HAPPY VENICE PET NANNY

Pet care experience

I owned a wine import company for 12 years and retired in 2020, now I have too much time on my hands. I decided to use my experience and passion for animals (I bred and showed Golden Retrievers for many years in addition to just having pets my entire life, both dogs and cats) by offering superior pet care to people like yourself. I Am committed to treating and caring for your family member as I would my own and well qualified to responsibly take care of your Feline or Fido! I used pet sitters for years for my own pets and frankly, was never sure if they showed up, stayed or did what they were suppose to do. You can feel, without hesitation, your pet will be taken care of as I expected mine to be taken care of! If you are seeking someone who is truly trustworthy, dependable and reliable pick me….I am it! HouseSits- contact me about this service to discuss as boarding is my preference. I have the perfect house for sitting. Depending on location and schedule I will consider housesitting. . Boarding - I only accept one pet at a time or 2 from the same family, never co-mingled. ****AGGRESSIVE DOG ALERT NOTE **I WILL NOT ACCEPT, WALK OR VISIT AGGRESSIVE DOGS WHO SHOW ANY TYPE OF, OR TENDENCY TOWARDS, AGGRESSION, OF ANY KIND. Update in this regard. In 2023 I was bitten, inadvertently, by a dog in my care due to a large dog trying to attack us, I got in the middle of it. I will no longer be accepting large dogs except for certain breeds such as - Golden Retrievers, Labrador's, Doodles and like type breeds because of my apprehensiveness now around breeds such as - German Shepards, Vizlas,Pitbulls, etc. Your pet’s schedule is my schedule when my service is used, guaranteed! Since my schedule is flexible, no need to worry about that walk or visit! PLEASE check my availability before contacting - my calendar is up-to-date. Daycare and boarding - I live in a very safe neighborhood, as is my house. I have a small fenced exercise area for outside time in between walks but never unattended.

Gail was the best! She was incredibly attentive and loving towards our furry friend. It was evident that she genuinely cared for our dog’s well-being. One of the things we appreciated most was her thoughtfulness in sending us pictures of our pup throughout the day, which helped alleviate any separation anxiety we had. I would 100% entrust Gail with watching my dog again and again! I’m truly thankful to have found such a reliable and caring dog sitter.

Gail was wonderful! She took such good care of Bentley. At times he can be a handful. He was walked, got treats and lots of love and attention from Gail. I will definitely book with Gail again and recommend her and Rover. Gail sent pictures and video and we could see how happy and content he was. Great peace of mind that allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation. Thanks Gail.. you are the best! David and Bentley

Gail took great care of Enzo. She was very communicative, welcoming, and easy-going. Her place was dog-friendly, with a small fenced in area out back. Highly recommend!

Gail was very sweet and loving to our neurotic little pup! She’s very attentive and checks in often with updates. Gail only watches one dog at a time and lives in a safe home/neighborhood.

Safety, trust & environment

Specifics regarding care in my home are mentioned above. Additional questions regarding care and environment will be addressed at meet and greet that will be scheduled. In the same respect, this is my home as well as a safe haven for boarding your pet/family member! I request the following before a meet and greet and accepted boarders prior to dropping off at my house. 1). PLEASE make sure your dog has relieved themselves before arriving, both pee and poop. A high percentage of dogs have walked in my door and proceeded to not only pee but poop. Dogs get excited I know and mark but I have a front yard to accommodate that just in case! 2) If your dog is sick or one who was sick a few days before I really need to be advised. I take every precaution prior to a new dog arriving, vacuum and mop floors with a Clorox solution to insure a healthy environment for their stay. 3) Please groom your dog/s before drop-off for boarding, free of fleas (if this applies) and getting bath!
