Love is a four legged word

My name is Gissell and I'm an animal lover! I grew up with dogs and couldn't imagine a life without a four legged friend by my side. I have been pet sitting for over 16 years for friends and family and I'm excited to share my services here. I was blessed with 2 amazing dogs, raised them since they were 8 weeks old, they are now 13 & 15. Cuddles, play time and positive reinforcement are a must in my household. I'm highly organized, patient, active, and loving. I also work from home which gives me more flexibility for walks, potty breaks, training lessons, belly rubs etc. Being a dog mom I understand how stressful it could be not knowing if your pet is in the best hands, I can assure you that I treat every single animal with the respect and love they deserve. I would be happy to answer any additional questions you might have.

Gissell took such amazing care of my baby. I was able to have a wonderful trip and even visit him to take him on an adventure. My dog is so in love with her and her son that he cried when we left.

Gissell was a great sitter. She took good care of our dog and provided updates throughout her stay.

Gissell was one of the best Rover sitters we've worked with! Our pup loved her from the minute he met her and when we returned, our dog was super chill and happy (not always the case!). Gissell took great pictures (so cute) and was great at keeping in touch. Thank you so much for being available so last minute and for taking such good care of our pup!! We'd love to work with you again :)

Gissell was so nice and great with my dog Willow. Willow was super happy when I picked her up and I appreciate that Gissell sent me photos throughout the day. Gissell also took some time to meet me and Willow ahead of time to make sure everyone was comfortable which was super helpful. Definitely recommend Gissell and will be reaching out to her again!
