Brittney W. Pet Care Provider in Portland, OR 97219

Hi Fellow Pet-lovers!

As someone who has been surrounded by animal companions for my entire life, I understand the struggle of leaving your pet behind, whether for work or vacation. I have dedicated my life and career to the well-being of domesticated and wild animals, and would love the opportunity to care for your furry family members while you're away!

A little about myself:
I grew up on a farm with dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, rabbits, pigs, goats, horses, and a llama, and am happy to provide care for any of those types of pets! Currently, I have an 8-year-old Boxer (Beats) who is an integral member of my family, as well as an albino corn snake (Zissou). I love all breeds of dogs, big or small, and have a knack for reading and responding to their emotions and needs. I received my Bachelors degree from U.C. Berkeley in Wildlife Conservation, and have worked professionally as a Wildlife Biologist for the past 4 years, monitoring wildlife behavior in response to human activities.

Check-ins and visits:
I will check-in with your pet(s) and provide 15 minutes of active play time and let your dogs outside -- if you have a yard. If there is no yard, I will take your pup on a 15-minute walk. I will refresh their water during every visit and, if requested, can perform other tasks, such as feeding and administering medication.

Dog-walking:
* 30 minutes of walking, playing, and running! $15 for up to 2 dogs from the same household; each additional dog from the same family add $2
* 60 minutes to get all that extra energy out and smell all the smells! $25

Pick-up and drop-off:
If your furry friend needs a lift, I'm happy to provide. $15 per trip within 6 miles. +1 per additional mile

Additional services:
If you are away for an extended trip, I can provide multiple visits in a day. One visit in the morning, afternoon, and evening -- each including a 30 minute walk and lots of extra love. $45 per day

Kitties:
I have had many cats throughout my life and understand that they all have their own personalities and boundaries. If they want to be pet and snuggled; or if they want to chase a toy and not be touched -- I will respect their needs. Each visit includes feeding, care, playing, and litter box cleaning. $18 per visit, per cat family

Holidays, Weekends, and Evenings after 7pm:
I am usually unavailable during these times, but am happy to discuss availability. Additional fees may apply.
