Safety, trust & environment

If you tell me your dog loves to eat its meals with a human sitting on the floor with him, that's what I'll do. I have spoon fed many dogs in my 10 years as a professional pet care specialist. If your dog is used to sleeping in bed with her humans, she gets to sleep in bed with this human, too! My goal: make your dog feel as if nothing has changed, other than the human, in his home.

Information Staci G. would like to know about your pet

I prefer when owners leave detailed instructions explaining EVERYTHING about their dogs - favorite spots to lay in the house; favorite treats; favorite shows to have on the TV; favorite spot in the yard to do their tinks and stinks; and all the specific details and quirks about their dogs. I want all the information and tools necessary to make sure their routines are as close to normal as possible.

A typical day

Whatever your dogs love to do, we'll do together. Is their normal routine to have walkies in the morning before breakfast - then that's what they get to do. Do they enjoy running around the yard chasing balls, or getting sprayed with the garden hose - then that's what we'll do. What I do with them is completely dependent on what you, the pet parent, tells me about your beloved fur baby.

This was our first time leaving our dogs with a sitter and also the longest we had ever been away from them, so we were understandably a little nervous. Our dogs can be very anxious and reactive around new people, but by the end of her stay they absolutely loved Staci. Staci was incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and proactive throughout the entire time we were away. She kept a close eye on anything that seemed even slightly out of the ordinary and always kept us informed. We especially appreciated the many photos and updates she sent each day, which gave us tremendous peace of mind while we were traveling. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our dogs and their well-being. We came home to two happy, comfortable pups, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would highly recommend Staci to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter.
