Compassionate, Reliable Sitter

Pet care experience

I have loved and cared for dogs my entire life. They add so much joy to our lives, and they deserve the love, care, and respect that we deserve as humans. They simply make the world a better place! I’ve had plenty of experience with pups and can’t wait to continue working with them. I know that communication is the key to making sure that both pups and owners are well taken care of. I always make it a point to check in with parents on a daily basis and let them know how their pup is getting along, what we’ve done during the day, and what we plan to do tomorrow. I love to send pics and videos as well, so you can tag along on our adventures. Since no one likes to be away from their best friend for very long, I’ll do everything that I can to make sure you feel comfortable during the stay. That extends to pups as well! I love to know ahead of time what your pup’s favorites are. It’s great to know if there are places they’re used to going or favorite chew toys, since bringing those elements into a stay makes everything a lot easier on your pooch. I’m a big fan of positive praise and affirmation, and will make sure that our stay is full of love and happiness. I have a deep respect and compassion for animals, so your pup will be in good hands no matter what. I also like to make sure that we get as much exercise as possible. Not many pups like to be cooped up all day, so we’ll do our best to get out and about whenever we can. I have a ‘dog workout’ that I like to do specifically for when I walk with pups. When it’s their walk, it’s all about them!

Nancy is awesome and I will definitely ask her to help me out again when the need arises. I have 2 dogs of my own and a 3rd foster dog. I needed dog walking help because I was also dog-sitting for friends who adopted a bonded pair of my former foster dogs, so I had 5 dogs to take care of for a week. I handled three of the dogs on the walks, and Nancy handled the other two. She was on time everyday and rolled with all of the craziness that ensued! We had great conversations and exchanged lots of stories and ideas on our outings. It was a very pleasant experience and I was grateful for her help!

Nancy's has exceptional work ethic and moral character, which translates into a top notch human whom would make a valuable assets to any company. Nancy is the best of the best!

Nancy is the most loving and compassionate dog sitter you could hope for. She loved my Salsa girl (8 year old Boxer) so much and gave her so much love and attention. Salsa would look forward to visits from Nancy who was always ready to love on her and play with her. She's one of the biggest dog lovers that I've ever known and has been a dog owner all of her life so she understands the needs of a dog missing his or her owner better than anyone. Nancy is incredibly responsible and has a great work ethic. Ann P.

Information Nancy G. would like to know about your pet

Some things I like to learn ahead of time: Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? What’s the best way to spoil your pup?

A typical day

I’m happy to meet any pooch at their activity level. Whether your pup loves to get out and about or is a bit more on the easygoing side, our stay will be all about what they’re comfortable with. I typically find that it’s best to frequent the places that your pup is most familiar with, but I’m always up for an adventure too! Whether that be their favorite dog park, walks around the neighborhood, getting to socialize with other pups, we’ll have a great time together. During our down time, we’ll make sure to get plenty of cuddle time in. An abundance of belly rubs are always a staple of any stay!
