About Gloriana M.
Safety, trust & environment
I come with supplies and activities based on the sweet one’s needs and preferences! I have: - “Snifarri” supplies for cognitive games and scent games (great for bad weather days or tired senior animals!). - Fitness equipment and workouts so your pet can get some good exercise in even if it’s too hot for a walk! - Toys, treats, wagons, and leashes of all lengths to help animals engage in activities and learn new skills! My home: I have a large fenced backyard and screened porch for safe and secure off-leash outdoor time. Lots of carpets, yoga mats, and baby gates to keep senior animals from slipping and snacky animals from accessing trash cans. Lots of hiding spaces available for nervous cats and lots of windows available for curious ones. Very close to two parks that can be accessed by short walks or car rides with lots of trails, wildlife, and river access.
Information Gloriana M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know as many details of your pets routine as you can think of ! Especially if they have very particular needs and fears. I want to be as prepared as possible to give them the best experience I can!
A typical day
- Long or short hikes through the woods and along the river!(I have leashes of all lengths and multiple wagons for all levels of adventurers) - Sniffari’s to look for treats through obstacle courses for cognitive enrichment. - Gentle rehabilitative exercises for low impact strength and confidence building. - Training sessions to have fun and burn energy while learning new skills! - Lots of cuddles and uninterrupted rest!

Reviews
Glori took wonderful care of my dog Zeus. She is very conscientious about meeting an individual dog’s needs and setting them up for success. I used a lot of mental stimulation exercises she used with Zeus at home! The best part was the complete relief I had leaving him with her. He loved her and it showed and having that piece of mind means the world. Zeus was older and had specific needs and medications and she excelled at taking care of him and enriching his days with her. Glori wholeheartedly cares for dogs and cats in her care. It’s evident in how much they love her and that is truly priceless. I have no reservations in recommending Glori to care for any furbaby.
Glori is wonderful with our pup! He gets so excited every time he sees her. She has watched him in her home, and we always know he’s in the best hands. Glori is very attentive during his stay, giving him plenty of walks, cuddles, and playtime. She also incorporates games that provide mental stimulation, like sniffaris, which he loves. He always comes home tired, happy, and well cared for. She’s very knowledgeable about dog behavior and so kind and patient. Beyond her pet sitting, Glori has also helped us with mobility training for our pup and cared for him during a family event, handling everything seamlessly so we could enjoy having him at the event while still being fully present with our guests. We’re so grateful to have found her!
Glori is the best and I highly recommend her as a pet sitter. She has cared for our pup Millie weekly for nearly 7 months. Millie has special needs and Glori is consistently patient, kind, gentle and loving with her, even when Millie is grumpy and growls. Glori always sends pictures and provides feedback after her visits. Glori is reliable and timely and we are so grateful to have her in our lives!
