Veterinary professional!
Pet care experience
First and foremost: animals are my life! I have been taking care of pets professionally since 2015 and personally for even longer. I was a boarding manager for 5 years and have been a lead veterinary receptionist for the past 3 years. I also just made the exciting jump to start veterinary technician schooling. That being said, I only take on pet sitting gigs that make sense with my schedule and your pet's care. I also am flexible with my rates based on the distance away and your individual pet's needs. I believe each animal should be treated as an individual for their specific care needs. In order to provide the best care, it is vital to truly understand animals and their behaviors. I take great pride in providing a loving environment for all types of pets. I have 15 total of my own currently and have extensive medical and husbandry knowledge for each. I am available to care for all types of animals including exotics. If it is a pet I have not cared for, I would love to learn their care! I am comfortable with all sizes and temperaments. I have successfully built relationships with nervous or unsure pets. I am able to properly administer medications including but not limited to insulin injections and sub-q fluids. I worked overnights triaging emergency vet calls and taking care of hospitalized patients for over 2 years. I also can provide nail trims, routine ear cleaning, and baths.
Reviews
I am the Hospital Manager at Overland Animal Hospital and Gianna is one of our best employees. Her care for the pets is exceptional. Gianna has a strong background in animal welfare and veterinary knowledge making her a wonderful candidate for a petsitter. She has experience with exotics, dogs, and cats, is always punctual, a hard worker, and has a passion for animals that can't be matched. I've never seen anyone go above and beyond for the animals the way Gianna does.
Gianna did such an amazing job taking care of my little man! I have a very difficult kitty, who a lot of boarding facilities cannot take because he requires twice daily insulin injections and is also kind of a jerk. I was so anxious about leaving him, but she put all my worries at ease and everything went so smoothly. I will absolutely be reaching out to her in the future.
About Gianna C.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I do not provide in home care due to many variables but I have no problem traveling to provide my care in the comfort of your home! I am very reliable and I have many professional/personal references.
Information Gianna C. would like to know about your pet
It is important for me to know any information about your pet that could potentially come up when you are not around weather that is medically based information or behavioral. This will assure your pets safety as well as the safety of everyone around them. I am pretty observant and able to use my experience for most situations but I like to be as prepared as possible.
A typical day
I am very attentive to my personal pets and pets in my care. Every pet is different in regards to "fun" activities so what we end up doing or exploring would be dependent on their desire! I do spend a lot of time outdoors on walks through the neighborhood or hikes in the mountains. I also enjoy working on training for mental stimulation. Even just a sit can cause a dog to tire mentally which is important!

Availability
I currently work full time at a veterinary clinic but if needed I can arrange a schedule change ahead of time to coordinate with yours. Unfortunately pet sitting is not my full time job but many situations will work around my schedule.
