Experienced Care with tons of love
Pet care experience
I’m Gabriel. I've been around dogs my entire life and have yet to meet one that I don't adore. I love all types of dogs and am experienced in pet sitting and walking. I have a Cairn Terrier and cat at home and know how to train animals as well as ensure they have a positive interaction with others. Nothing brings me more joy than to bring a wag to a pup’s tail. I live in Valley Villiage across from the most glorious dog park in the city and go on almost daily dog hikes. With plenty of green grass, wide open streets, and fresh air galore, I’m confident your dog will love it just as much as I do. I live with my husband and our 7-year-old Terrier/Dachshund named Oliver. Both of them absolutely love dogs and other animals. People describe me as easy-going, responsible, and fun-loving. I grew up in the mountains with an eclectic mix of huskies and pugs. I volunteered for the San Francisco Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) and have been dog walking and sitting professionally for 6 years. I am a graduate student studying psychotherapy. I'm passionate about running, cooking, and working to help the LGBTQ community. I also have Type 1 diabetes, so if your pet needs insulin injections, I’ll know what to do. I’m also open to additional house-sitting services, if needed.
Reviews
We loved having Gabriel care for our often nervous pup. He was patient, attentive, timely and responsible. We will happily continue having him care for our pet in the future!
Gabriel loves dogs and my dog loves him. He has a passion for animals, and I would trust him with my pet's life. He is also friendly, responsive, prompt, and overall very pleasant to interact with. He met my dog in advance at a convenient time/location and they immediately bonded. I would highly recommend Gabriel for anyone interested in dog walking or sitting in the LA area
What an amazing sitter! I will be booking Gabriel EVERY TIME. He takes excellent care of my animals (dog and fish), sending me thoughtful updates and the cutest pictures. My dog got a lot of exercise and I felt 100% secure leaving him in Gabriel's care. He even left a toy at the end of his stay that my dog is in love with. What an amazing sitter! Highly highly recommend.
Awesome walker! Walked and played more than expected, and was able to feed dog upon return. 100% recommend Gabriel.

Information Gabriel C. would like to know about your pet
I don't discriminate on breed and have a mutt of my own. I would like spend some time with the pet before deciding whether to take him/her to the park, beach, or for a solo adventure. I would like to know about your dog’s exercise requirements, feeding schedule, and any health conditions they may have.
A typical day
I would like spend some time with your pet before deciding whether to take them to the park, beach, or out for a different adventure. I’ll be with your pet for all or most the day and will always make sure they get the attention they need! I will typically take 30-90 minutes a few times per day to play with your dog as well as feed them and take them outside to go to the bathroom. I will also take them for 60-90 minute walks each day. I will make sure your pet gets plenty of exercise, attention, petting, and positive reinforcement. Even though their favorite person isn’t with them, I make sure they're happy with a wagging tail until you return.
