Dog-lover in Glendale/La Cañada!

Pet care experience

I'm an animal-loving freelancer who works from her cozy home in Glendale! I grew up with dogs of all different breeds and sizes. Dogs are an absolute joy and I can't get enough of their energy and affection! As a dog mom myself, I know how important it is to know your baby is in good hands while you're away. I am comfortable taking care of dogs of all personalities, and am very gentle, loving and patient with them. My dog Mochi also happens to be the most patient, gentle and friendly pup there is! He's a sweet shih-poo who I rescued three years ago in Studio City! We love to take long walks through the neighborhood, or enjoy a day at Lacy Park. (It's the only park in LA I've found with green, luscious grass!) We also love to hike, so if your dog enjoys that type of activity, we can certainly schedule that in during his or her visit! I would LOVE to take care of your dog and make them feel safe and special while you're away. All rooms in my home are open, especially for cuddling! Dogs sleep in bed with me if they enjoy that. The more snuggle time, the better! Mochi doesn't mind sharing the bed. :) I have experience with giving medicine to dogs as well. Not a problem for me. I also have a very flexible and open schedule, thanks to working from home. I look forward to meeting your pup!

Gabriela was a lifesaver when I needed a last minute pet sitter for the day! Prior to her I had never used Rover and I was relieved that she responded so quickly and made the whole process easy! She also sent me a pic during the day after she walked my dog. Would definitely use her again! :)

Gabriela was great! she responded to our last minute request and took care of Mabel for the day. She even brought her to the park for some exercise and play time with her dog!

Gabriela is the sweetest, kindest, most caring dog sitter I have ever met. She is both thoughtful and patient when it comes to every single type of dog. Any dog is lucky to meet and be under the care of Gabriela; she looks after them as her own. She is absolutely wonderful and her spacious home is always clean and pet friendly.

Information Gabriela F. would like to know about your pet

I'd love to know how comfortable your dog is with physical touch, music etc and if there's anything they need to feel even more cozy and comfortable. I'd also like to know what level of physical activity they need and what kind of activities they enjoy.

A typical day

Hikes are one of my favorite activities to do with pups. A great way to get away from the hustle and bustle and quiet down in nature. Griffith is my favorite. I also love long walks around NoHo and trips to my favorite park in the hills, Lake Hollywood Park. I love that it's one of the few dog parks that has grass and lots of space to roam!
