Pet care experience
Hi Thanks for visiting my Rover page! My name is Gina, I have been working (full time) with animals for well over 10 years. It’s very important for me that your pup feels at home during their stay.My animals are crate trained but if yours are not it’s alright. I’ll never force a pet into a kennel or crate. My goal is to help both you and your dog have a stress-free vacation. Generally, I am home with the dogs all day but I also do training and work with foster animals. So (If/when) I do leave the home it’s only for a couple of hours. We do a ton of outdoor activities such as swimming at the dog beach or the state park. Also, just walking in general. I generally do not take the dogs to caged dog parks for various reasons. Please feel free to message me with any additional questions. *** I am CPR, CPCR and first aid certified both canine and feline. My Requirements: proof of vaccines prior to first booking. About this sitter: Absolute avid animal lover. Simply stated. I’ve completed my Training Certification and have volunteered for various rescues. I love all animals- Big and Small, Old and Young!....I will not disappoint you or your beloved pooch.
Reviews
Gina was great! She sent updates, and was very responsive to any messages I sent. Scout got lots of exercise and socialization with other dogs. It was a great experience, and we would definitely recommend!
Second time using Gina and she is wonderful.
Gina took great care of my little man! Super communicative and sent great photos. Will absolutely book Gina again.
Gina was great with our senior pup! Made this helicopter dog mom feel very comfortable with check-ins and photos! Will definitely book with her again!

Information Gina Z. would like to know about your pet
Since I also have dogs or am generally watching or fostering for someone else, I prefer a non-aggressive dog. If there are aggression issues, I can work around them but please be sure to advise me ahead of time.
A typical day
Here's where we'll take our walks Short walks will be around the neighborhood. Long walks will be at the local park or we love to go on road trips to the state park or the dog beach. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Optional. I crate train my animals but do not require them to sleep in their crates at night. This varies based on your pets preference/requirements. Time I'll spend with your dog I have a fenced in yard so the dog(s) can spend as much time outdoors as they would like but generally they will get at least one walk in the morning and one in the evening. I also spend time playing with toys and/or doing reward training daily. If you do not wish for your dog to participate in reward training please tell me.

Why I love dog sitting I was born and raised around animals and could not imagine ever coming home to a house without them. I love dogs of all sizes and breeds, I do not discriminate :) My house is located in locust point, Baltimore near Fort McHenry. We have a large dog park just across the street and are only a few minutes away from the state park. About my yard I have a fenced in back yard with a deck and ample amount of space for the animals to run and play fetch. I still think any medium or large breed should go for at least one daily walk.
