gabi can care for
Availability
I'm currently on summer break, which allows me to care for pets full-time and maintain a very flexible schedule throughout the week. My only regular commitment is attending virtual classes in the evenings, so outside of that, your pets are my main priority. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting while ensuring your animals receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while you're away.

Safety, trust & environment
Pet care is already a major part of my daily routine. With my own dogs, I start the day around 8:30–9:00 a.m. with a walk and breakfast. They go outside again around noon, get another walk in the afternoon around 3–4 p.m., eat dinner around 7:00 p.m., and go out again before a final walk around 11:00 p.m. Throughout the day, I spend time playing with them and providing enrichment to keep them happy and mentally stimulated. When caring for a client's pet, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine and following all care instructions closely. With seven years of pet-sitting experience, three years of fostering, and experience administering medication to both dogs and cats, I'm comfortable caring for pets with a variety of needs and personalities. I pay close attention to behavior, ensure pets are safe and comfortable, and provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands.
Information gabi a. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pets have any special needs I need to accommodate. Any key words you use to get them to behave would be great to know!
A typical day
Every pet is different, so I like to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. For dogs, that usually means walks, lots of playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I love playing fetch, tug-of-war, or just hanging out with them and keeping them company. For cats, I'm happy to play with their favorite toys, give them attention if they want it, or simply let them relax and come to me on their own terms. No matter the pet, I'll make sure they're well cared for, comfortable, and having fun while you're away.

Pet care experience
I grew up with a Golden Retriever and a Boxer, along with a grumpy cat. At present, we have Kody (a red fox Labrador) and Alfie (a mix of various breeds). I’ve been walking, loving, and feeding dogs all my life. Other areas of my experience include walking and dog-sitting for my neighbors' dogs for about 5 years. During COVID, my family started fostering various types of dogs, which has undoubtedly increased my experience with a diverse range of breeds and ages. While I have the most experience with larger dogs over 60 pounds, I also love my smaller furry friends!
