Highlights
Pet care experience
Licensed veterinary nurse!
I have been a licensed veterinary technician for 11 years, so my full-time job is caring for animals! I love pet sitting because I get to meet so many new dogs, all different shapes, sizes and personalities. I currently work as an Internal Medicine nurse at the Animal Emergency & Specialty Center on Kingston Pike so I have 24/7 direct access to a veterinary hospital in case of an emergency, which I consider a nice perk for pet owners. I can trim nails if needed (as long as temperament allows of course). I am more than comfortable giving medications. I am certified in canine and feline CPR as well. I have experience caring for young, old, healthy and sick patients. I am fully available Thurs-Sun and work 12 hour shifts Mon-Wed. My husband and I live in South Knoxville and have a fully fenced in half acre yard. We have one dog, a very friendly 4-year-old Golden Retriever who would LOVE a friend to play with! He’s never met another dog he hasn’t liked. I’m not looking to stay at people’s houses right now, but would love for you to leave your pet with me while you’re gone, so it is a must that they get along with other dogs! I really strive to make your pet feel right at home while they’re staying with me, and promise to treat them as if they were my own dog. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Gabriella was great! Spacious fenced back yard for plenty of room, and a lovely house. They have a really sweet dog too. Also were very accommodating to our drop off and pick up times and were great with communication. Would definitely recommend!
Gabriella takes great care of Ollie! He always comes home tired from playing outside in their huge backyard. Very easy to communicate with Gabriella!
Gabriella was so sweet and accommodated our last minute booking for Mila! She had a great house for hosting pets with a big fenced back yard, which Mila absolutely loved. She sent lots of pictures and made us feel very comfortable leaving Mila overnight ☺️ I’d 100% recommend Gabriella and will definitely book with her again!
Josie had a great time at daycare playing with Bohdi! We'll definitely be using Gab's services again!
Gabriella was amazing! She cared for my senior German Shepherd with special needs overnight. She was able to meet all his needs with no issues. You can tell she has experience and I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again. I recommend 100%!

Schedule
I’m available all day Thurs-Sun as those are my days off every week. I work three 12 hours day shifts Mon-Wed 7-7, but my husband only works about 8-5 on those days. My father-in-law, who also does Rover pet sitting, lives right down the street and could also help out on those days while we’re at work if needed, so we could certainly still watch your fur baby Mon-Wed.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in yard so your kiddo will have more than enough room to safely run around. He or she will get plenty of love and exercise. Our dog is allowed on our couch and our bed (a little spoiled), so if you’re comfortable with your dog doing the same, that’s fine by us!
Pets
A typical day
I love taking our dog, Bodhi, to World’s Fair Park or Lakeshore Park and walking him around to get some fresh air and mental/physical stimulation. With your permission, I’d be excited to do the same with your dog! However if your dog is the type that would rather lounge on the couch and watch tv, I’m always down for a good cuddle session too!
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsNon-neutered males accepted, spayed females onlyNo females in heatGabriella can host up to 2 pets per night
- No breed preferences here! I love friendly, outgoing dogs with tons of personality, but I’m also great with more timid/shy dogs who need to gain my trust before they can open up. As long as your dog would get along with my dog (my dog loves everybody so no issue there), then we should be good to go!
