Highlights
Pet care experience
Your BFF - Best FurBaby Friend!
Been on Rover for 3 years now & have done over 1,000 bookings! I am a pet owner first and foremost (I own a lizard named Fig & have a friend that had a rat colony for a while, so I’m experienced in care for reptiles & rodents). You can be assured total peace of mind, and have time away from your pet guilt-free, knowing your pet will receive the love, play and attention that it needs. With each visit, I document regular observations in detailed service reports, communicating with owners about any health or behavioral issues that may arise during the day. I’ve been doing this for a while & love the job more & more everyday. I spent a few months working for a professional company in 2022 & made the choice to join Rover & make my own schedule after learning how to manage my time. I work with animals of all species, ages, needs & personalities! (Meet n Greets are now $15, for cost of travel & my time, thank you for your understanding & consideration!)

Safety, trust & environment
I have experience providing care for dogs and cats, including feeding, walking/playing, administering medication as needed, cleaning litter boxes, and providing general pet care instructions. Safety in relation to allergies, triggers, and other animals is paramount; I treat your pet as if they were my own. I LOVE taking pictures & sending detailed updates, let me know if you want more updates or less (mostly for house sittings). I follow all safety procedures while caring for animals (let me know if you have a mini Houdini on your hands so I know to block the door with my foot when I open it or if your animal really doesn’t like something to avoid discomfort). I always carry out owner's instructions regarding the pets' exercise and diet programs. If you leave a towel by the front door on rainy days, I’ll wipe them down after (especially poodles!) I definitely love giving pets affection but also understand not all animals like constant attention & will respect your pets personal space. You can also be assured that your home is in great hands; I try to leave it cleaner than it was left for me.
Ratings and reviews
Thank you Gabriela. Runa enjoyed your company. Thank you for staying later than expected.
A well deserved 5star review! I had an emergency with my cats, when I called her to come help, she arrived incredibly fast. Not only did she handle the urgent issue perfectly, but what really impressed me was how proactive she was. She went above and beyond to take care of my cats. She is incredibly reliable and gave me such peace of mind. I will absolutely reach out to her again next time!
Gabriela is super patient and nice with my slightly difficult cat. She's caring and responsible. I cannot recommend her enough!!
Gabriela has been a great sitter for Minouch. Responsive and communicative. This last booking I needed care for Minouch last minute and Gabriela responded right away and for him into her schedule.
Gabriela is so sweet, diligent, and flexible. She took good care of my slightly anxious and quirky puppy and was nothing but amazing. I felt comfortable knowing I picked her as my first time house sitter for Limbo while I was away. She also provides reports and all the pictures!!
Gabriela has been doing great with my new puppy—a 10 month old lab mix rescue. I’ve only had my dog a month and she’s still a pretty untrained and unsocialized ball of hungry nervous energy and I’m so grateful for Gabriela’s calm competence and patience keeping my beloved monster safe and happy on walks while I’m at work!

Schedule
As a dedicated pet-lover and sitter, my main occupation is in pet-care! I’m on Rover full time :) I also don’t do 'pack-walks' for dogs, I like to maximize my time creating a unique experience for your pet & it’s too much of a liability, better safe than sorry! I also love having regulars, it adds structure to both of our schedules. I’m all about gaining trust, if your animal really doesn’t enjoy new people I will put in the time, effort, patience & compassion into earning their trust. There’s this one dog I’ve been working with since I’ve been on Rover & she’s one of my best friends (love you Sonic!) There’s nothing like a fur baby getting excited to see you & greeting you at the door :) I love staying active & being outside, usually when I have extra time in the day I might walk them a bit longer or sit & give them cuddles before leaving (only if you’re alright with that of course!) If your pet needs extra playtime I’m more than happy to oblige!
