Pet care experience
I am hard of hearing I love animals including dogs and cats as well. I have dog sat for Pitbulls, Boxers, German Shepard, Labs, Cocker Spaniel, and Pugs. I have also taken care of cats. Every time I meet a new dog/cat I start building different connections with each one of them. We will have a blast together from walking, to cuddling, and playing outside. I like going for walks when the weather permits. Hopefully I can build a connection with your dog as well! Why I love dog sitting I have always loved dogs and cats. I grew up with different dogs such as PitBulls, Boxers, Pugs, Bichons, and Chihuahuas. My experience administering medication Yes. I have given eye drops, ear drops, and both Chewable and Swallow pills.
Reviews
Gabby was wonderful! She watched my two dogs over the Thanksgiving holidays. I had to find a pet sitter last minute and she was so wonderful and accommodating!! I have one small rescue dog that is very timid and one crazy Weimaraner who suffers from separation anxiety so they are a hand full sometimes but Gabby is definitely a dog lover and a pet sitting professional. She had no problem hitting it off with them right away and adapting to both of their different personalities and needs. :) Gabby sent pictures and updates since I too, suffer from separation anxiety from my babies! We came home to two spoiled rotten dogs and a sweet note from Gabby about the stay. I will definitely use Gabby again for future trips!!
Gabby did a great job. Dog seemed happy and relaxed when we came home after a long weekend. He might have been petted too much, because he seems to think I should sit around and pet him all day! Just kidding -- we all know there is no such thing as too much petting! Gabby kept us updated with texts and pictures each day. And we came home to a clean house and a note about her stay.
Gabby recently stayed at my house and watched Lucy, my Lab/Shepherd mix while I was away on vacation. Lucy isn't very good around new people, but Gabby stuck with it and after a few days had Lucy on her side. Gabby kept me informed of how Lucy was doing and sent me pictures as well. I would highly recommend Gabby to take care of your dog.
Gabby is an wonderful person with a gentle kind spirited soul. She has an huge heart for animals. I have had her stay with my dog Rex and he LOVES HER, just loves her and is always sad when she has to go home. Gabby can be trusted for a long amount of time with your pets, overnights or for hours. She's highly recommended by me. I have also had a friend reach out personally to me for Gabby to sit her dog for a while. Gabby does well taking my dogs out for a walk and picking up their business. She also washes their food bowls so you come home to clean fresh doggy bowls. Gabby will play and cuddle with your baby as if you were there, she will live your routine so your baby doesn't get confused while you are away. She will spoil your baby when you aren't home (that's why my dog IS SAD when she leaves him!!) I can tell you she will keep you updated daily with photos, videos and text messages or emails so you won't worry. She responded to me quick as she could when I was worried about being away from my Dog. If I had to go away again, I would hire Gabby if she were free to doggy sit my baby. She is one to trust with your pets. PS** I have four cats, they warmed up to her fairly quickly and loved her too, Gabby is THAT wonderful!!
