Honest, Active, & Attentive Sitter!

Pet care experience

I have 4 lb 7 year old yorkie named Rosie who is super playful and friendly. I have been a dog owner since a very young age and I love caring for and playing with dogs of all ages and breeds! I just moved back to Chicago from south Florida, and took a break from rover for the last three years. Before moving to Florida I was an active sitter here in Chicago and loved It. My little one also loves the company! I have been with rover for many years now as both a client and sitter, and I really appreciate the comfort of leaving my dog in a loving home rather than boarding them when I have to travel. I try to provide this peace of mind feeling to all of my clients. I usually walk Rosie daily, though she is pad trained. Rosie is a bit spoiled, but she is also very disicplined. If you would like to have dog playdates with rosie, I can bring her, but I do not have to! I am available for walking and check ins, too in addition to dog sitting. About this sitter: I graduated from the School of the Art Instute of Chicago, with a Masters in Arts Administration. I am currently working remotely, so I am home often. I also teach yoga around the city, so I leave for an hour or so here and there during the day. But I am generally home a lot throughout the week and I have plenty of time to spare! Why I love dog sitting I have grown up with dogs all of my life. We have had labs, rottweilers, bernese mountain dog, and yorkies. I love all breeds and sizes. Since I have a very tiny dog, I am concerned for her safety and do prefer to do a meet and greet. I do not have a yard, but I live on a neighborhood block with tons of dogs and I am only one block from palmers square, which is so much fun to walk around, especially as It begins to warm up! My experience administering medication yes, I had a dog with PLE that I had to get used to giving many different types of medication to daily (pills, slurries, injections). Its no fun for either of us, but you have to do what you have to do !

Giana was fantastic watching my dog Maggie. She was super flexible when I had issues with my return flight home. Maggie loved playing with her adorable dog Rosie, and came home happy and pooped (which means she had a great time). I would highly highly recommend Giana!

Giana was absolutely amazing and one of the best (if not the best) sitters I've ever met. She cared for my dog like he was her own, and he came back a happier pup than when I had dropped him off! I highly recommend her and will definitely consider her for the next time I need someone to watch my dog!

Giana was excellent. This was my first Rover experience and she made it so easy which relieved my anxiety about leaving my dog for 3 days. She is extremely knowledgeable and really loves and cares for dogs. While my little guy tested her limits I know he was VERY well taken care of while I was away. Giana played with him and gave him the love and attention he needed. I would highly recommend Giana, she and Rosie will welcome you with open arms. Thanks so much!!

For anybody looking for a safe, comfortable, and caring stay for your four legged friend, Giana's place is your best bet! She was incredibly accommodating! This was my very first time using Rover, and I was very nervous, but we got to arrange a meet and greet with her little one and my Sofi the night before her stay (NYE), even though she had just gotten back into the city. Sofi was not anxious at all when I dropped her off or picked her up. Giana asked a lot of questions about her habits, feeding schedule, and walk length, even though she was just staying for a night, and I really appreciated that. Rosie, Giana's dog, is a wonderful nugget! very playful and likes company a lot. I would highly recommend them both. Sofi and I had a wonderful experience.

I would like to know about your dogs daily routine: what time does he/she go out for walks, eat, sleep, etc.

A typical day

I am a very passionate about animals and truly care for each pet as if they were my own. Being a dog owner myself, it is important to me to know that the routine I have implemented for my dog is not broken, so I follow your rules to the best of my ability. I will feed and walk your furry friend on your schedule, and i will spoil or not spoil your animal according to your directions. I am a very active person, so if your dog likes to go on runs or long trips to the dog park, i am able and willing to take on those extra activities. If you need a sitter, lets talk and customize the ideal schedule!
