Pet care experience
I currently have a eskimo Shiba mix that I have raised since he was 12 weeks old. He's now almost a year and a half. I owned a pit/boxer mix for about 8 years. He was very strong and stubborn and naturally dominant. It took some work but once he accepted me as alpha, walks and hikes were the best. Growing up, my family had a Sheltie. He was a very high energy dog and could not be off leash. I got very good at making sure he never got out without a leash as if he did, he would just run for hours. I've always had cats growing up and love everything about them. I used to work with a cat sanctuary and would always attempt to make friends with the less social cats. My favorite was Clarence. He was a blind cat that was super skittish. After a few weeks of just hanging out around him and being patient, he let me hold him. The sanctuary had never seen him warm up to anyone like that in the past.
Reviews
Always a pleasure to have Gina care for my cats! Even the shyest one comes running now!
Great communication and so wonderful with the cats!
Very communicative and attentive to our 3 cats. Couldn’t have been more pleased!
Gina was excellent! Mugsy can be a handful sometimes because of his age and stubbornness, but she handled the old man excellently. She not only took great care of Mugsy, but also took time out of her day to save me with a forgotten wallet situation. 10 out of 10! Would recommend always!

I strive to provide your dog with exactly what you do. If you tell me he wants to be let out and play fetch for a half hour, I'll do that. If he is a couch potato, I've got no problem chilling with him inside too.

Information Gina D. would like to know about your pet
Let me know anything specific about your dog. Is there anything that I should watch out for? Are they an escape artist? Do they love chew toys? Or ball? Or squeaky toys? You know your dog best so as much info as possible is appreciated.
A typical day
There is a dog park down the road from me. I can also just walk your pup around town or play fetch, whatever your dog enjoys.
