Home for Happy Paws 🐾💘

Hi, I'm Gloria 🙋🏻‍♀️. Dogs have been a part of my life since I was little: I've cared for and raised many breeds, from puppies to gentle giants. I know each one has their own rhythm, routines, and special needs, and I understand that they're not just "pets," they're family. 💖 In my home, your dog will find a safe, calm, and loving space. They'll receive constant attention, daily walks, playtime, and lots of affection. I'll also make sure to follow their feeding, medication (if needed), and rest schedules. With me, your pup will not only be cared for, but also loved and pampered 🐾. I'll send you photos and updates so you always have the peace of mind knowing your best friend is happy and well cared for. ✅ Over 30 years of experience living with and caring for dogs of all breeds ✅ Patience, love, and respect for their routines ✅ My promise: your dog will be part of my family while at home Here, your pup will have a second home full of love, fun, and security. 🌸🐕

Our dog Simon is always taken care of with love & caring. Gloria is wonderful dog sitter & Simon needed extra special care this time, with some new medications to administer over a period of days with changing dosages. Gloria took on the task as any mother would for her child and I knew Simon was well looked after. I am so very thankful for her.

Gloria, Was wonderful with our two Cockers for 7 days. She updated us twice a day with pictures and also sent message when she need to adjust food or clean our dogs ears. We have other booking with Gloria. We both can't wait to see her and her Husband again. Tamera & Roy Mlakar ( Daisy and Char)

Great very clean house. They allowed our fur baby to sleep on a bed. She came back happy. Gloria continued to send pictures a few times throughout each day. I never saw our dog and their dog playing but I’m guessing they did. If they are willing to watch our dog again I will use them next time.

Great experience with Gloria A. Our little Maltese, Bailey seemed very well-adjusted when we picked him up today. In fact, he even ate his food, which is very rare with a new Petsitter. I would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs. 😉

Schedule

Since I’m not currently working, I have the time, energy, and full attention to dedicate to the pets I care for. My day revolves around their needs: scheduled meals, relaxing walks, brushing, cleaning, playtime, and, most importantly, love. I’m always present to notice any changes in their behavior, mood, or health. I make sure they not only receive basic care, but also emotional attention and constant companionship. I love creating a calm, clean, and loving environment where they feel safe, relaxed, and at home. Your pet won’t just be a guest—they’ll be part of my home and heart for as long as they’re with me.

Safety, trust & environment

At my home, pets enjoy a spacious, peaceful environment with plenty of room to relax and play. I have a large backyard and garden where they can safely explore, and I live in a gated community with beautiful green areas perfect for calm, supervised walks. Whether I’m caring for pets at my house or visiting a client’s home, I focus on creating a routine that’s familiar, comforting, and respectful of each pet’s needs. I stick to their usual schedules, provide gentle grooming when needed, and make sure they feel loved, safe, and never alone.

A typical day

Every pet has their own personality, and I love discovering what makes them wag their tail or purr with joy! I adapt to each one, but some of our favorite activities include: – Relaxing walks through the green areas of my neighborhood – Gentle playtime in my backyard with toys and lots of praise – Quiet cuddle sessions for senior pets who prefer calm affection – Brushing time as a bonding moment, not just grooming – Mental stimulation games like treat puzzles or scent games – And of course... belly rubs, ear scratches, and sweet conversations (yes, I talk to them!) I make sure each pet feels engaged, loved, and completely at ease—whether they’re full of energy or just want a cozy nap buddy.

Before caring for any pet, I like to learn as much as possible about their personality, routines, likes and dislikes, special needs, and any health or behavioral concerns. Knowing this in advance helps me create a safe, smooth, and loving experience for your pet. Every animal is unique, and I want to make sure I respect their rhythm and give them the care they’re used to—whether that means a special diet, favorite toy, quiet time, or extra cuddles. Communication is key, and I truly value the trust you place in me.
