Exercise, love, and attention!

Pet care experience

I have been caring for dogs all my life. As a young girl my parents taught me discipline and responsibility by teaching me to care for dogs. I have trained many types of dogs big, and small and have been exposed to all dog types when I worked at a doggy day care. My best friend's name is Cali, she is a medium-sized Shepard-Mix, angel! If you ever got to meet her you'd know the love and dedication I have for the care of dogs and all living things including other pets like cats, fish, and reptiles. I work professionally in horticulture, and specialize in indoor and outdoor landscaping. So you can even hire me to water your plants and take care of your garden as I take care of your beloved pets!

This was our first time using Rover and Gina was great as a dog-sitter/house-sitter. She sent a daily update about our pup and kept the place spotless. She responded quickly to our texts and made us feel at ease while we were away. We would recommend Gina if you're looking for someone to take care of your home or furry animals while you're away.

Gina was a great house and pet sitter. She was very responsive to our need regarding the pets the house and the rental unit. She kept us updated and left everything in great condition. She made our vacation more relaxing knowing things were under control. She made sure our pipes didn’t freeze too. Thanks Gina!

Gina was the best dog sitter I could ask for! Took great care of my two babies while I wasnout of town, and went above and beyond to help my high energy puppy and gave helpful tips. She's the best.

Information Gina G. would like to know about your pet

I love all dogs! So whatever your dog breed, I will know how to handle them. I definitely would like to know what your loved one's potty patterns are like, whether they are dog or people aggressive, and if they are allergic to anything or have any specific medical conditions. if your dog does have a medical condition, i would like to know the medication they take and how to administer it, as well as their vet's information in case of an emergency.

A typical day

I love to go to dog parks, if there is a park nearby and your dog likes to socialize we will definitely go there. I also like to challenge dogs by doing what I call, mapping. An example of mapping is walking down one block while dropping treats along the way. Then we turn around and go back down that same block while your dog sniffs around and finds the treats we've left behind. This increases a dog's memory, intelligence, and stimulates the use of their natural instincts.
