Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Galina! Animals have been the biggest passion through out my life. I currently have one small dog named Pockets but I have experience with dogs of all different sizes and temperaments and with cats too! I am a part time dance teacher for children and love to spend the rest of my time caring for animals. I offer house sittings, walks, and drop in feedings & play time. I fully ensure your loved fur babies are always safe in my care and handled appropriately around any other animals. I make sure they're walked, get LOTS of one on one play time, treats (as appropriate), and as much love and belly rubs as they can take! As a dog parent myself, I love photos of my pets and always send photos and updates for you to put your mind at ease while you are away from your pets. I am happy to watch your pets in your home or in mine. When I pet sit or do walks/check ins at your house, I am always responsible and clean, leaving your home neat, tidy, and cleaner than when you left! Also happy to offer plant watering, mail pick up, or anything else you need when I'm at your home, even if it's just a drop in visit. I treat your pets like they are my own because I love all animals!! I'll make sure they feel they have a new best friend, lots of play time, endless attention, and the safest care.

Galina is the most amazing dog walker ever! She is so incredibly kind with every animal, trustworthy, and responsible. I can rely on her to treat my animal with kindness. 100% recommended Galina! She is so sweet and easy to work with. You and your animals will love her!

I highly recommend Galina to any pet owners! My dog is always excited to see her and comes home happy, exercised, and well cared for. If you're looking for someone trustworthy and attentive to care for your pet, I would absolutely recommend Galina.

I am old and could not walk my dog because I could not keep him under control. He was a very strong Husky and would pull so hard on the leash. Galina loved my dog. She cared about his safety and his well being. She would walk Charlie with grace and control. He was always happy to see her.

Galina has watched my 3 dogs for years. They all love her, and she always leaves the house in great shape. It’s a relief to come home to happy, well taken care of dogs!
