Doggy day care, walking and general dog adoration
Pet care experience
Dogs are life to me; I grew up with a Saluki in the United Arab Emirates, and I miss her dearly. I've run husky/Greenland dog sled teams in Estonia, worked in a dog rescue sanctuary in Spain and managed a pet boarding house in Leicester so I'm familiar with all aspects of looking after dogs (and cats!) - be it walking, cleaning, or just general adoration. I'm a law graduate from Northumbria University and I'm currently working full-time. However, three out of the five days a week are work-from-home so I've managed my job and the dogs in tandem with ease in the past. I live in a terraced house with a small yard, 5 minutes walk from Saltwell Park so I'm ideally placed for dogs of any shape and size. I also have a 15 month old golden retriever of my own, who is my pride and joy. Please don't hesitate to give me a message if you've got any questions 🙂
Reviews
My dog is usually very clingy, his a pug and he is my shadow. He was welcomed by Lyra the beautiful golden retriever and run in the house very happily. I was shocked to see him go from us so easily. I received updates to reassure me patrik the pug was happy and content. When I arrived home I checked on Rover and see some lovely photos of patrik being cared for and happy in the home. I would definitely use Gabi and Lyra again ti care for patrik. When in the area again. We can not thank you enough for the care and compassion you have shared with our pug patrik.
Dogs loved it. Were really chilled when got back home, usually they are quite anxious and clingy but they are normal. Highly recommended
Gabe has been amazing with our doggies! He is very friendly and knowledgeable about dogs. He has been super flexible when we've had to change the day for the walk. He has sent us photos and updates when walking and feeding our dogs which has been very reassuring for us. Ziggy and Kaya love him too! We would use Gabe's services again without a shadow of a doubt!

I have a fenced yard for bathroom breaks and Saltwell Park 5 mins walk away for exercise. My house is also big enough to accommodate larger dogs.

A typical day
It depends on the dog! Boundless energy means long walks and lots of playtime, but otherwise I try and work the schedule around the pet.

Availability
I work from home three days a week (flexible dates) so I’ll have plenty of time to look after your dog/cat in the meantime. They’ll be a welcome distraction!
