I love Dogs more then I like people

Hi! I’m an athlete with a deep love and commitment to dogs. When I’m not on the mats training, I’m home giving my full attention to the pups in my care. I’ve spent the last few years boarding and personally training dogs. My current dog is extremely well-trained and helps me create a calm and balanced environment for your pet to feel safe and at ease. My home features a large, fully enclosed yard surrounded by a tall white fence where dogs have plenty of space to run, play, and enjoy the outdoors. I also have a dedicated indoor space where pups can cool off, nap, and have a cozy place to wind down. Dogs in my care have access to both indoor and outdoor areas throughout the day. I specialize in reading canine body language and understanding what makes each dog feel fulfilled, stimulated, and happy. Whether it’s high-energy exercise, structured walks, or quiet companionship, I meet your dog where they’re at. I stay active with every dog I host—mentally and physically—and I’m happy to provide basic reinforcement and structure when needed. I’m also very flexible with timing, understand the stress of travel plans, and aim to make everything smooth for you. All I ask is for clear communication so I can plan around my training schedule and give your pet the best possible experience. Whether you’re looking for a safe spot for your dog to stay, or someone who truly treats your pet like family, I’m here to help. I look forward to caring for your pup like they’re my own!

Gabriel has been amazing in taking care of my dog when I was out of town. Dropped him with no hassels and while pickup he was happy. Thanks for the care!

Wilbur has stayed with Gabriel 4-5 times, each time, Gabriele is very conscientious, knowledgeable about the behavior of dogs, and very trustworthy. He takes great care of Wilbur the pug, and Wilbur gets good socialization with other dogs. Gabriel has a large fenced in yard for excess and play. Gabriel is the best, I highly recommend him. Dan

I left my Great Dane in Gabriel’s care for a week. She was well taken care of and had plenty of exercise and play time with other pups he was looking after. We loved seeing the video and photo updates Gabriel shared throughout the week. I would definitely recommend him and will definitely be using him to watch my dog in the future!

Gabe was awesome with our big guy! Our dog sensitive and absolutely giant and very slobbery so he’s not always everyone’s favorite client but Gabe made us feel comfortable and was very responsive and attentive.

Schedule

I am at home most the day and taking time to take care and play/train my dogs. The only times I step out are when I have a training session. I only leave for training on times where the dogs are all taken care of and tired out. When I arrive back home my attention gets right back into the dogs . Also the dogs are usually never at home alone even when I step out and have a camera access at all times .

Safety, trust & environment

For the outside I have an all around fence gated home with a huge yard space perfect for high energy dogs. Inside the house I have room where the dogs spend the night. The room has a dog door leading to inside or outside access for during the day, as well as a gate separating the open space from the inside kitchen and access to other areas of the house . The inside dog room and the entire yard has a camera system, so dogs are can be monitored at all times.

Pets

A typical day

Dogs get up around 7 am, are brought outside to use the bathroom area . Then I give them physical exercise to tire them out and get all the built up energy from the sleep out early. This allows most dogs to behave better through the day Depending on the dog, l either bring them on a designated walk or I play with them outside in the enclosed yard area. After this point the dogs are all usually separated from one another to eat their first meal and a nap time . At around midday the dogs are brought back to get some more exercise . Either I initiate play or bring the dog on his or hers second walk After that I usually address any of the dogs need if it’s still active with a form of mental stimulation (walking, treats, training etc) At around 4 More exercise is done to dogs that needed, dogs will have access to stroll around the yard at any time or nap inside. Usually (even high energy dogs) at this point begin to get into a more relaxed / resting faze after this session. 7 pm the dogs are fed, and closed inside the dog room After about and hr (when the food has calmed down in their stomach ) I let the dogs out in the yard to do their buisness before bed time At around 8/9 dogs are put into their organized sleep situations and closed inside the dog room for the night until the following morning .
