Availability

💗I’m a mother to two smart, loving boys, 8 and 3 years. I care for my own stuck like glue Weimaraner girl daily. 🐾 I’m available for you and your fur kids every day, providing all the attention and reassurance you and your pet need for the most comfortable, safe, happy stay. I can administer medicine on a set schedule. We love pampering the pups and often give special treats like nutritional homemade cookies and pupsicles (and cakes on birthdays). We like to go on adventures to the dog park that is down my street, with permission. 🐾Drop off for boarding is anytime after 5AM. Day care times are from 5AM to 7PM. Pickup after 7PM goes into our “Aftercare” and will result in a $10 charge per hour until 9PM. If you’d like for me to pick up or drop off, it will be $5 every 3 miles from my house there and back. 🐾I can do drop ins in your home and walks in your neighborhood depending on location and times.

We have a tall fenced yard with no neighbors on one side, tucked in a secure neighborhood. An all vinyl wood floor home, which is easy for cleaning. We have a gate to section out parts of the house if separation is necessary. One half of my house is for crating, eating, playtime and other training purposes. We provide clean bowls, bedding and toys for your pups. I take pictures and/or videos and send updates daily and whenever they’re requested. I have children, but they only interact with the pups when supervised or not at all.

Information Gina R. would like to know about your pet

🗃️Don’t forget to have your pup(s) updated on their Rabies vaccine and their Bordetella and DAPP (5-in-1) vaccines for the protection of your pet and the other pups who are staying here. Let me know if your pup(s) have any behavioral issues such as stress/anxiety when left or in a stressful situation, excessive barking or biting, etc. so we can best prepare for your visit. There may be an extra care cost that will be modified through booking. We will accommodate any other special or medical requirements for your pup(s) while in our care.

A typical day

🧩 All breeds, sizes and personalities are welcomed. We like challenging even the most active of pups, including: trying out puzzle games, playing tug of war, practicing their tricks and playing fetch. 🐕‍🦺 We will also go for a walk or swing by the neighborhood dog park to get some new scenery and smells in. 🫧On warm days, we do bubble parties and some water activities like splashing in the kiddy pool and the sprinklers in our grass. 🐾I offer a basic behavior training program that is at least 2 weeks long that includes potty training, crate training, and commands such as: sit, stay, sit long, stay long, lay down, go to place and more. This is $5-$15 per day depending on the services needed and how long they will be boarding.

Pet care experience

Hi 🐾 I’m Gina. I have been caring for and training pups ever since I was 10 when I got my first pup that I named Thomas, my baby Shihtzu. I worked at a grooming salon, trained and cared for my own and my friends’ beloved pets for years. I am on Rover and have my own pup sitting business, which has allowed me to care for and train pets full time for the last 5 years. Every day I learn something new about pups or pup care and it makes me so grateful to be given the trust to build these relationships with my pup and human clients.

Gina is very mindful that each dog has its own personality and that's a good thing. Our dogs had gone through a major life change and are still learning their surroundings. This fact in combination with Gina worked out great!!! Upon picking them up from spending the day at Gina's, they were happy, excited and end of day exhausted from meeting new friends. We look forward to continue using Gina's daycare services and near future boarding as well. Keep up the excellent work!!!

Gina was very responsive to messages. She sent updates and photos while my pets were in her care. Even though they can't tell me, I truly believe they had great time while under Gina's care. Thank you again!
