I am currently seeking part-time work, which gives me plenty of time to invest in your pet's care and happiness! On weekdays I'm typically available from 8 AM to 6 PM. Weekend hours may vary, but I'm generally open from 9 AM to 7 PM. I like to work on a case-by-case basis and am very flexible, communication is key, and I'll always do my best to accommodate your needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I have taken care of dogs of each and every size, shy and outgoing, and young and old. I will cater to each individual pets needs. This also means I have experience walking all kinds of dogs! Dogs that need closer and tighter attention vs. off the leash walking. I will meet the animal's level wherever you are comfortable with.

Information Gabriella R. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know if your animal has any special needs or accommodations I need to be aware of before booking. I want to be sure I am able to take care of them to the highest of my ability. I have experience with all shapes and sizes, as long as I know what to expect, I'll be just fine.

A typical day

I love to stimulate dogs both mentally and physically. Fetch, frisbee, and running are household favorites of mine. I am no stranger to zoomies and have no problem playing tug of war to get energy out. I also love working on basic commands (with treats involved, of course) to stimulate the animals brain. Along with the occasional rest time that is needed for every animal and human alike, I love it all.

Pet care experience

I've been around dogs since the day I was born. I've owned 4 dogs in my lifetime (along with many fish, hamsters, mice, and cats) and currently have 2 big goofballs back at home with my family in Chicago. I have experience in puppy training, potty training, crate training, pet walking, and pet sitting of all kind. I have also carefully walked along side caring for senior pets. Throughout college, I took in dogs to foster, clean, and care for regularly. Animals truly have my heart.

Ella is the best! So thoughtful and we never worry when Bailey is with her. She’s always reliable and is an excellent communicator.

Ella is amazing! She is consistent, communicative, and our dog loves her! She sends photos and always updates us about walks with our pup. I’m happy to have found Ella!

Gabriella was prompt. Super friendly and great with Bailey. She was extremely accommodating- coming by for a test walk and to meet Bailey. Will definitely use her again.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
