I was so hopeful when booking Gabrielle and things went well at first. She let me know she was running late due to her other job so her drop in was going to be later than planned. I'm understanding and fairly laid back so I told her I can be flexible on times as long as they're taken care of. That understanding and flexibility was very much taken advantage of. Some drop ins were hours beyond what was scheduled. One drop in never happened. She went into other areas of my home even though everything she needed for taking care of my dogs was already out and available to her. I had doors that were closed and she opened them. Even went into my pantry and got food. Then left some of that food unfinished on my counter. My thermostat was changed. She stayed around in my house for almost an hour, a chunk of that time not even being with my dogs. Even though my dogs were cared for, my home and privacy were violated. I cannot recommend her services.

Gabrielle did a great job with the drop in visits for our cats while we were out of town. She provided daily updates and pictures!

Gabrielle did a FANTASTIC job with short notice dogsitting at my apartment complex with the pup. Gabrielled kept up with updates and it was awesome seeing photos of Arya having a great time with another person. Definitely recommend Gabrielle and will continue to keep her updated with any other dogsitting adventures with Arya!!!!

Gabby was able to come meet my cat before taking care of him, which was great! Pluto is an older cat with some medical needs and Gabby seemed comfortable giving him insulin. She visited him at the right timing. Previous petsitters from Rover have all shared lots of pictures and updates; Gabby only shared 1-2. I didn’t state this expectation initially so that may be on me, but it was hard to tell how much time she spent interacting with him based on the pictures. Overall, Gabby seemed competent and took care of Pluto effectively!

Gabrielle took good care of my cat Luna while I was away. She was kind, professional, and incredibly attentive. It’s such a relief knowing that I have someone trustworthy and caring to rely on. I definitely recommend her service.

After having a great experience with our last sitter, we had to find a new sitter when she moved and this was our first time with Gabrielle. We had several major concerns. Firstly, she missed the final visit. The payment was corrected after we reached out following the term. Secondly, there was no water when we returned. The fountain has several days of capacity so it looked like it had never been refilled. The cats were very thirsty and were okay fortunately. Thirdly, Gabrielle brought another person into our home without discussing it with us first, which was a breach of trust. Lastly, Gabrielle did not take the time to provide feedback after each visit in Rover as past sitters have and she also spent minimal time with the cats during her visits. Gabrielle did provide food per the instructions and keep the litter box cleaned. Based on this experience we will find a new sitter for the next time that we are away and be more careful about pre-screening.
