Meet Gabrielle

I am an animal lover and former owner. For about 5 years, I lived with 3 dogs and 3 cats: a 13-year-old Black Lab German Pointer mix; 6-year-old Bea-tzu (Beagle/Shih-Tzu mix); 3-year-old German Shepherd; 7-year-old and 2-year-old cats, and a kitten. I have a fair amount of experience with aggressive dogs, and I use positive reinforcement to encourage proper greeting, play, and socialization.
I am very used to giving medicine and working with animals who require extra attention, and love taking dogs on walks, and really anywhere! I equally enjoy playing with cats as well, and grooming both, including nail clipping, and other grooming requirements.
I have experience with house sitting, and providing care for both dogs and cats. These experiences included playing with, grooming, feeding, scooping litter, and administering medicine to pets.

She is an excellent source of support. Reliable and responsive to our family's needs and of equal importance adored by our daughter and dog. She always does the extra work that is really helpful to have done, which makes coming home at the end of a hectic day a lot easier. I recommend her without any hesitation.
