My passion is animals!

Pet care experience

While your dogs and/or cats are in my care I will take care of them like they are my own! Taking care of animals is my passion and what I have spent the last couple year focusing on. I have been in the dog walking and sitting business for the last 6 years now. I also volunteer at a local rescue organization and foster dogs in my free time. In 2020 I attended Grooming School where I then went on to work as a full time groomer for a while. When it comes to house-sitting and entering your home I take privacy and respecting your space very seriously! I do not enter any of your spaces in the house that I do not need to, I do not have any guests over, and I always leave the house exactly how you left it if not cleaner when you return! While walking with your dog I have much experiences with all types of harnesses and walking tools. I know that not all dogs are as easy to take for a walk as others. If your dog is working on leash training that is definitely something I can continue helping your dog with. I have much experience with training in general. If you'd like to share your training methods that you are using with your dog currently I would be glad to continue training with your pup. Consistency is key! While your dogs and/or cats are in my care I will send you daily updates. Let you know everything is going great with your pets while you are away. All dogs are different and all dogs have different needs. Understanding your dogs and catering to their different needs and emotions is important to me. Puppy, adult, or senior. Small, medium, or large breed. Understanding their temperaments. Your dog(s) and cat(s) will be in great hands with me! Can't wait to meet your four legged friend!

We had Gaby stay at our house again with our fur family of 2 dogs and 2 cats while we were out of town and couldn’t be happier. The fam is happy, and the house looks beautiful. We would definitely book with her again.

We had Gaby back to do drop in visits while I was out of town and my husband was working. We couldn’t be happier! Our babies love Gaby and she is always so respectful of our space and loving/caring to our pets. She’s the best!

Gabby did a wonderful job caring for my blind dog and senior cat. She stayed at my house and all went well. Both loved her and I came home to a tidy house and happy fur babies.

I was so happy with our first experience using rover. Gabby made us and the dogs feel so comfortable!

Information Gabrielle G. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know anything and everything about your pets. Anything set them off, especially while on a walk? I often meet dogs with leash aggression, so I am very great at avoiding other dogs and redirecting. Daily medications? Dietary needs or allergies? I am here to help! Also something that is very important to me is if you have your dog on a schedule. I would love to keep up with that while you are away. It’s very important to me that I get your dog outside in the morning around the usual time that you first do. No matter how early it is, I will make sure my alarm is set if they aren’t one to let me know it is time. I like to keep up with feeding times and anything else that is important with their schedules. Any important detail for your dog or cat. If available I would please like poop bags to clean up the yard and a vacuum to be able to clean up. Also very important is a WIFI password so I am able to keep in good contact with you and update on your animals. I find myself in dead zones often with my great phone service ;) Thank you so much in advance!

A typical day

Walks, outdoor play, toy time, pets and cuddles, or even just some nap time if that is what they prefer! As long as your dog is happy I am happy. If they literally want to do a favorite activity for hours, then maybe that's just what we will have to do.
