Safety, trust & environment

Safety, care, and environment: When it comes to a clients home I have a range of questions to better prepare myself for the best care. I will ask for a feeding, walking, and potty schedule for your pup to better care for their needs. Information like how much food the pup gets, is the pup friendly with other pups is also a must have! I will ask for permission before walking with multiple pups, and always check fence gates before letting pups out. Nonetheless I will always keep you updated with cute pictures and videos and I will always leave a home better than I arrived!

Information Gianna R. would like to know about your pet

Please inform me ahead of time if your dog has any special needs and care instructions or behavioral issues that I may encounter. I know all pups are different and some may be more shy and timid than others which is completely ok!

A typical day

I love to explore while going out with your furry friend! We will go on lots of walk exploring new spots with new smells while we’re out and about. We will play lots of games like fetch, tug of war, or whatever the pup likes the most!

Pet care experience

Get to know me: Hi!!!! My name is Gianna. I've taken care of dogs big and small since I was a child. With 3 pups at home right now giving me years of experience with dogs young and old. I have had breeds such as French bulldogs, pit bulls, and chihuahuas personally, but have cared for many others! Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pups. My job is to care for your pup as if it were my own, making sure they are happy and well cared for. I currently am enrolled as a student at Michigan State University majoring in crop and soil science!

An excellent experience from start to finish. She was incredibly reliable, communicative, and very responsible with feeding and playtime. We received regular updates - photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We felt completely confident that our cat was in good hands. Would absolutely book again. Highly recommend!

Sasha absolutely LOVED Gianna! Gianna is obviously a dog lover, and I felt very comfortable leaving Sasha with her while I went out of town. I appreciated that she sent me a video and an update that Sasha was happy. I will absolutely call Gianna again when I go out of town!
