Pet care experience

Responsible, caring mom & pet lover

With over 30 years of experience caring for multiple dogs and cats of my own, I understand the various needs and personality differences of various breeds. I'm passionate about working with owners to support their four-legged family members through physical care, routine, long walks, play, & simply being present. I also have experience administering medications for those that need it. I have experienced unique joy in caring for each of my own previous pets from my Siamese Daniel & British Short-hair ZhuZhu to my Golden Retriever Calvin & Black Lab Hobbes. Can't wait to share the same with yours!

Ginny treats our dog as her own. She is in tune with his needs & an excellent caregiver. We trust her & that gives us peace of mind, so that we do not have to worry when we go on vacation. Thank you!

Sheamus came home tired but happy! He had a wonderful day away with Ginny and her kind family. He is an energetic dog, so the walks and outdoor play were perfect for him! Thank you!

Ginny and her family are AMAZING! Such kind people, & so much love was given to our sweet Sevi girl while we were away. We will be sending our pup to Ginny as often as we can when we are out of town!

Schedule

I currently do part-time administrative work from home between 8am-3pm with only a few hours of teaching & training periodically throughout the week. However, since my schedule is flexible, I'm available for regular walks & never need to be away for more than a couple of hours if needed. I enjoy daily walks and/or runs for dogs that need longer outdoor time and never refuse the offer of a furry companion while I work on the computer. After school, my two children (ages 11 & 12) also enjoy nurturing the cats & dogs we have hosted in the past. Their compassion runs deep & its not unusual to catch one of them reading to pets that stay with us.

Safety, trust & environment

I am willing to work with your schedule & needs. My home does not have a fenced-in yard, but does have access to side-walks, local parks, & trails. I can easily crate your pet and can administer any medications.

A typical day

For my dogs, I love long runs, playing fetch, frisbee, hide n' seek a treat, & ball. For cats, I love rolling balls, chasing ribbons, & pets. A good brushing is always a great way to unwind too.
