Pet care experience
My name is Brittany. I'm 22 years old and I love taking care of animals. I have worked with a variety of dogs at my past dog daycare job. Due to scheduling conflicts, I no longer work there. However, now my schedule is free and I would love to continue caring for pets! I own one dog (mini dachshund) myself and have always lived with at least four animals in my household growing up. I have a lot of love for the animals I care for and I hope to share it with yours! My previous work experience with dogs is mostly volunteer based. I have spent many hours in the Everyday Adoption Center in PetSmart assisting animals. I am also a volunteer at the Anti-Cruelty Society in downtown Chicago. I only had one job where I was formally paid for dog care, and it was a job I really enjoyed working at. I have worked with dogs of every age, from rowdy puppies to the sweetest senior dogs. I live in a fourth floor apartment/condo. My building is very dog friendly and secure. Although we don't have a lawn, I am sure to walk my dogs to a local park where they can get the running space they need. My roommates are more than willing to assist me in any dog care that is necessary. My boyfriend Matthew and his sister/our roommate Morgan have both owned dogs of every sort their whole lives, so they are comfortable with dogs in the household. Matthew is up late at night so he can accompany dogs that are night owls and Morgan enjoys running so she can be sure that excitable dogs are outside exercising.
Reviews
Brittany (and Daisy!) always takes such good care of my pup Bowie. Every time I pick her up after a stay with Brittany, Bowie is very well-adjusted which is all I can ever ask for haha. Thanks for everything, Brittany! :)
Thank you again for taking care of Preston and Sophie !!
they were great. Regular updates. I would use them again.
Brittany was great, provided updates daily. Thanks Brittany!

Information Brittany D. would like to know about your pet
Before you send your dogs to me I want to be sure of a few things. *What is their temperament? Do they prefer to be inside hanging out and lounging or outside running around? *Are they known to chew up furniture or other items in the home? *Are they a barker? If your dog is on a specific diet, it would be great if you could send food with your dog. I am very used to caring for dogs with specific diet needs and it's no issue for me. Also, let me know if you have any specific owner requests for your dog ie, certain bed times, preference on sitting on furniture, frequent bathroom breaks, or any thing else you can think of. I want to work with you to help give your dog the best care possible!
A typical day
Your dog and I would spend all day together; walking around the neighborhood, going to the park (if they like that sort of thing), playing fetch, or just lounging if that's what your dog likes to do. Where the dog will sleep is purely owner preference. If your dog is trained to sleep in a crate or in some location that is not the bed, I will respect your wishes. If you do not have a preference as to where your dog sleeps, it will be more than welcome to cuddle in bed with me!
