Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard they can roam in. If there’s any uncomfortable situations between dogs I separate them to give a break. And reintegrate slowly.

Information Gail D. would like to know about your pet

If they kennel, behavior tips- how they let me know they need to go outside, if they get along with big dogs. Any special needs.

A typical day

I love to let the dog get comfortable and then I’ll pet and love on them. I will occasionally give treats too! My younger dog loves to try and play with all my clients.

Pet care experience

Hi my name is Gail. At our home we have 3 dogs. I have several years of experience with dogs. I started in 2001 helping with my neighbors dogs. I enjoy taking my dog for runs and playing with her. I work at a local hospital so I work 2-3 days a week and home the remainder. Sometimes my days can be kind of hairy but I make it work and can be fairly flexible. I have been around animals my entire life. For the last few years I’ve been helping friends and family with their pets while out of town so I thought why not do Rover and earn some income while doing it! I would love to get to know you and your dog! I already have 2 dogs we feed in the morning and evening. I love have my dogs close to me to cuddle. Piston loves to be on my lap or close enough to touch! I do work 3 12s and I kennel my younger dog. They love to run out in the fenced yard and bark and let the neighborhood know they are outside. A couple things up front— I do require a kennel be brought during the stay. If I have to leave my home for any reason I kennel the dogs. In the bast I’ve had my belongings torn up in my absence. Also I try and do a meet and greet for the dogs to ensure everyone’s a good fit!

Gail is so awesome! We used her for a couple drop in visits recently and had a great experience. Bully absolutely loves her, and she followed our instructions to a tee. Thank you, Gail!

Gail was so awesome with our two crazy pups! She did a few check-ins with our adult and puppy golden retrievers, who are handfuls, and we had a great experience. She was punctual, friendly, responsible, and a great communicator. She sent several pictures and updates so I knew they were doing well. She did everything we asked and even brought in a couple packages that were delivered without being asked. We will definitely have Gail check on our guys again!
