Pet care experience

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Gloria is a very kind and friendly person. When I first met her, I found her to be engaging, thoughtful, and genuinely interested in getting to know my cats. During her stay, she took the time to seek out one of my kitties who tends to hide until she’s comfortable with someone and gave both cats treats and playtime, which I really appreciated. It seems Gloria may still be gaining experience as a sitter, and with that in mind, I think she’ll continue to grow her skills over time. The main challenge during this stay was timing for the morning visits. I had requested that breakfast visits take place between 7:30 and 8:00 a.m., as my cats are always eager to eat at that time. Gloria’s visits were a bit later in the morning (around 10 a.m. and 12 p.m.) during the first two days. After I reached out on the second day, she kindly agreed to adjust and did arrive by 9:00 a.m. on one of the three remaining days. I also would have loved if she had given the kitties a bit of outdoor time in our enclosed courtyard, especially since she mentioned in her updates that they seemed interested in going outside. Overall, Gloria has a caring nature and a genuine love for animals. With a little more attention to timing, I believe she’ll continue to develop into a wonderful sitter. I wish her all the best as she continues to build her experience.
In the first 10 minutes of meeting this young lady we knew she was amazing! Anyone can go through the motions of feeding and instruction but it really takes a special individual who is tender, loving, compassionate, kind and wants to make that connection and build trust. “It’s someone who Cares deeply” Gloria is one in a million!! And will recommend her to everyone!
Gloria is so sweet! Sent lots of photo updates, we will absolutely use her again.
Very grateful for Gloria! You can tell she has such a love for animals. Seems like my boy and her had a great time together. Would definitely use her again!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have experience providing great pet care for all types of pets such as dogs, cats, and small animals. Daily walks with the right safety measures in place along with lots of play time and treats if allowed.
A typical day
I like to play fetch with the dogs as well as tug of war, take them out on walks. I also like to give them treats when they've been good on the walks as positive reinforcement.
