If your dog will spend the time with me, I'll dedicate complete attention to your little friend based on his/her needs and his/her routine full time. :) ABOUT THE BOOKING: I need two weeks notice for more than 1night, couple of days for day care and once in contact I always schedule for a first meeting. The meeting is about 15/20 minutes outside or inside my flat if we both feel comfortable with. It is free, so no charge for it. Please be aware that there is NO OBLIGATION to accept your booking after the meeting. This is why the meeting was created for. I accept booking no more than 1 month in advance, no more than 5 days in a row. I can make exception for small and very calm, relaxed dogs or dogs that have already stayed in my flat and don't require too much energy. Please remember that I take care of one pet at a time so you will have a better chance of having the days you are looking for if you confirm before the others. This is why the first meeting is important, it allows you to have priority. When create your dog's profile, remember to add photos and all the required information. As a sitter I also decide and need the information you share with me! If you have more than one pet, Rover needs one separate profile for each one of them. Please be honest and clear about your dog HEALTH. Please note that I am unable to take responsibility for your dog’s health during your holiday if there are any existing or uncertain health concerns. Before boarding check with VET if: - Diet is correct and that there is no risk of loose stools and upset stomach. - The dog scratch, bite their skin or showing any signs of discomfort. Please maintain hight level of HYGIENE. - Make sure your dog is clean and free from fleas or ticks before the booking. - Treat the dog with appropriate medications (spray, drops or collar) specially during ticks season (April - October) In case your pet spends one or more nights in my flat, I request a text message (email or a paper) with all the dog routine INFORMATION, contact details, equipment list, food, medication and so on. I also offer daily PHOTOS and VIDEOS. You can monitor the state of happiness of your pet while is away from you. :D I simply care for your pet the same way I’d hope someone would care for mine. I know leaving your pet with someone else can feel stressful, so I’ll do everything I can to make the experience as comfortable and reassuring as possible for both you and your pet! VERY IMPORTANT: Please be kind when you request a booking and during a meeting. I offer my home and my personal space that I share with another person. Is my home therefore I DO NOT TOLLERATE any rude, destructive, offensive behaviour. I also do not tolerate any inappropriate, noisy, intruding comments or questions about my personal life. Please be respectful because I will be respectful with you. Let's maintain a friendly and polite conversation. :) I am here to offer a service and there is no reason why I should feel uncomfortable in my own home. Unfortunately this has happened in the past and I wish it didn't happen again. ABOUT DOGS AND SIZES: What if you have two dogs? I can make an exception following this criteria for a House Sitting in mine: - if the dogs are from the same owner; - if they have training or good behaviour indoors and no problem with furniture and plants; - if they are calm and relaxed; - if they weight no more than 10kg; - if they are used to not too large spaces; - if the booking is no more than 1 nights; In your House? - if they are calm and relaxed; - Drop in visit only. Again, you need to have 2 profiles for each one of them. About large dog in mine: - If they are calm and relaxed; - if they are used to not too large space; - if they have training or good behaviour indoors and no problem with furniture, plants and people; - if they weight no more than 23kg even if the large dog in Rover is considered between 18-45kg. - if the booking is for a Day Care only. I am not offering House Sitting overnight in yours at the moment, Drop in visit only. For space and personal reasons I do not take care of the following breeds: - Pit Bull Terrier. - Japanese Tosa. - Dogo Argentino. - Fila Brasileiro. - Staffordshire Bull Terrier. - Rottweiler. - German Shepherd.

Information Giorgia R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any medication, allergies or any behaviour that can be distressing for the dog and/or for humans around your pet. This is very important for me to prevent accidents or unfortunate inconveniences.

A typical day

I usually walk around Frenchay following the path of Frenchay Moor, Frenchay Common and Frenchay Park Play area which are all large and safe parks. It is about 45 mins walking but I can adapt the walk to your dog's needs. If your dog needs to walk a little bit more, depending on the weather, I walk towards Snuff Mills. While at home I like to play and do a little training if the dog is quite active, otherwise I like to let the dog chill and be free. Cuddles are always there but space is guaranteed when required. If I have to leave the dog alone in the flat for any reason, I will notify you with a message. The same happen if I decide to take the dog with me in the car. I will not do any activity with your dog that makes you uncomfortable.

Owner away…new friend today!

Pet care experience

Caring for animals has always come naturally to me. For as long as I can remember, I’ve felt a strong connection to them and a real sense of comfort being surrounded by their energy and companionship. I grew up with dogs, cats, and many other animals, and caring for them has always been a big part of my life. Over the years, friends, family, and neighbours often trusted me to look after their beloved pets as well. My closest companion was a little Maltese who stayed by my side for 16 wonderful years, until she sadly passed away in December 2022. After that loss, many people continued reaching out to me for help with their pets, and that’s how this new chapter began. The space left by my lifelong companion slowly opened the door to many new furry friendships. Alongside my experience with animals, I also have extensive training in caring for people and children, as well as a Master’s Degree in Psychology. While caring for animals is of course unique in its own way, many of the same qualities apply: patience, empathy, attention, and understanding. I truly care for every pet as if they were my own, and I understand how important it is for owners to feel their animals are safe, loved, and well looked after.

Giorgia provided great care for our dog Luca - treating him as one of the family with trips out for walks, the allotment and pub while we enjoyed our own weekend away. She shared lots of photos and videos so we could enjoy what he’d been up to and was warm and welcoming when we dropped off and picked up. Thank you for looking after him with such obvious interest and affection.

Absolutely lovely person, Giogia looked after our elderly Jack Russell for a week, we have left him a couple of times with Giorgia so he got used to her, before the longer stay, as soon as we got to her he recognized where he was & was smiling & happy. Giorgia looked after him so well & kept us fully informed on how he was doing. I wouldn't hesitate leaving him with her again, am so glad we found her through Rover fingers crossed she will continue offering her services. Thank you Giorgia for the love & care given to Buddy

Buddy had a lovely time with Georgia, he had several walks and is looking forward to returning later this month for a longer stay. Feel very comfortable leaving him with her, she is very caring & understands the anxieties of an older dog. Regular updates are received and much appreciated
