Cheerful & communicative dog sitter
Pet care experience
Hello! Thank you for considering me to care for your treasured family member :) My name is Gabby! I am a friendly, responsible, and communicative dog sitter. I know it can be daunting finding a suitable pet sitter, so I am happy to answer any questions and accommodate you and your pets’ requests and preferences. Your pets’ safety and comfort is of the utmost importance to me, and I will strive to create a safe and enjoyable environment for everyone. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible for your and your pets’ needs! I have experience taking care of dogs of all sizes and ages, both personally and professionally. A few of the breeds I have cared for in the past are: Pit Bulls, Australian Shepherd, Jack Russel Terrier, Dachshund, Golden Retrievers, Poodle, Maltipoo, French Bulldogs, and Golden Doodle varying in ages from under 1 year to over 8 years old. Here are a few reasons why I think you and your dog will love to have me as a caretaker: 1. I provide regular updates to owners. 2. I make sure to respect a dogs personal space and preferences. 3. I am extremely patient and am happy to accommodate animals of any energy level. 4. I spend time both caring for a dogs emotional needs (playing, cuddling) and physical needs (exercising, feeding). I can’t wait to get to know you and your dog(s)!
Reviews
Gabby is such an incredible sitter! She leaves detailed recaps of how she spends the day with our sweet girl! I never worry with her taking care of our pup, and honestly she’s our favorite sitter! She always leaves the house so clean and switches out the laundry. When we have late arrivals home she makes sure to get Yuki ready for bed so we don’t even have to think about it! Truly Gabby is a delight!!
I cannot overstate how happy I was with my experience with Gabby watching my apartment but more importantly, my dog who I love as if he is part of the family. Gabby stayed at my apartment while I was gone 5 days and she did a terrific job giving my dog the care and comfort he has grown accustomed to. Gabby provided daily updates, including lots of photos, of the amount of walks they went on as well as how my dog was doing throughout the time I was gone. She went above and beyond to not only ensure my dog had a great time filled with as much playing as relaxing as he likes, but she also left my apartment looking spotless and even cleaned all of the towels, sheets or areas she used. I would absolutely recommend her to any of my friends who need additional help with their dog and I know my dog hopes to see her again in the future!
Gabby was an incredible sitter for our tiny girl Yuki! She made sure to meet her before taking care of her for the weekend, sent detailed updates each day, and it was so clear that she genuinely loved spending time with our pup! We would absolutely have her take care of her again in a heartbeat! ??
Gabby is amazing! She went above and beyond in every way before house sitting and watching Indy for us. She came for a meet & greet first, getting to know the house and taking notes on any specific needs for Indy. During her stay, she sent 2-3 updates a day with pictures and recaps of the day. Indy definitely had an amazing time exploring the park and playing at the beach with Gabby. You can tell she truly loves dogs and is deeply respectful of other peoples’ spaces. We’re grateful!
About Gabby L.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have the utmost respect for my client’s home and privacy. I will never overstep boundaries set for me in your safe space and you can be sure that your home and pet is safe with me. I am a very cleanly person, and will ensure all household areas are left exactly the way I found them. Depending on if the client prefers, I am happy to wipe the dog’s paws and private areas upon entering the home to ensure the dust of the city does not enter with them!
Information Gabby L. would like to know about your pet
I’d like to know your pup’s schedule, when you generally feed them and take them out for walks! I also would need to know any dietary restrictions, health conditions, or allergies I need to look out for. Please also let me know if your dog is friendly with other animals/moving objects/smaller people (their temperament in general!)
A typical day
I live by Golden Gate park so I’d love to take your dog to explore all the sights, smells, and sounds there! I will keep your pup both mentally and physically stimulated, allowing them plenty of sniff time and play time with others if you allow it!

Availability
I work from home, so my availability for any service (walking, sitting and drop ins) is very flexible! I will always make time for my clients needs. I also do not have a dog myself, so rest assured, 100% of my attention will be focused on your dog.
