Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced Dog Lover
I grew up raising puppies and have spent most of my life around big dogs. I also have experience with larger farm animals. I have 4 years of dog sitting experience since I became a working professional after college and 7 years of dog walking experience on various other apps. I have cared for and helped train puppies and have senior dog experience, including grooming, teeth brushing, nail clipping and more.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I am quick to learn about clients homes, very neat and always help my clients around the house. I think animals are most comfortable in their own environments so I like to stay with them rather than the other way around. If the pet parent has a yard, I make sure to play with the dog in the yard, otherwise I will take the dog on multiple walks through out the day!
Ratings and reviews
We booked G to house-sit & take care of Bear for 5 days — our first time working together, which led to some misunderstanding about how much time they'd actually spend with him. At the meet & greet, they mentioned a class & another booking on the day we returned, but we didn't realize until we got home that they'd taken on several additional bookings during our stay. We appreciated their honesty in telling us about the other bookings when we asked, but Bear's getting older and isn't used to spending much time alone. If we had known about the other bookings in advance, we would have made arrangements to cover those gaps. Rover doesn't limit the number of clients a sitter can book at once, and while sitters have access to a calendar that details their upcoming commitments, that information isn't visible to pet parents — Rover relies on the two parties to discuss it directly at the meet & greet or in their messaging app. Making that calendar visible to both sides would help set clearer expectations and flag any overlaps up front, preventing misunderstandings like this.
Came back home to happy pups and cat with a home better than we left it. Rest assured your pets will be well taken care of with G. Puts them a front of all care and is very good with communication. Highly recommended!
G. K has been excellent. She was on time and adjusted to my schedule even when it was last minute. My dog walks very slowly as he is senior, G.K took care of him while on his walk. Appreciate her help very much. Would definitely recommend.
Excellent communication and attention to the weather to avoid overheating Ceara's paws. Ceara was calm, happy and well exercised when we returned. G. was pleasant and professional.
Highly recommended! Our dog is much happier after walks with G!
I was very impressed with G.'s visits. My cat is very skittish but when I returned from my trip, she was calm so I think G. did nothing to cause anxiety. In addition, in one of her daily reports, G. pointed out something about the cat's feeding habits. I was aware of this but felt that it was very responsible of G. to notice it after just a couple of days and bring it to my attention. I will be calling G. the next time I have a trip planned. Thank you G. for being so conscientious.

Schedule
I am looking to spend as much time outside with pets both for exercise and because I love animals. I am available weekdays and weekends, I work part time so will sometimes be away from the animal for 4 hours at a time.
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsG can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
- Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or if you have special requests. I think it’s important that dogs are comfortable with their caretakers, if I’m asked to sit, I would prefer to meet the dog ahead of time to ensure it’s a good fit!
