Bilingual Care for Your Fur Baby

Hi! I’m Gabriela, a bilingual (English/Spanish) pet lover who believes every pet deserves patience, kindness, and individualized care. As a mental health professional, I’m naturally calm, reliable, and attentive to routines and behavior. I have over 3 years of hands-on experience caring for my own cat, Muffin, including giving oral medication, brushing his coat, cleaning his ears, using waterless grooming products, maintaining a clean litter box, and recognizing changes in his health or behavior. I’m also comfortable following feeding routines and providing photo updates during and/or after every visit. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their daily routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment

I respect every home as if it were my own and carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions. I’ll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, a clean space, exercise or playtime if requested, and plenty of love and attention. I’m detail-oriented, dependable, and committed to keeping your pet safe, comfortable, and on their usual routine during every visit.

Gabby is truly one of those people you can trust completely with your pets. She is incredibly patient, loving, attentive, and responsible, and she genuinely treats animals like family. She pays attention to the little things—their routines, personalities, comfort, and any changes in their behavior. I’ve seen firsthand how caring and gentle she is with animals, especially with pets who need a little extra patience or time to feel comfortable. She never forces a connection; she lets them come to her and makes sure they feel safe. She is also extremely reliable and takes her responsibilities seriously. If I had to trust someone with my pet while I was away, Gabby would absolutely be my first choice. Your pet won’t just be looked after—they’ll be genuinely cared for and loved. I couldn’t recommend her enough! ❤️🐾

Schedule

I currently work part-time, which allows me to offer reliable drop-in visits during the afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their regular routine, and I’ll always do my best to provide dependable, consistent care. I’ll communicate clearly and send photo updates during and/or after every visit so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

Before each visit, I would like to know your pet’s feeding schedule, daily routine, personality, favorite activities, and any fears or triggers. Please also share any medical conditions, medications, allergies, behavioral concerns, escape risks, and emergency contact or veterinarian information. I want to understand what helps your pet feel safe and comfortable so I can follow their usual routine as closely as possible.
