Surrounded by Pets a Lifetime

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of pets since I was 8 years old and now I have a 9 year old daughter. Throughout my life I’ve personally owned Parakeets, a Yellow Labrador, a Pomeranian, Papillon, Turtles, Frogs, Fish, and a Himalayan Cat. Naturally people have come to me without question to care for their pets temporarily and occasionally permanently based on their circumstance. It came as a surprise the first time someone asked if I could adopt their pet, knowing it’s not easy to let go of what we consider family but I realized I became a pet magnet because of my organic love for animals. I’ve spent time at animal shelters volunteering and as an only child pets are like the siblings I’ve never had. I’m currently working from home so I have tons of extra time to play, care, walk, feed, and bring your pet (family) into my world. I have a fenced yard with tons of room where the dogs can run around and a dog park. I like to walk dogs every few hours for exercise and comfort. My community has security on ground and there’s also a Dog Spa at my location available for an extra fee if you’d like extra pampering!

Did not show up for scheduled walk and did not communicate on the app prior to no-show, causing me to leave work early in the middle of the day to take care of my dog.

Giselle was an amazing dog sitter for my 5-month old pup during a holiday weekend. She genuinely loved and cared for my dog as if it were her own. She arranged time for us to meet in-person prior to their stay, she's professional and sent lots of photos. My pup even cried once he left Giselle's company. Highly recommended for her exceptional service and devotion to the well-being of my pup. Thank you!

Information Giselle Q. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs, allergies, unique behaviors, or anything else critical for safety and comfort of your special pup.

A typical day

I love to stimulate dogs through walks + play physically and mentally such as practice with training. On nice days I enjoy staying out for extended periods of time reading with the dog soaking up the fresh air.
