Gina can care for
Availability
I’m a professional artist who works from home, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care throughout the week. I’m available for weekday and weekend walks and drop-in visits, including daytime appointments. Because I manage my own schedule, I can often accommodate recurring visits and occasional last-minute requests while giving each pet dependable, unrushed attention.

About Gina P.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I treat every pet as if they were my own, with their safety, comfort, and well-being as my highest priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medication, exercise, and household routines, while keeping doors, gates, leashes, and pet areas secure. I take time to build trust, respect each pet’s individual personality, and watch closely for changes in behavior, appetite, energy, or signs of stress. I provide gentle, attentive care and communicate openly with owners through detailed updates and photos. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away.
Information Gina P. would like to know about your pet
Before the first booking, I prefer to arrange a meet-and-greet so your pet and I can become comfortable with one another. I’d like to learn about their personality, daily routine, favorite activities, feeding instructions, leash habits, and any medical needs or sensitivities. Please also let me know about any strong pulling, reactivity, aggression, escape behavior, or situations that may cause fear or stress. I have experience with dogs of many breeds, sizes, and personalities, but I’m best suited to dogs who can be handled safely and respond well to calm, gentle care. This information helps me ensure that I’m the right fit and provide the safest, most comfortable experience for everyone.
A typical day
Every visit is tailored to your pet’s normal routine, energy level, and personality. Dogs can enjoy a relaxed neighborhood walk with plenty of time to sniff and explore, or a more active walk if that’s what they prefer. During drop-in visits, I can provide feeding, fresh water, playtime, enrichment, potty breaks, medication as instructed, and plenty of individual attention. For cats and other pets, I’m happy to offer interactive play, gentle affection, or quiet companionship—whatever makes them feel most comfortable. After each visit, I’ll send photos and a detailed update so you know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

Former Vet Assistant & Trusted Care
Pet care experience
I’m a lifelong animal lover, former veterinary assistant, and experienced Rover sitter with a 5-star rating. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, hamsters, and other small animals throughout my life, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with both your pet and your home. I provide calm, attentive, individualized care based on each pet’s routine, personality, energy level, and comfort. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter-box care, basic medication, senior pets, and pets that need a little extra patience while getting acquainted. As an artist who works from home, I have a flexible schedule and can often accommodate weekday walks, drop-in visits, and occasional last-minute requests. Every visit includes thoughtful updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and receiving plenty of attention. I’m happy to arrange a complimentary meet-and-greet before the first booking to learn about your pet’s routine, preferences, behavior, and care instructions.

Reviews
Thank you Gina, you were awesome and very responsive!
Gina was fabulous! We are new in town and it is always a bit nerve-wracking to find someone to check on our boys. Gina was kind, caring, gave great updates daily on how much time she spent with the boys, their moods and activities. I am very thankful that we found Gina, and the boys are thrilled as well!
If I'm ever out of town, I can always rely on Gina to watch my two little pups! She's the sweetest lady and is defiantly a dog person! She always sends me photos of my pups throughout their stay with her too:) Would highly recommend her!
