Highlights
Pet care experience
Your pet's new favorite human
I have been caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities for over ten years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their very loved pets. I am attentive, reliable, and always treat pets like they are my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I work full time as a therapist in the substance use field Monday-Friday from 9-2pm and I have recently picked up a second job to help with school, part time, Tue-Thurs 4pm-9pm. Just an MSW student looking to love on your pets to help pay for schooling

Safety, trust & environment
At the moment I can only offer care at the client's home. I am currently not in the position to bring pets into my own home.
Ratings and reviews
Gia was amazing when she took care of my Ruby! My dog can be more than a little anxious but she handled her perfectly and it was a huge relief for me to know I have someone I can depend on. Gia is also very thoughtful and even reached out to me to ask if it was ok to refill the water bowls for not only my dog, but my cat as well. Thank you so much Gia!

I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the very beginning, Gia was professional, kind, and incredibly attentive to our dog, Cali’s needs. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was not only being cared for, but genuinely loved while we’re away or when we’re at work, Cali LOVES Gia! Gia also fed our fish while we were away which was a huge help! We trust Gia completely and will absolutely be booking her again. Highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!
I’m extremely picky with who I let care for my pets, but so glad I gave Gia a chance. My pets (2 dogs and 2 cats) absolutely love her, and immediately greet her with excitement when she arrives. Gia is trustworthy, pays attention to details, and is very professional. She sends updates without me having to ask, and always asks questions before assuming. My two dogs are reactive, which is why I’m very picky with who I let care for them. Gia knows how to handle my dogs’ reactivity well on walks, without fear or negative judgment of my dogs. My cats usually hide when people come over, but after a few visits, they quickly learned that Gia could be trusted and will play with them and feed them. If you’re looking for someone who not only understands your dog or cat & their needs, but also bonds with them, I highly recommend Gia!
Gia is the best with both of my large dogs! They’re not the easiest and they’re full of energy and she does a fantastic job! I use her every year for my week long family vacation and she is a perfect house guest as well. 10/10 I recommend her to everyone!!
I bring my dog to work every day because she has bad separation anxiety, and it's always a relief to know Gia is there. Gia has a warm, caring way with my dog Zoey that truly puts us both at ease. Zoey often chooses to curl up under Gia's desk, clearly feeling safe and comfortable in her presence. I trust Gia completely to care for Zoey whenever I have to be away. Working with Gia has been a joy—she is not only friendly, but genuinely responsible and trustworthy. I am grateful to work with Gia!
Gia has been absolutely wonderful with my two dogs Selena and Rico. They can be very reactive and aren’t quick to trust people, but Gia is incredibly patient, calm, and caring with them. She takes the time to understand their personalities and makes them feel safe. It means so much to see how much they trust her — that says everything. I feel completely at ease knowing they’re in her hands and would highly recommend her to anyone, especially with dogs who need a little extra understanding. Gia has taken care of my dogs on and off for years since 2020, even staying at my house for a week while away on vacation. I am a nurse and work 12 hour shifts and I am always greatful to know my pups are in good hands with Gia!!
