Safety, trust & environment

In my home, I ensure a safe and welcoming environment for pets entrusted to my care. This includes providing comfortable sleeping areas, access to fresh water and nutritious food, and ample opportunities for play and exercise. I tailor activities to suit each pet's personality and energy levels, whether it's interactive games, leisurely walks, or quiet cuddle time. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strive to maintain their usual routines and surroundings to minimize stress and ensure continuity of care. This involves following feeding schedules, administering any necessary medications, and providing companionship and attention tailored to each pet's needs. I also take care of household tasks such as bringing in mail, watering plants, and maintaining cleanliness to ensure both the pet and the home are well cared for in the owner's absence. Overall, whether in my home or a client's home, my approach to pet care is rooted in compassion, responsibility, and a genuine love for animals. I prioritize the well-being and happiness of each pet under my care, striving to create a safe, nurturing environment where they can thrive.

Gigi was wonderful! Excellent communication throughout the entire process and she was so sweet and patient with our slightly neurotic, high-energy little guy. We will definitely be reaching out to Gigi again in the future!

Giselle did a great job taking care of all my pets. She was really great about taking good care of the house, too. We appreciated the wonderful attention and care.

Giselle (Gigi) did a FANTASTIC job taking care of our fur babies - I felt so good about everything once that I met her, for the entire time that we were gone, and I came home to see that they had been so well cared for and loved (plus the house was immaculate and she taught the crazy puppy how to sit! ;). We will always have her as our pet sitter when we go out of town!

Gisselle is amazing with pets! She treats them like family and takes such good care of them. Whenever we're away, we know they're in great hands with her. We have peace of mind knowing that Gisselle is there, showering our pets with attention, affection, and all the care they need. Our pets love her, and so do we. She's like their second mom!

Giselle is absolutely qualified to be a pet caregiver. She’s had multiple pets when we grew up and all of them were happy and healthy like her dog sunny and her guinea pig luke! She’s such a kind person, you talk to her and she brings this aura of happiness and love that is unexplainable through a phone, just meet her and you’ll see what I’m talking about. She is a hard worker and likes to complete any task she gets! Most definitely, your pet is in good hands with her !

Absolutely, understanding important details about each pet ahead of time ensures that I can provide the best possible care and tailored experience for them. Here are some key things I like to know about pets before caring for them: 1. **Medical History:** Any medical conditions, allergies, or medications they may require, as well as contact information for their veterinarian. 2. **Behavioral Traits:** Their personality, temperament, likes, and dislikes, including any triggers or fears they may have. 3. **Dietary Preferences:** Their regular feeding schedule, portion sizes, and any dietary restrictions or special treats they enjoy. 4. **Exercise Needs:** Their typical activity level, favorite activities, and any specific exercise requirements they may have. 5. **Training:** Their level of training, obedience commands they know, and any specific training methods or cues they respond to. 6. **Comfort Items:** Their favorite toys, blankets, or comfort items that help them feel safe and secure. 7. **Emergency Contacts:** Contact information for the pet owner or other emergency contacts in case of any unforeseen circumstances. By gathering this information in advance, I can ensure a smooth and seamless transition into caring for the pet, providing them with the personalized attention, comfort, and care they need to thrive.
