About: I've owned cats all my life, I've house sat for people with a cat. With my many years of life with cats I've learned to deal with geriatric cats as well as kittens, and I know they will take sometime to warm up to me, or they will have love at first sight. Cats are a mystery to be solved.

I am always a bit nervous leaving my pup with a new sitter, but Ginette made me feel at ease upon drop off, and seems like a kind genuine person. She sent adorable update photos through the day to let me know things were going well. Also- My day ran late and she was totally fine with me picking her up later than the original time. I know my puppy is a handful but she must have had a fun day! She was excited to see me but fell asleep shortly after pickup, resting after a fun-filled day :) Highly recommended!

About: I have taken care of rescue dogs, both young mom and pups, along with pregnant dogs, to senior dogs. I grew up with different types of dogs and my grandfather raced greyhounds. I currently am at home. I do have my granddaughter after school, who loves animals. She has a cat. Going for walks would also help me get some exercise. I have an unfenced yard, so your dog would always be on a leash. I have a small senior dog that usually would accompany me on walks.
