I love dogs and the outdoors
Pet care experience
I've always loved animals - especially dogs. I grew up looking after my german shepherd and regularly dog-sit huskies, terriers, cavapoos, retrievers, aussie shepherds and all kinds of rescues and cutie mutts (of all ages and abilities). I'm super comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages and temperaments because dogs are beautiful animals and every dog teaches me something new. I have a flexible schedule, love walking and playing outside and helping dogs get the exercise they need to live fulfilled lives. I am a friendly, easygoing, playful and trustworthy neighbor and understand how important your furry family member is. I also believe that dogs need to roam, wander and engage their senses outside the home in order to lead a good dog life.
Reviews
Gaya was very lovely to work with! She made sure that Finn was comfortable with her and by the time we were ready to leave, he didn't even look back at us. Will book with her again.
Amazing job! She was wonderful and eased all my apprehension for having a dog walker. My senior dog was super happy to be with her and I felt very secure!
Gaya is one of the best dog sitters\walker you could ask for. Our dog loves her and she is amazing herself. She has done dog walks and also dog sat for several days and it has been very helpful. Highly recommend!
Gaya has been a wonderful dog sitter and companion for my dog as well as other dogs in our friends' network. She is responsible and aware of the pet's needs, and goes above and beyond to ensure that the pet has a wonderful time in her company. I highly recommend Gaya to be part of Rover!

I have a backyard and a 2200 sqft home where I can board or watch your dog in the future, though I'm starting out with offering just walks for the moment so I can get to know your unique friend and learn about them and their ways.

I would like to know about your dog’s temperament, activity preferences, behavior and level of leash training so I can take them out safely and enjoyably.
A typical day
I love to interact with dogs physically and mentally, craft games and exercises, work with to discover the world around them, and use and explore their senses to the max. I study dog psychology and know that they have unique histories, needs and behavior traits. It’s my job to discover how they like to be engaged and then pour my curiosity and energy into giving them exercise and affection so they live balanced lives.

I'm currently on leave from work to help by hubby recover from an ankle operation so I have plenty of flexibility. I love getting up before sunrise and can walk your dogs or play with them anytime from 6:30am to 9pm.
