Part time pet sitter
Pet care experience
I have been walking for rover for 3 years as a side job to get to play with more animals. I have worked for a vet for a short time will I was in college cleaning up the office so I am not intimidated by most messes a dog can make and I have been walking and sitting on rover since 2019.
Reviews
Gina was great! Very responsive and sent photos of the cats. Would book again and hopefully they will do less hiding next time.
Was very accommodating for last minute cat care when I was in a bind. Reliable and communicative. Thank you!
Gina is always really responsive and flexible, always leaving our minds at ease on short or long trips.
I've had Gina take care of my cat multiple times, and she has been great! She has been consistently available even on short notice.

Safety, trust & environment
Rover policy is out on a walk we don't interact with any people or other dogs. I also have a strong sturdy stance making it easy to keep large or dog reactive dogs under control. I am also an expert at body blocking to keep them inside at the door. You are paying me to hang out with your pets so once they are comfortable with me I try to spend as much time as I can with them but if they are nervous I let them have their space.
Information Gina U. would like to know about your pet
How long the pet can be alone for an overnight booking? For check-ins or walks what does the animal like to do or what should we avoid?
A typical day
I try to spend as much time with the pets as I can and I always try my best to either walk the dog in their own neighborhood or if suggested then where the owners suggest. My walk style is very much a decompression style going at the dogs speed and letting them sniff and explore. I also love to play tug and fetch and whatever your dog or cat likes to play.

Availability
I work a day job and am in office 3 days a week so I am not very available for mid day visit. My own pets are pretty low effort so I only need to check on them every other day but I also take care of my aunt's dog part-time so most of the time I am not available for extended stays. If you are a returning customer I can make exceptions to my schedule to work around the time with my aunt's dog.
