Dedicated animal care provider
Pet care experience
I started in animal care as a cat care volunteer at a no-kill shelter in Philadelphia. I moved to Sacramento and worked as an Adoption Counselor at a shelter. In this position I assisted animal care staff with cleaning kennels, administering medications and vaccines, feeding animals, bathing animals, walking dogs, etc. I also have animal behavior knowledge and enjoy working with fearful, shy dogs and cats. I have fostered dogs that were too fearful to be placed up for adoption in a stressful shelter environment and semi-feral kittens to the point that they were adopted by loving families. I have 2 dogs, 2 cats, and 2 hamsters. One of my dogs and both cats are seniors, so I am comfortable with the specialized care that can come with owning a senior animal.

Reviews
Gina has been a fabulous caretaker of our old dog. She is sensitive to her needs and responsive to our requests. We highly recommend her.
Gina was awesome with the dogs!! She took them for walks, they played outside, and we loved the updates she sent. Knowing the dogs are being cared for makes it possible to travel without them and not have to worry. Gina's great!!!!
Gina stayed overnight to watch our older dog and we could not be happier with her care. We had total peace of mind that Blue and our home were in good hands. Will book again!
Gina is the best! My Fur Baby loves her. I will definitely secure her services again.

Safety, trust & environment
I am happy to work on potty training with animals that are still learning as well as crating a dog if you would like them to be crated. I am comfortable with keeping areas of the house off limits to the animals if that is the setup that you have. I am also comfortable with locking up the house after I leave or take the dog for a walk. Also, I love playing with animals or cuddling on the couch. Whatever the animal/or pet parent prefers.
Information Gina G. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know of any special needs or behaviors to watch out for ahead of time. You can also tell me about training that you have been working on with your pet if you would like me to practice with them.
A typical day
We can hang out on the couch and go for a leisurely walk. I can also play enrichment games, go to the dog park, go hang out at a park without any other dogs. We can go to Folsom Lake if they like water. I am happy to fit the schedule to the pet's needs.

Availability
I am free most Saturdays and Sundays as those are my weekends off from work. I also work from home on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I have time to check on your animals or house sit.
