Pet care experience
I've been in love with animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with one cat (though his personality could honestly count for four), and convinced my parents to rescue three more after he had crossed the rainbow bridge. I helped my father in providing palliative care to him during his last hurrah, and also assisted in caring for one of the cats we adopted afterwards after he turned ended up being terminally ill with special needs, and have experience pilling both cats and dogs, and giving subcutaneous fluids, liquid, and topical medication to any kitties in your home who may need it.
Reviews
Gabriel was excellent! Highly recommend!
Gabriel took care of my dog while I was out of town. He was attentive and caring, and checked in often. He followed my instructions and communicated well. We love him!
Gabriel has been absolutely amazing. He’s given me peace of mind in a time of turbulence. He’s there on time and when you need you. He’s take great care of my pup 10/10 using him again.
We've been using Gabriel for almost a year now, he's very dependable. Great communication and very good with our cats they love him.

Safety, trust & environment
I have about 1 years' worth of professional experience working as a Kennel Technician at hospitals which also saw exotic animals, so I'd be happy to care for your bird, bunny, or lizard (along with many other species) if you'll have me! While I am much more accustomed to cats, I have learned so much in my experience working the kennel (especially during holiday season!) and am secure in my ability to provide the best care to all pets, no matter their species.
Information Gabriel Y. would like to know about your pet
I'd really appreciate it if you could ensure you have the following information prepared prior to booking: 1. Favorite toys/places to walk/types of play/places to be scratched/etc. 2. Energy level 3. Maintenance wanted done around the house while you're gone 4. Contact information for your veterinarian and name of animal hospital 5. Any special needs/symptoms/behaviors to watch out for? Does anything flare-up when anxious? Most recent vaccination records? 6. History of dog aggression/reactivity? Barrier aggression? Triggers? 7. Bite history?
A typical day
I am constantly taking pictures of my cats, as well as pets belonging to friends and family, and am happy to send update photos and videos while your baby is in my care! My favorite game to play with dogs is tug, but I don't mind giving my throwing arm a bit of a workout if your dog is more of a fetch enjoyer ☺️

Availability
I am currently pet-sitting and dog walking full time, so my schedule remains relatively open when it comes to caring for all kinds of pets! Please note that I currently have three weekly, recurring dog-walking clients (shout out to you all!) whose bookings I prioritize when it comes to scheduling new bookings. The walks are as follows: Sunday: 8 - 8:30 AM, 3 - 3:30 PM, 9 - 9:30 PM Monday: 1:30 - 2 PM Tuesday thru Thursday: 1:30 - 2 PM, 9 - 9:30 PM Friday: 1:30 - 2 PM Saturday: 3 - 3:30 PM, 9 - 9:30 PM I am also Jewish, and will take time off to observe the biggest Jewish holidays. The dates to keep in mind for 2024 are Passover Eve (past 12 PM on April 22), Rosh Hashanah (past 12 PM on October 2), Yom Kippur (past 12 PM October 11, and ALL DAY October 12), and Simchat Torah (ALL DAY October 24). I also observe other Jewish holidays, but am generally able to schedule bookings around and throughout them. Please feel free to reach out during Easter and Christmas, as I am all but guaranteed to be free on those days!
