Experienced cat-sitter/dog walker!
Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Gianna, and I am a cat savvy human with over 30 years of combined personal and professional pet care experience. I grew up with cats and dogs, and learned how to care for companion animals from an early age. I currently have three cat companions (two seniors and one adolescent). I am also the regular pet-sitter for about 4-5 of my friends when they go out of town. Professionally, I volunteered with PAWS Cat City for 6 years as a CatCare Assistant, which included: feeding, cleaning cat condos, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, documenting behavioral, health, and eating habits, socializing kittens and shy cats, and assisting with administering medications. I have experience giving pills to dogs and cats, applying transdermal medications, applying flea medication, trimming nails, giving medication through an inhaler for asthmatic kitties, leash training, and giving subQ fluids. I also have experience interacting with formerly feral, shy, and “spicy” kitties. :) I also love going on walks, so walking dogs is especially fun for me. We will explore parks and different areas of the neighborhood with plenty of sniff and potty breaks!
Reviews
Gianna is reliable and communicative. We appreciate having her as a petsitter for our two cats. Even our shy kitty has warmed up to her.
Gianna is awesome. Able to watch, medicate, and care for my cat. flexible with my unexpected extension of care days.
Gianna was great! They made sure to keep me updated on how my fur baby was doing and and gave her treats and loving.
Gianna is wonderful! She spends a good amount of time playing with my kitty, and sends the best pictures :).

I will feed your pets, give them fresh water, clean the litter box(es), go on long walks with pups, and spend time playing, petting, and hanging out with them. Most other necessary tasks can be accommodated - just let me know! I am experienced with giving meds, if needed, as well.
Information Gianna C. would like to know about your pet
I’d like to know if your pets have any particular eating habits, or are finicky eaters. Is also like to know about any medical issues beforehand.
A typical day
I love to play with cats using wand toys and laser pointers. If your cat has some favorites, please let me know! If your kitty is not in a playing mood, I will usually just sit with them, pet them, keep them company for awhile. I am good at reading a cat’s energy, and will tailor the activities based on each visit.
