Pet care experience

I live in Naperville, One of the first jobs that I took up while I was in high school was working at a Kennel. One of my primary roles was as a dog walker, but also play with them especially in a style that the owner preferred. This was a time where I really found out that I enjoyed spending time with dogs. Since then I have always had my doors open for friends and family members to bring their dog over while they go on vacation or business trips. There are so many breeds but regardless if they were the same or not each one is unique in its own way. I enjoyed the challenge of getting to know how each individual one behaved. I've loved the experience of walking, playing, caring, and just overall getting to know that specific pet. Finding out about this website was a cool way for me to potentially further my experience and passion to other people's pets! We do live in an apartment complex with a balcony, but there are many fields, and trails nearby. Personally my dog is of lower energy so I take mine for a walk 2 times a day and another time out front. If your dog is of high energy or you just prefer that I take him out to play with him or fetch I will do that. I do work 8am to 5pm mon-fri, and saturdays 9am-12pm

We cannot thank Gabe enough for being so willing to dog sit our husky on a short notice. He sent us pictures throughout our dog's stay which really helped us because we missed her so much! Gabe took such great care of Princess and was very patient with her. She can be a handful sometimes but he handled her perfectly! We definitely recommend him to anyone and will be using him again for our dog sitting needs. Thanks again, Gabe!

Gabe is awesome with our pup. My pup loves being with him. We have boarded with him twice and great experience both times. Highly recommend Gabe!

Gabe did an excellent job watching my german shepherd puppy! She can be quite a handful (as most puppies are) and he was happy to spend the day/evening with her. Gabe was extremely accommodating, and kept my active puppy safe and happy. He gave her lots of walks, playtime, and love, making her one happy girl. I might add his dog is a sweetheart as well! I received a lot of updates and pictures throughout her stay as well, which I loved! I highly recommend anyone looking for an excellent dog sitter to give Gabe a try - you won't be disappointed!

As a family friend, Gabe has always been a an excellent carer of our 2 dogs whenever we went out for vacation. I have no doubt he can bring that same type of care to other dogs as well.

Information Gabe O. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any breed preferences. I would like to know in general how your dog behaves around other dogs. Do certain actions make them aggressive? How do they behave with loud noises (i.e fireworks, thunder). If they are scared/angry, is there anything you typically do to console them?

A typical day

We do live in an apartment complex, but every 2-4 hours I would be more than happy to take it along the field, or trail nearby. If it is okay with you, I do not mind traveling to nearby parks. I am still young and full of energy so i can definitely run with your dog! If your dog allows I can also play fetch with him/her. Let me know what type of activities your dog enjoys the most!
