I am responsible and reliable with excellent communication and a thoughtful approach to work. I ensure you are comfortable, and I’ll anticipate your needs.

Ginger was awesome. She was so good with our kitties. We had our former pet sitters for 15 years until they retired. Our cats loved her; they were very content and happy when we got home. We loved her texts and pictures. We are glad to have found her.

Ginger came and took extremely good care of all of my fur babies. One of them is disabled and she had no problem dealing with her whatsoever. Will always reach out to Ginger to watch my babies.

Ginger was fantastic with my three cats. She came everyday at the same time, which was very important as my male kitty needed medication. She spent time with them and sent images daily, a thoughtful gesture that helped keep my mind at ease! I have found my per sitter!

She was fantastic! She kept me updated and sent me pictures daily! She also stayed awhile and played with my 8 cats. My kitties loved her company. She completed everything I asked for. If you're looking for a pet sitter choose her! Highly recommend

Ginger was by far the best care giver for our 2 cats. We had some health issues come up with our cats and Ginger was the best and made us feel at ease while we were away.
