Vivacious fluffer extraordinaire

​Hello! I'm Gaby, a 36-year-old Colorado transplant who has been proudly loving and boarding your fur babies for over 10 successful years. I am a seasoned medical professional in the respiratory and nursing fields, which means your pet's safety, health, and medication schedules are in the absolute best hands possible. I’m a total sci-fi/anime/cosplay nerd an avid reader, and a major lover of the great outdoors, gardening,baking etc. ​I adore almost all animals (though I strictly exclude snakes, spiders, and bugs—sorry, no creepy crawlies allowed!). Fluffers—what I’ve called dogs since I was a kid—are my absolute favorite. The force is definitely strong in my home; I'm a proud Yorkie mom to my girl Ahsoka (Soka for short), who keeps me entertained with her perky, loving, Wookiee-like existence. ​When your dog stays with me, they get the total "Auntie Gaby" experience. That means a healthy mix of maximum spoilage, endless affection, but very firm boundaries! I believe structure keeps dogs happy and safe, so house rules will absolutely be reinforced. (Fun warning: if your dog doesn't have a middle name yet, they’ll definitely have one by the time they leave here!🤣😅). ​I am so excited to meet your pup, take them on awesome adventures exploring our local galaxy, snap some amazing photo-ops for you, and give them a true home away from home. ​Whether your baby is joining my pack or officially turning to the Dark Side—I can't wait to welcome them! ​Cheers, Gaby

This was our first time leaving our pup with a pet sitter, so we were naturally a little nervous. Gabrielle was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. She was incredibly communicative, responded to messages very quickly, and kept us updated every day with photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was so reassuring to see how happy and well cared for our dog was while we were away. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and felt completely confident that our pup was in great hands. We would absolutely book with Gabrielle again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter!

Fantastic sitter! Cared for my angel baby, gave me frequent updates, and even provided a full report when I came back on any further training needs as well as gave me a recommendation to check out a vet for an ear infection. Loved Gabrielle and would definitely use her again when I’m out of town as a trusted sitter! My boy was an 85 lb Bernese mountain dog and I feel good leaving him with her again.
