Safety, trust & environment

I will provide updates and pictures of your pet while you are away and I will call you immediately you if I notice anything unusual or concerning about your pet. I will also make sure to clean up any pet related messes in your home.

Information Gigi R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or accommodations. I have experience with administering both oral medication and injectable medication or treatments. Also include how many times a day your pet is fed and how much. Let me know if your pet has any food or resource guarding and if they are crated while no one is home.

A typical day

During drop-in visits, I will feed your pet according to your instructions, spend some time with them so they aren't alone all day, and (if your pet is a dog) take them outside for potty breaks. I will also take dogs on a walk during the evening drop-in visit.

Extensive animal care experience

Pet care experience

I started house sitting for neighbor's pets when I was a child and began volunteering at an animal shelter when I was 15. I went on to be employed at the Dearborn Animal Shelter as an adult where I gained important experience in caring for several animals with different needs at once. I have volunteered at two other shelters since then. I have extensive animal care experience from pet sitting, working at animal shelters, fostering animals, and my undergraduate degree in animal science. I currently work full time Monday - Friday, but I am available for drop-in visits before 8am, at noon, and after 5pm on weekdays. I am available during most times of the day on weekends for drop-in visits. For walks, I am available before 8am and after 5pm on weekdays and most times of the day on weekends.

It was a challenge finding the right person, for our unique situation. I feel fortunate Gigi was available to help us. She went above and beyond, what I expected. Keep up the good work!
