Safety, trust & environment

I ask that owners write down all the pet(s) and house needs/details/contacts to make sure I follow the instructions for taking care of their pets. If I need clarity, I don’t hesitate to ask questions because their care and well-being is my utmost priority. I also bring my years of experience/wisdom to the table.

Information Cynthia G. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences but I would want to know any special needs, favorite things, fears, does he/she get along with other dogs, any behavioral triggers, anything specific you do or don’t want me to do with your pet.

A typical day

I live on a small, pet-friendly island that has many trails and parks within which to walk. I am very cognizant of the dog(s) needs so if they aren’t comfortable around other dogs or have a particular outdoor activity they love then I adjust accordingly. Whatever is best for them is my goal!

Pet care experience

I’ve been surrounded by pets all my life. Growing up we had a Collie (Duke), German Shepherd (Liebschön), Miniature Poodle (Noelle), English Retriever (Boomer), Yellow Lab (Chelsea), Blue Healer (Charlie), Basset/Lab mix (Sadie Lou), Boxer (Henry) and several cats (Daisy, Tigerina, Misser). What your pets will get in my care is LOTS of love (I’m a cuddler) and time together. I take pictures and videos to send to the owners (as often as the owners wish) so they can see how their pets are doing. NOTE: I am not able to board pets in my home. When you return, your house will be clean and well-cared for, plants watered and mail/packages sorted. I’m a personal assistant so you will get that extra attention to detail in taking care of your house and pets. Most importantly, your beloved fur babies will be happy and healthy.

Cynthia watched our 2 dogs (who are not easy), 1 cat & hermit crab while we travelled for 5 days. She was fabulous! Just enough in re to updates & left the house spotless! I will 100% hire her again.

Cythnia spent a few days looking after our beloved bengal cat Lowry and house sat. She kept us informed with photos, was discrete, and also kept our house clean & tidy. Highly recommended.

Cynthia was so amazing with our dog Lucy while we were away for 2 weeks! We got home to a happy dog and wonderfully clean house. Cynthia sent us daily updates and we appreciated all of it! Lucy will be excited to see Cynthia again!

Cynthia took excellent care of our adult siamese and rag doll kitten while we were away. She sent updates with photos, managed our mischievous kitten and even charmed our now annoyed and moody siamese! We will definitely be asking Cynthia to cat sit again.
