Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal Loving ECU Grad Student
Hi! I’m Gabriella—an experienced and reliable pet sitter with a genuine love for animals and a background in psychology (currently earning my master’s at ECU). My pet care journey started young with family friends, coworkers, and by word of mouth. Since moving to Greenville, I’ve built a loyal client base comprised of travel nurses, doctors, first responders, and the ECU faculty, staff, and students—and I’m currently welcoming new clients! I offer weekday walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays (typically 6 p.m. to 8 a.m.) and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and temperaments—including seniors and pets needing medications (e.g., pills or eye drops). Whether your pet is energetic or needs a little extra TLC, I adapt to their needs with patience, affection, and a calming presence. Clients often describe me as flexible, detail-oriented, and dependable. I form strong bonds with the pets I care for and treat each one like my own. What to expect: • Frequent updates: I typically send 5+ photos and 2–3 sentence summaries per drop-in or walk (and more if requested!). • Open communication: I’m always happy to answer questions, provide custom updates, or adjust care preferences. • Clean and respectful home stays: When I stay overnight, I make sure your home is always left as tidy as when I arrived. • Comfort with all sizes & needs: From 4-pound puppies to 110+ pound gentle giants, and kitten to senior cats, I’ve cared for them all. • Study-friendly companionship: As a graduate student, I love using my study breaks to spend quality time with your pets. I’d be honored to care for your furry family member(s). Please don’t hesitate to send me a message with any questions. I’m always happy to support my clients (and potential clients) in anyway possible.

My cats loved her!
Elle is excellent. She house sat our pitbull and pet bunny while we were away. Her communication was outstanding and she took great care of our pets as well as our home. She has a wonderful personality, very organized and loved our pitbull while away. Highly recommend 10/10. Thank you Elle for caring for our home and pets. You were terrific :)
Elle is an excellent care provider and I was truly lucky that she was able to care for my cat while I was away. Her communication skills were excellent and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter
Calendar and availability
Schedule
I’m available for walks and drop-ins Monday through Friday, typically during the afternoons and early evening. With advance notice, I can also accommodate late evening visits (after 6pm). For overnight stays typical arrival is around 6 p.m. and stay until 8 a.m., unless otherwise discussed. Thanks to my flexible schedule, I’m able to adjust my availability to meet your pet’s needs. Don’t hesitate to reach out with special timing requests—I’m happy to collaborate to find a routine that works for everyone!
Where your pet will stay
Safety, trust & environment
Safety is my top priority. When you trust me with your pet(s) you can ensure that you will come back to your furbabies happy and healthy. Any concerns will always be communicated openly and immediately.

A typical day
My day starts with walking my own dog, Indie, followed by breakfast time for her and my two cats. During the day, you’ll usually find me working on my laptop—either studying for my master’s in psychology or working remotely for my assistantship. I take regular breaks to play with my pets, bake, or catch up on a favorite show. Typically my weekdays include at least one midday dog walk with a repeat client, and I’m often out and about caring for other Rover bookings, working on my computer from a coffee shop, or home with my pets. I enjoy having a flexible, pet-friendly routine that allows me to give animals the time, attention, and care they deserve.
