Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving care that feels like home!
Hi! I have 4 years of hands-on pet care experience, working with all sorts of dogs from new puppies to scared rescues who I fostered. Some of the dogs I’ve fostered struggled with separation anxiety and fear-based aggression. Caring for these dogs and helping them find their forever homes gave me valuable insight on how to slowly build trust, the importance of routine, and most importantly showing them that they are safe! Caring for a wide range of dogs and learning I started basic training with my puppy, Benjamin, and foster dogs while in my care. I loved learning along side them and gained knowledge that can help keep your pup safe and happy! I focus on positive reinforcement training, and depending on the pup, will include treats for those who are extra food motivated! I have worked on: leash skills, handling, and both basic and semi-advanced commands.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Gabriella was absolutely wonderful with my dog! She was caring, attentive, and truly went above and beyond to make sure my dog was comfortable and well taken care of. My dog definitely has a new friend now! I’ll most definitely be booking Gabriella again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and great with pets.

Thanks so much for always taking such good care of Sky!

Gabriella took great care of Millie! She got lots of love and play time with her dog Benji. I loved all the updates with pictures a few times a day. Gabriella also graciously worked with my travel schedule, I really appreciated her flexibility and understanding. Would definitely book again!

Gabriella was amazing! She was incredibly responsive, kept me updated throughout Marley’s stay, and sent lots of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear Marley was having the best time—she came home completely worn out from all the fun and playtime! I could tell she was well cared for and loved. I’ll definitely be booking with Gabriella again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter!

She did a great job watching our Jada. Very communicative and caring. Highly recommend.

Gabriella was such an angel, and her doggo was a total sweetheart, to my anxious pup! Thank you so much for taking such good care of her that she didn’t want to leave 😆

Schedule
Prior to all bookings, a meet and greet must take place to ensure a good fit for both parties! Service descriptions listed below: **BOARDING** I provide a calm, loving home where pups can relax, play, and feel safe. I work from home 5 days per week, which means plenty of companionship, potty breaks, and enrichment throughout the day. I am typically gone at most 4-5 hours at a time. I also live with my partner, Denard, who will occasionally assist with potty breaks for your dog if I need to be out of the house for an extended period 8+ hours, or I’m the case of emergencies. ** HOUSE-SITTING ** When providing house-sitting, I will be staying overnight in your home and will be following your pups schedule to maintain as much consistency in their routine as possible. The rate listed on my profile for house-sitting care includes: Care in home from 7pm - 7am with a mid-morning and mid-afternoon drop-in. If your pet needs constant care (your dog cannot be left alone for more than 2 hours at a time, OR 2 hours total over the course of the day), the rate is $125/day. All cameras in the home must be disclosed at the meet and greet. **DROP-INS** Drop-in visits are typically 30 or 60 minutes, and include food and fresh fresh water, potty breaks, lots of love and attention, indoor/outdoor playtime, and any medication needed. **WALKS** Walks can be 30 or 60 minutes, and include a walk in your neighborhood, fresh water provided, potty breaks, and love and attention!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My home is in a walkable area with no elevators and easy access to an off-leash dog park. There’s plenty of space for your pup to feel comfortable, plus a well-socialized golden retriever who loves having a playmate. I keep a clean environment with clear, consistent boundaries inside and on leash, ensuring your pup gets structure, love, and attention that meets their unique needs—whether they’re playful, shy, or somewhere in between. When caring for your pup in your home, I prioritize keeping things consistent and comfortable. I take the time to understand your routines, rules, and preferences so your dog experiences as little disruption as possible. Every household—and every dog—is different, and I’m here to support your style of care. Whether that means sticking to a specific walking schedule, reinforcing house rules, or maintaining feeding rituals, I’ll follow your lead to ensure your pup feels safe, secure, and right at home.
Pets
A typical day
During the work week (M-F) we will go for walks in the neighborhood, enjoy outdoor time (I have 30ft long-leashes that allow the pups to explore and sniff outdoors safely!), play indoors, and get lots of snuggles and attention from myself and my partner. Some other past experiences include: going to greenways for long walks, going to the White Water Center to go paddle boarding, and car rides for pup cups!
