ABOUT ME
Meet my Family
Hi, my name is Brianna Hegel. I'm originally from Northern Virginia, and I spent some time in Tennessee before moving to the beautiful New River Valley. My fiancé & I live in Radford, VA.
Pets have always been my passion; I started in-home pet sitting in high school for neighbors and friends in my community. When I moved to Tennessee I worked at a dog boarding facility. Since moving to Radford, I've continued to work in pet care.
I'm beyond excited to start my own service that is dedicated to exceptional pet care AND friendly customer service and communication.
My promise to all my clients is to treat their pets like my own. Your pet is my #1 priority when under my care. I am proud to be a certified Fear-Free pet sitter, see more information about what that means on the "Certifications" page.
I have experience with lots of different animals, and I am always looking to gain more! Currently my own furry/feathery gang consists of; 4 dogs, 3 cats, a ferret, and 7 chickens! Other pets I have experience with: pigs, goats, reptiles, fish, insects, and all kinds of small animals (bunnies, guinea pigs, hedgehogs, etc.).
I have always been a dog person, and reactive dogs have a special place in my heart. My rescue dog, Millie, has struggled with reactivity and aggression issues since I got her. We worked with a fear-free trainer for 8 months, and learned a whole lot! I would love to meet and work with your reactive/anxious dog.
I graduated from New River Valley Community College in Spring 2023 with a Business Administration A.A.S. degree. I combine everything that I have learned from business school, personal experience, and work experience and use that knowledge to provide the best possible service for my clients.
I look forward to meeting and working with you and your pet(s)!
