Pet lover, friend, and former owner

Pet care experience

The first 18 years of my life, I had 4 fish, a turtle, 2 chickens, 2 dogs, and 4 cats. I have previously helped friends acclimate with their rescue dogs, dog and house sit my bestie’s elderly doggies, my sister has snakes and bearded dragons I care for when her family is out of town, and I’ve never met an animal that didn’t like me. Unfortunately, I am not in a place to have pets of my own, so I like to live vicariously through others to scratch my missing-pets itch 😁

Penny was fantastic! I will definitely be asking her to stay with my furbabies again!

Penny followed all instructions and made sure my cat was well looked after during my travels. I will rebook with her in the future.

Penny is great! She was able to get my very shy and skiddish dog to snuggle and relax during her check in visit. So glad I found her to help out. I feel very comfortable letting her take care of my baby and appreciate her so much!

Penny was great. Sent a couple pictures and was responsive to messages. Samantha looked happy with her. :)

Safety, trust & environment

I adjust to the environment pets are used to. Are your pets on a schedule/routine? Happy to follow it! Do your pets need meds or a bath? No problem, just point me in the direction of what they’re used to in your home and I am happy to oblige :)

Information Penny G. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has special commands, needs, routines, or idiosyncrasies that would be helpful to know. If they have a favorite toy or park or walk path, I would love to know that too!

A typical day

I like to follow the lead of their home/parents. What’s a normal routine for your pet? What do they like to do? I would much rather stick with what your pet knows and loves than try something new and it end badly (but if you want us to try something new, we can do that too!)

I own a business operations consulting firm, so exclusively work remotely from home. My schedule is pretty flexible throughout the day, and I’m trying for be more intentional about actually going out into the world - ha! My daily and weekly schedules are quite conducive to pet care outside of my home office!
