Certified positive dog trainer

Pet care experience

I aim to help people strengthen their bond with their dog. Positive based training with guidance is the key. From crate training puppies to polite leash manners. I have a cuddly 120lb rottweiler that is very well behaved and gentle living downstairs. For daycare and boarding I use the whole 2nd floor apartment of the 2 flat building my wife and I own. There are multiple rooms and gates to separate pups that don't know each other well. There are 23 stairs from the 2nd floor to the back yard, smaller dogs (up to 50 lbs) can be carried, so plenty of exercise to go out and potty. In addition to yard time, walks for are included. Contact me for info on what I require (vet records, etc.) Everything is negotiable.

Gabriel was a savior. He took Lula last minute over Christmas. When I came to pick her up she didn't want to leave! She was happily chilling on the couch as happy as a dog can be. They even got a big mat to help her anxiety with slippery floors. I would definitely bring her back to Gabriel.

Gabriel and his boarding set up are both awesome! He clearly is super passionate about dogs and training and care. Will totally book again. Thank you!

Gabriel was great with our Bella. She is the sweetest needy pup. She is a 5 year-old Black Lab and hates being alone. If I leave the room she beats me to where I am going. This was her first over night stay away from home when we were still at home. It was a trial run for all of us. She stayed at Pet Smart twice before and came home depressed the last time. It took days to get her to realize we were not leaving her again. We were away for too many days for her liking. Gabriel took great care of Bella. He kept us updated with info and pictures. She looked relaxed and happy. I was really worried at first and Then I was so happy it was going so well. Gabriel made her feel safe and comfortable. He knew just how to interact with her. She came home her happy self. It was so nice because when Bella is sad everyone in the house is sad. Bella will definitely be going back to see Gabriel for a stay the next time we need to leave home. I think they may become friends. Now I do not have to feel tied to my home anymore. It’s great to know we have someone we can trust to take care of our baby. Thank you Gabriel.

Highly reccomend this sitter for your pets. He was very proactive with pics, which put our minds at ease. I will most definitely book with Gabriel whenever he is available.
