Hi there! I’m Gina — a lifelong educator, devoted mom, and enthusiastic house and pet sitter with a heart for connection and care. I’ve spent the past 25 years teaching elementary school, where I’ve honed my skills in organization, empathy, and joyful living. I’m originally from Los Angeles and now split my time between the Bay Area and the Central Coast, often visiting my two incredible daughters (ages 21 and 23) in Santa Monica and Santa Barbara. I find peace and inspiration near the ocean, and love spending time cooking, reading, swimming, shopping (a little guilty pleasure!), and exploring new places. Whether I’m curled up with a good book or discovering a new coastal trail, I bring a sense of warmth and attentiveness to every space I enter. I also share life with Buster — my brilliant, charming, and very vocal corgi-Jack Russell mix. He’s a seasoned traveler and a true character, always ready to make new friends (human or furry). I treat every home with the same care and respect I give my own, and I genuinely enjoy creating a calm, secure environment for pets while their humans are away. I’d be honored to help you feel confident and relaxed while you travel, knowing your home and beloved animals are in loving hands. |
