Where Love for Animals Meets a Creative Soul
Boutique pet boarding, handcrafted custom products, and a whole lot of heart — in Huntingdon Valley, PA.
Hi, I'm Gabriela
I’ve been caring for animals my whole life — not just as a hobby, but as something I was born to do. Over 15 years of watching over beloved pets for friends, neighbors, and family taught me that animals communicate in ways we don’t always slow down enough to hear or see. I do.
I’m a Rover Star Sitter based in Huntingdon Valley, PA, with 50 five-star reviews and a home that was made for dogs — backyard, nearby trails, cozy couches and all. Every dog that stays with us is our only guest, getting our full attention from morning walks to bedtime cuddles.
But animals are only half of what makes Our Happy Tree what it is. I’m also an artist and maker. I paint on custom 12″×12″ wooden boards, design custom t-shirts, create seasonal items, and craft one-of-a-kind pieces for the pets and people who love them. Everything I make carries the same intention I bring to every dog in my care: with love, and with quality that lasts.
