About Gina K.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
Having someone new take care of your pet can be nerve wracking, which is why it is so important in my eyes to treat your pet as I do my own! To us, pets are family and they deserve to be treated as such.
Information Gina K. would like to know about your pet
There are a few important things to know before starting walking/sitting for your pet: - any behavioral issues in certain settings -any behavioral issues with items (toys, food, etc) -history of eating foreign objects -medical history/conditions that is important -any medications or supplement they need to be given and how they take it My goal is to continue their normal schedule, whatever that may look like for them!
A typical day
It is important to stimulate dogs both physically and mentally. This would include going for a nice walk, throwing a ball around in a yard, practicing various obedience commands with positive reinforcement, and playing ‘sniff and find’ where they have to find a few hidden treats in a small room! No matter the age, every dog can benefit from a little bit of both. Cats really have the life. Cuddling, playing, and doing their own thing is really what its all about. Whether your cat is interactive and wants to play or would rather sit on the window sill and look outside, I can adapt to their schedule!

Reviews
Gina was amazing! Chewy and Mika liked her right away. And - she's brave. Mika came home one week ago as a nine-week-old puppy; Gina popped in for an hour of his total energy and complete insanity. They were in terrific hands. Gina even noticed Mika has a little limp, and let us know. We knew he had it, but it shows her care and attention to them while she was here. I can't recommend her enough for watching your pets!!!
