Safety, trust & environment

I currently live in a dorm and am therefore unable to bring your pet into my living space, but am willing to use my car to transport your dog(s)!

Information Gabriella W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know your pet's energy level so I can make sure everything we do is within their comfort zone! Additionally, if your pet has any potentially challenging behavior (anxiety, leaky bladder, etc.), I am able to work with that! Just make sure to let me know beforehand.

A typical day

I like to make sure dogs get outside for a good walk or run (depending on their energy level!), or maybe just a car ride with the windows down if they need a more relaxed activity. I am always ready for a good game of fetch and a nice brush if they need some extra love!

She did great with our anxious dog! Gabriella was very communicative and provided good care to our dog during our wedding weekend.

I can’t recommend Gabriela enough! She helped me out on very short notice, and I’m so grateful she was available. My dog can be a handful—he’s big (around 100 pounds) and very affectionate—but she handled him with so much patience and confidence. It’s clear she really understands dogs, especially larger breeds, and knows how to manage their energy while still giving them the love and attention they need. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. If you’re looking for someone reliable, knowledgeable, and genuinely great with dogs, Gabriela is the one!

Gabriella (Bella) is amazing. She watched our pets several times while we were out of town. We have multiple cats and 2 older dogs, including a special needs cat. She was always was on time, got their food and meds right every time, and spent quality time with each of them every day. She washed their food bowls and made sure all water bowls were filled. When she had a question while we were gone, she didn’t hesitate to contact us - which is exactly what I wanted. Bella is experienced, responsible, and caring. I was able to enjoy my time away knowing she was taking care of my pets.
