Pet care experience
I've taken care of dogs since I was 6 years old. I currently have a Chihuahua, so I understand how the Napoleon Complex can be at times with small dogs. I do a great job of preventing outbursts during walks and ultimately changing behavior. I had my Chih potty trained within a week, I've also trained her how to sit, lay down, roll over, and how to play fetch like Odell Beckham plays football! My sister has two silly, very sweet and active Dobermanns which I dog-sit very often, and I pride myself on how well I walk the both of them. It's a real workout! Many of my friends and co-workers trust me to care for their dogs when they need help. Dogs love me and I love them with my whole heart!
Reviews
20/10 recommend Gina! She was the first person I've ever left my fur baby with in Miami. I understand that leaving your pets are a HUGE deal but Gina helped ease my anxiety. She sees animals as family and will take great care of any animal that comes her way. My minpin Dre loves Gina and always greets her with hugs and kisses every time he sees her! She takes great care of her own chihuahua Coco and will absolutely give tons of love and care to any of your pets.
Gina is an absolute GEM. Not only was she knowledgeable and aware of what it takes to take care of a variety of different dog breeds , but her patience and her genuinely loving personality made her a fantastic fit in taking care of my mix breed lab ! 5 star’s highly recommend Gina's services

I assess the anxiety level of pets, especially if it’s our first time meeting. I’ve sat for animals that have really bad separation anxiety, so I do my best at making them comfortable with a tasty healthy welcome treat and a gentle deep tissue neck and temple massage. 😁 I’m at knowledgeable in dispensing/applying medications to dogs. I will take dogs out for potty breaks 6 times a day if at my home, and will make sure they get a fair amount of exercise in. I have a large fenced yard. Dogs will always be supervised when in the backyard.

Information Gina C. would like to know about your pet
I’d like to know the following: -Does your dog experience social anxiety? -What is their diet and feeding times? -Allergies? -What commands do they know? -Are they on any medications? If so, explain. -What is their temperament around people, children, and other animals? (For instances when we are at a park) -Any additional information I should know. I’d also recommend/appreciate a meet and greet before any pet sitting/walking services.
A typical day
I will spend some QT cuddle time with your pet. There are two large parks by my house that I can take them to! You can pack one of their favorite toys so they can feel comfortable, but I typically put toys away once they’ve warmed up to me when my dog is home. This is because she can get territorial when it comes to other dogs playing with toys around her. Once the toys are away, my dog loves to play tag.

Availability
I do Freelance work in Television Production, so I’m free in-between projects. I am currently on a hiatus, and open for dog-sitting and walks. I play with my senior pup Coco everyday. She loves sunbathing, cuddles, playing fetch, and running through the neighborhood with me while I rollerblade!
