Pet care experience

Your Pet's New Favorite Aunty

I've grown up with pets my entire life -- dogs, cats, bunnies, birds and more, and have helped care for my family's animals from a young age. Over the last 5 years, I've been regularly trusted by friends and neighbors to watch their pets while they travel or work, providing walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also have my own pets, so I'm very familiar with daily routines, behavior, and creating a safe environment. I treat every pet like they are my own.

Gidette is hands down the best rover I have had. She took incredibly good care of my dog, sending me updates and several pictures/videos a day. She has two dogs that got along well and played with my dog. I would book again without hesitations.

In all the times I’ve seen Gidette handling dogs—whether it’s her own or someone else’s—she’s incredibly attentive and treats every pet like they’re part of her own family. She’s always making sure each dog is safe, comfortable, and well cared for, even when she’s juggling multiple pets at once. It’s clear that she’s got a real knack for it, and you can trust her to treat your pets just like her own.

I've known Gidette for a few years now and see first hand how well she cares for her own dogs. They are always happy, friendly and excited to have human or animal visitors come over. Gidette is known for taking in animals that need a temporary home and having an extra dog or cat stay with her for as long as needed while the pet parent is away for a day or a week. Gidette is a great dog mom and dog babysitter. She cares for her animals and uses positive reinforcement to teach her dogs.

I highly recommend Gidette as a pet sitter and dog walker. She has many years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all kinds and is incredibly loving, patient, and attentive with every pet she meets. Animals naturally gravitate toward her, and it’s easy to see why—she treats each one as if it were her own. Gidette is reliable, trustworthy, and truly passionate about animal care. Any pet would be lucky to be in her care, and any owner can feel confident knowing their pet is safe, loved, and well looked after with her.

Gidette is great with animals. She always cares for her pets as if they were her children. Provides a healthy and loving environment for her animals and always puts them firs. She is responsible, clean, watches for behavior and reacts accordingly. I would highly recommend her to watch your four legged companions!

Schedule

My days honestly revolve around my pets, so adding another fur baby into the mix is easy. I walk my dogs every morning, when I get home from work, at night before bed and we go to the dog park 5-6 days a week. During the weekdays, I'm available for evening or nighttime dog walks while people are still at work or out for the night. Weekends are when I have the most flexibility, and I'm available for dog sitting or boarding. Pet care already fits into my daily rhythm, so your pet will be part of a routine that's full of love and activity.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I'm very attentive and make sure pets feel secure, whether they're staying in my home or I'm caring for them in yours. I maintain clean spaces, supervise interactions, follow feeding and medication schedules carefully, and keep a calm, loving environment.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day with me is active, social, and full of enrichment. I have tons of toys, interactive feeders, chew toys, and balls to keep pets mentally engaged. We usually spend an hour at the dog park most days of the week, and you'll also find us strolling around my apartment complex, sunbathing in the backyard, or exploring easy hiking trails around town.

I treat every pet like my own, so they'll naturally fall into the same routine as my two dogs and cats. Because I do have cats at home, I need to know how your dog behaves around cats; friendly or indifferent is fine, but I cannot accept dogs who have shown aggression, high prey drive, or unsafe behavior towards small animals. Please let me know if there are specific preferences or routines you'd like me to follow (feeding schedule, crate use, walks, etc.) I do visit dog parks daily, usually Daily Park off of Mona Lisa Rd or Naranja Park in Oro Valley, so its important to know your dogs comfort level and behavior around other dogs. Honest communication helps me make sure everyone stays, safe, happy, and on a comfortable routine.
