Pet care experience

Wildlife biologist and pet lover

I am a wildlife biologist, and I graduated Purdue University with a Bachelor's in Wildlife. I enjoy all animals, including dogs! From having pets and working professionally and causally with animals my whole life, I have a great sense of animal behavior, awareness of common pet health and safety issues, and extreme attention to detail. I look forward to spoiling your four-legged friend and keeping them happy and safe!

House Sitting • Aug 31, 2026

Gabby did a wonderful job watching Luly and Koda! She provided plenty of updates throughout their stay, including pictures and videos, which we really appreciated. She followed all of the instructions we provided and made sure both pets were well cared for. Most importantly, she kept Luly and Koda safe, comfortable, and happy while we were away, which gave us peace of mind. We would book with Gabby again and recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!

Gabrielle was wonderful with our two small dogs — especially the shy one who she won over easily! Very prompt, kind and great at keeping us up to date throughout the day. A highly recommend her!

Gabrielle is an amazing sitter who arrived on time and throughly engaged with my dog, Enigma. The pictures and videos she sent showed that my dog had the best time! We both appreciate Gabrielle’s professionalism and thoughtfulness in Enigma’s care. I will definitely be booking her dog sitting service again.

Gabby took great care of my cat. She communicated frequently and was easy and flexible to work with throughout the process. She and her mom went above and beyond, offering extra enrichment for my pet and giving him lots of love on each visit.

Gabrielle took wonderful care of my cat Julien! She was very attentive and clearly loves animals. I really appreciated her check-ins and photos. Julien seemed very comfortable with her, and it was great to see him relaxed and happy. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
