About Gia

I've always been an animal lover, and started rescue work at the age of 7 with my first parrot. I have owned several large dogs (labs, golden retrievers, german shepherds, boxers, beagles), and trained many others for friends and family, as well as worked with horses at the RDA for a while.

During covid, I fostered several cats, and later adopted one as well. I'm currently at home full time for the next few months, so my time is quite flexible. I miss my golden, who lives abroad with my family now, and would love to spend some time with your furbabies!

I am able to brush/clip nails/shampoo and fluff if required. I can help with wound care / oral meds, but not injections. I live ~200m walk from 2 vet clinics, in case of any emergencies.

For dogs, I'm happy to walk and spend time with your furbaby, but I'm unable to board them.

My own cat is quite a needy little baby, so I am unfortunately not available for overnight pet sitting at your home.

Gia took very good care of my cat while i was away on a weekend trip. I would highly recommend Gia as a cat sitter. :)

Skills

Specific Skills

I speak English & Other
+20 years of experience
Familiar with dog training techniques
My experience is mostly with large dogs, some rescued and some trained from puppyhood. I’ve volunteered with Hope Dog Rescue in the past to care for senior /disabled dogs and help with adoption drives. I’ve fostered a few rescue cats since covid, and adopted one of them myself. One young kitten was extremely malnourished and pregnant at the time we found her, so involved caring for her after her spay operation to ensure her survival and helping her get adopted off to a good furever home. I also helped with neighbourhood cat rescue and feedings for a few years in my previous neighbourhood. I’ve moved back to River Valley since Jun 2023.
