PetSitter w/ Dog Daycare Experience

Pet care experience

Ever since I was young, I have loved animals more than anything. I absolutely adore working with animals and giving them the care they need and deserve. I can proudly say that it is my passion to look after animals. I love it - both the good and the “gross” ends of pet care. I wholeheartedly want to share that love I have for pets and animals. I also have my own pets, including a special needs Quaker Parrot who has one foot, Guinea pigs, snails and other little bugs like various species of Isopods! I also have a very well trained, 2 year old Shitzu named Leo. They are all my babies, my pride and joy! So I understand how important and valuable pets are. They’re family and I will do everything in my power to make sure your pet will be safe, happy, and comfortable. Many years ago, I started with dog-sitting and walking my neighbors dogs and other pets such as birds, hamsters, and gerbils when they would go on trips/vacation. That was my “job” when I was younger, other than taking care of my own pets as well. More recently, I have had experience working for a dog daycare. There, I would look after large groups of dogs and pet them, play with them, make sure they behave, clean up after them, etc! I have experience working with various dog breeds, such as Labradors, poodles, corgis, and many many others! Additional pet experience: I have regular clientele for Guinea pig nail trims. I have volunteered at a parrot rescue.

She is great with our dog! He is always happy to see her and it is comforting to us that he is so well taken care of while we are away.

This is my second time booking with Giselle and she was, again, amazing with my two cats. They are quite active and mischievous, and got into some trouble while I was away. Giselle seemed patient with them and cared for them well.

Giselle is the best! Our dog loves when she comes over to walk him. He is well cared for and I loved how Giselle keeps us informed on his wellbeing. It is nice not having to worry about my dog while out of town!

Information Giselle R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if there are any special requirements that a pet has or if they like things done a certain way. My priority is keeping them both safe and comfortable at all times.

A typical day

Following a pets typical routine is incredibly important. I will follow instructions well. I will also gladly play with them, whether it be a puzzle, dog safe bubbles, or simply a classic game of fetch. Whatever they enjoy I will do! The same will go for cats, of course I will do what they like best!
