CPR & First Aid trained pet lover

Pet care experience

Hello Everyone! We just moved to a new spacious apartment, currently only have the empty photos up, since we are still in the process of organizing furniture but uploaded those so you get an idea of our place. Our community is gated and very dog friendly, everybody has dogs in the building. I am originally from Hungary, now living in LA. I grew up in small village. My family and I always had lots of animals and pets around the house. So my love for animals started at a very young age. I have to say dogs make me really happy. Simple as that! I love taking care of them! > I have a Jack Russell Terrier. He is very well trained. He gets along great with small to medium size dogs therefore unfortunately cannot sit bigger dogs > your pup will get lots of attention and will probably have lots of fun with mine :) > if you dog is a bit on the asocial side, that is fine, mine can be that way too so they will leave each other alone . > I have a Furbo to check on them whenever they are left alone (of course they are in a separate space) > we walk the least 3-4 times a day, some longer and some shorter ones > they are allowed on furniture, unless you don't allow that at home, we are happy to keep that up > I can give oral medication and also shots, and completed a CPR and First Air training > I am familiar with common dangers (toxic foods dogs can't eat, bloating etc. we won't play right after eating to avoid twisted stomachs and so on) > we both have flexible schedules, so your pup won't be alone for long periods > flexible drop off and pick up > we have bowls for your pup > we have an extra bed if needed (although somehow most guests love to sleep in my pup's bed lol) > can arrange pick up and drop off, just let us know ( has an extra charge when you book) -------- What I possibly need from you -------- > what activities your pup likes and how active the pup is > what treats can be given ( I don't want to make them gain weight unnecessarily while here, usually, as mine, they can get some zucchini, little carrots, and 1-2 small treats a day) > we have a crate if needed so no need to bring one > bring a bed or blanket, it helps to feel at home quickly > bring any toys the pup might love to have here > please bring enough food, preferably some extra just in case > please let me know if your pup is really house trained > please let me know if you would like me to keep up any kind of training > message me before hand the instructions about feeding, usual daily schedules, any triggers etc. >please inform me of any health problems If you are looking for a dog walker in the Atwater/Glendale/Los Feliz area, feel free to message me! Looking forward to watching or walking your pup!:) I have a very flexible schedule so luckily I will be able to be here nearly all day with your pet and give them lots of love. We live in a dog friendly apartment building with a courtyard. Mindful of opening doors and aware of any toxic foods and plants. Let me know if you have questions!

Gabriella is the absolute best. Our pups love her and she’s their favorite. We’ve been asking for her help for years. She does so much to help us out and we are always grateful! She sends us pictures and gives us updates for each dog every time she assists. She goes out of her way to make sure the dogs are well cared for. Thank you Gabriella!!!

Gabriela is great with our very shy dog Parker. She keeps us updated and I know he is in good hands when he is staying with her. Thank you Gabriela!!!

Gabriela is our favorite pet sitter! She is very communicative and responsible. She always sends the cutest photos and our cats love her!! I highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies :)

My little Maverick has LOVED his stay(s) with Gabriela and her Hubby! They both made sure he had so much love while I was away, and kindly tended to his specific needs. Very seamless drop-off and pick-up, the street has free parking. Thank you so much, Gabriela!
