Retired and a Dog Lover

I have been a lifelong dog lover and caregiver, having had dogs since I was a child. Most recently, I had the privilege of caring for our beloved Yorkie, who was with us from puppyhood until he passed away at the age of 17. I devoted myself to his care every single day, right up until his last moments. In addition to my personal experience, I’ve also cared for dogs through my work as a senior citizen caregiver. For instance, I recently cared for Gucci, a 3-year-old Yorkie, for three weeks while his owner recovered from hip surgery. I am incredibly detail-oriented, passionate about dogs, and now that I am 80% retired, I’m mostly at home and ready to share my love and care with your furry family members.

Great dog sitter. My frenchie felt right at home and got lots of attention and cuddles. Gisella sent daily updates and pictures and videos. Felt very comfortable with her. We also had a meet and greet prior. Would highly recommend and will use her again in the future. Thanks so much!!!

Gisella is awesome! She took care of our rescued racing greyhound while we were gone for a week. We got updates, photos and videos every day. When we got home, we were'nt sure if our pet was glad to see us or if she wanted to stay with Gisella!

Dog Walking • Oct 06, 2025

We requested Gisella for a few days to walk my elderly dad’s dog, Lupe, as well as for a few other tasks, while we were away. Lupe liked Gisella from the first meeting and Gisella very quickly picked up on Lupe’s needs and little quirks. Getting feedback and pictures from Gisella after every walk really enabled us to continue our trip worry-free. We also heard only good things about Gisella from my dad, who was at home. Giselle is very kind and pleasant to be around. We will definitely call upon her from now on any time we need a walker for Lupe again.
