Caring For Your Pup Like Family

First of all, Hello! I’m Gabriel, and I’ve been a lifelong dog lover with years of experience providing exceptional care for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. While I didn’t grow up with dogs in my own household, my dad had two dogs, and I spent a lot of time with friends who had dogs. Growing up, I often helped take care of their pets, whether it was going for walks, playing, or just offering companionship. These experiences helped me develop a deep understanding of what it takes to care for dogs and build strong, trusting relationships with them. Though my background with dogs didn’t start in my own home, I’ve had the privilege of caring for dogs of various breeds and temperaments over the years. From puppies to senior dogs, I understand how to provide tailored care based on each dog’s unique needs. I live in a dog friendly home with a spacious, fenced in yard where your dog can run, play, and explore safely. Inside, I ensure there’s plenty of room for your dog to relax, and I always supervise them, ensuring they are never left alone for long periods. I’m available to care for your dog on both weekdays and weekends, offering flexible drop offs and pick ups to accommodate your schedule. (Please note that currently I cannot dog sit at my current location due to construction, however, I’m more than happy to dog sit at your place if needed). I’m passionate about giving every dog the love, patience, and attention they need. Whether it’s offering extra cuddle time, managing medication, or providing enjoyable walks, I make sure your dog feels at home and well cared for. If your dog has any special needs, such as medication, specific routines, or anxiety, I’m happy to accommodate. I’ve gained a lot of experience with dogs of all types, so I’m prepared to handle any unique situation with care and professionalism. I’m committed to offering a safe and loving environment for your dog, ensuring they feel comfortable and well cared for. If you’re looking for a responsible, compassionate, and experienced dog caregiver, I’d love to connect and discuss how I can meet your dog’s needs. I treat every dog as if they were part of my own family, giving them the same love, care, and respect I’d want for my own. You can feel confident knowing your pet will get the same attention and affection they’re used to at home. I also treat your home with the same level of respect, always aiming to leave it just as I found it, or even better, so you can return to a happy pet and a worry free space. If this sounds like a good fit, feel free to message me, and we can confirm the details of your booking. Let me know if you’re ready to give your pet a great experience while getting to know me! 😊

Safety, trust & environment

Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are my top priorities when caring for pets in my home or yours. I ensure that all pets feel safe, secure, and loved, whether they are staying with me or being cared for in their own home. In my home, I provide a pet friendly environment with plenty of space for your dog to roam and play. I have a fenced yard and offer supervision at all times to ensure your pet's safety. Inside, I maintain a clean and cozy space where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I take extra steps to avoid any hazards and ensure that your dog is always protected. For pet care in your home, I focus on creating a calm and secure routine that matches your dog’s needs. I follow all your instructions to maintain consistency and make your dog feel as at ease as possible. Whether it’s administering medication, sticking to meal times, or offering playtime and walks, I’m committed to giving your pet the best care while maintaining your home’s safety. Above all, I build trust with both the pets and their owners. I make sure to stay in constant communication, keeping you updated with pictures or messages so you know your dog is being well taken care of.

Gabriel was amazing!! The dogs were happy and obviously very well taken care of while we were gone. The house was exactly like we left it. We will certainly book him again!

We were thankful to find Gabriel to stay with our senior husky in our home. Our dog does best with a consistent schedule and a person nearby. Gabriel was home most of the time which helped our dog be very relaxed while we were away. We appreciated the daily photos and communication. Gabriel also did a great job taking care of the house.

We had a great experience with Gabriel! He took such wonderful care of our dogs and house! It was clear the dogs were comfortable and well cared for, and he kept us updated which we really appreciated. He was also very flexible with our timing, which made everything so much easier. On top of that, we came home to a house that was honestly cleaner than we left it. We would absolutely trust him with our dogs again and highly recommend him!

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to provide continuous attention and care for the pets I look after. My daily routine is designed around ensuring your dog gets all the love, exercise, and care they need, while I’m also able to focus on my work. Whether it's taking breaks to walk the dogs, providing playtime in the yard, or just offering a cozy spot for them to relax, I can be fully present throughout the day. Because I’m home, I’m highly flexible and can accommodate different schedules, whether it’s for walks, meals, medication, or any special care instructions you may have. I make it a priority to cater to your dog’s specific needs, offering them the same attention and affection I’d give my own pet. Your dog will always be supervised and never left alone for extended periods. With my home setup, your dog will feel right at home, getting plenty of interaction and a comfortable environment to relax in. I’m dedicated to providing a safe and loving space for your pet to feel secure and happy while you’re away.

It’s really important for me to know about any special needs, preferences, or behaviors your pet may have ahead of time so I can provide the best care possible. Please let me know if your dog has any health conditions, dietary restrictions, or if they require medication so I can ensure their routine stays consistent. If they have specific fears or anxieties, I’d love to hear about them as well so I can make their time with me as comfortable and stress free as possible. I also appreciate learning about your dog's typical energy level, favorite activities, and how they interact with other pets or people. This helps me tailor playtime and walks to suit their personality. My preference is for breeds that are well socialized and enjoy being around others, but I’m open to all breeds and happy to accommodate different temperaments. The more I know about your pet’s routine and personality, the better care I can provide. I want your dog to feel right at home while they’re with me!
