Services
Gigi can care for
Availability
I'm currently working full-time but my in person hours may reduce soon. I live in Santa Rosa so I try to stay local in my work. House sitting and pet sitting are my preferred services, but I can also do drop-ins and walks. Also, I typically like to keep my phone off on Saturdays and Sunday Mornings as my time to re-center and refresh away from distractions. However, if you have a pressing/urgent matter where it cannot wait till Sunday afternoon, I can keep my phone on for you.

About Gigi W.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I like to cuddle with my creatures if I sense that they like it too. I try to learn their language and their personalities. Every single one is so unique! I treat them like my own babies.
Information Gigi W. would like to know about your pet
The questions I ask most often are what the phone numbers are for the vets, any emergency phone numbers, access to crates/carriers in case there's a fire or other natural disaster. And lastly where they'd like to me to put the house key once I leave or if they'd rather me stay and wait for them to return home. I do not have experience using injections on animals but I am hoping one of you can train me!
A typical day
I like to be with animals as much as possible! Ideally cuddling in the mornings, then poking around in the yard together (after feeding) and taking any funny photos of the cats/dogs chasing a bug or lizard! After I come home from work and feed them dinner- more cuddling and exploring together!

Crazy cat lady
Pet care experience
My dream is to have a house full of cats and dogs even if they don't all belong to me! I bring a peaceful energy which seems to calm most anxious cats, dogs and other animals that I've met. I'm very affectionate with my animals and I'm good at reading their body language most of the time. I'm happy to have your animals sleep in bed with me even or give them medicine. I am also respectful and responsive with requests you may have. I also err on the side of over-communicating rather than under communicating so as to avoid any misunderstanding or disappointment. All that to say, I will probably ask a lot of questions to make sure everything will be completed as you desire.😅 Written instructions work best for me.
Reviews
I am so so pleased with Gigi and her pet/house sitting for my two cats. Gigi spent time to get me and my pets prior to pet sitting, asking important questions and putting my worries at ease (and I always worry before trips). Gigi was clean and gave intermittent updates and pictures of our cats during her time with them. I would gladly rebook.
Gi Gi looked after our little dog and our house while we were on trip. She sent us photos of our dog daily. Would highly recommend Gi Gi for pet/house sitting!
Gigi is a doll! Roscoe and I hope she will want to come babysit again! Gigi is very neat and such a kind person. She sent me photos throughout the whole time I was out of town.
Gigi was a wonderful and loving pet sitter to our two dogs. She took excellent care of them and our home. Gigi communicated throughly with us before and during her stay, and sent great pics and videos. We have one special needs dog that Gigi was able to befriend, and another that enjoyed rides in her bike basket and even allowed Gigi to bathe her! We arrived home to a clean and tidy home with fresh stewed and dehydrated apples from our tree. Gigi was lovely to work with and we will confidently call on her again.
