Gabby

Hello, my name is Gabby Ratte and I am 20 years old studying at NUIG. I am from Hawaii and am here until mid-May. In the US at my school I am double majoring in Elementary Education and Psychology and am an absolute animal lover. I have been a dog-walker/pet-sitter for about 10 years now and have experience with almost every size and aged dog you can imagine! I love all dogs so much and being a dog owner myself, I know what it is like for your dog to be a part of the family. I am very active and love walking/running with dogs as well as just cuddling and giving attention and love to dogs.

Also, last summer and over this past christmas break I worked at a Veterinary Clinic where I was a Veterinary Assistant. My duties ranged from assisting in surgeries, helping with the boarders, feeding dogs, administering medications, walking dogs, and giving any extra love and attention to the animals when we had time. During my time here so far Ireland has amazed me but one of the things I love most about it is how dog and pet friendly it is. Seeing dogs almost everyday makes me so incredibly happy. Walking dogs or pet sitting would be the perfect way for me to meet new people, pets, and give some love to dogs!
