I'll run with your dog.
Pet care experience
I grew up with a family dog, got my own puppy when I was three, and helped take care of a diabetic senior dog in high school. In college I was the VP of a campus volunteer group that worked with the local human society to raise money, help find foster families, and take weekly trips with other students to volunteer. I just finished grad school in Savannah and moved back to Houston to find a job. I'm pretty active and have a flexible schedule, so I am available during the day. I love going on hikes and running with my dog early in the morning, before it gets too hot outside. My dog is very dog friendly and loves having playmates who can keep up with her. To work with the humane society, I had to qualify in doggy CPR and am familiar with administering dog medications, including insulin shots.
Reviews
Gabriela is an incredibly passionate and loving pet owner, animal shelter volunteer, and friend. She truly cares about every dog, pet and owner she meets. She has both rescued and fostered pets, done extended and short term dog sitting and has consistently shown a natural bond and instinct when it comes to caring for animals.
Gabriela is a fantastic and loving dog caregiver because she understands the gentle souls that our pets possess! She is very intuitive with animals and can recognize all of the emotions within dogs by doing one simple thing--she "listens" to them! She will be a fantastic dog caregiver and has taken care of our pups in the past--I trust everything about her!
Gabriela did a wonderful job with our dog. He was a 75 pound blind sweetheart with diabetes. She was very efficient at giving his shots, feeding him, and walking him to help with potty time. We also had a King Charles Cavalier who she helped take care of for many years. We always trusted our fur babies to her care without worry.
Gabriela is the best! She watches my dog like he was her own. She send me pictures of their adventures together and she even taught my pup some tricks! I’ve always felt safe leaving my dog with her and I’ll continue to use her for dog sitting in the future. Thanks Gabriela!
