty of time during the day to spend with your fur babies. Your time is valuable, so I will be punctual to each walking session. I will not be taking care of any pets at my home at this time. However, I do have 2 beautiful fur babies (pictures above).

This was Zoey's first time work David and Phyllis, but I'm sure it won't be her last. Thank you both for taking such great care of her!!

Jayanna went above, and beyond to accommodate me from my 1st last minute request at 5.a.m., to keeping my Kenny an extra few hrs because I had an accident that even called for an ambulance, and was still available to have him ready at 12:30 a.m. so we could get on the Hwy heading towards Texas. She was the Greatest. $40 tip along with the extra hours into a paid full day day was a drop in the bucket for someone a kind, sweet, and caring with animals, and clients as she's proben to be! 🥰

Artesha was an EXCELLENT sitter! I had a young puppy (5 months) and had to go on a long international trip. I was really nervous about leaving her when anyone because it is such an impressionable age and she is a sport dog prospect. Artesha was kind, knowledgeable, and experienced, so I decided to go with her. I couldn’t have booked with anyone better! Artesha made sure my puppy had plenty of positive socialization with other, safe dogs (hers and a couple of daycare clients) and people. During my trip she gave me brief updates and photos via WhatsApp. She put my mind completely at ease despite me being so far away. My dog was so calm and satisfied when I picked her up. 10/10 would recommend and book again! Thank you sooo much, Artesha!

Brineydi is an excellent pet sitter and a true professional. When we first visited her with Buddy, she took the time to go through every detail about his care, routine, habits, and needs. She explained everything thoroughly, which immediately gave us confidence and peace of mind. From that very first meeting, we felt that no one could take better care of Buddy than she could. We were away for four days, and throughout our trip she constantly kept us updated with pictures and messages about Buddy. It was so reassuring to see how happy, comfortable, and well cared for he was while we were away. We are extremely satisfied with her services and could not be happier with the care she provided. Needless to say, whenever we need someone to look after Buddy in the future, Brineydi will be our first and only choice. We highly recommend Brineydi to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Buddy!

I'm apprehensive to leave my boys with anyone, my family included. Luckily, I connected with Cindy and she watched my guys for a couple days. Fantastic! She sent photos & videos and kept me up to date on their visit. We've been home for about an hour and the boys are sawing logs... I think they enjoyed their stay! Big thanks to Cindy and highly recommend her!

We couldn’t be happier with the care Jonathan gave our dog while we were away for five days! From the start, he was reliable and communicative. During our trip, our dog had some unexpected tummy troubles, and Jonathan went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and well cared for. He kept us updated, handled everything with such kindness and patience, and truly treated our dog like his own. He even sent us home with helpful items and advice to keep our pup feeling better—such a thoughtful touch that really shows how much he cares. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dog was in such good hands. We would absolutely trust Jonathan again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a compassionate and dependable dog sitter!
