From Classroom to Canines 🐶💛

Hi! I'm Gabrielle, a passionate animal lover, proud dog mom to my 3 year old pup Yonah, and a full time elementary school teacher! Now that summer is here, I have a very flexible schedule. Looking for someone to take your dog on walks, give them lots of love, and keep you updated with adorable photos while you're away? I’ve got you covered! We'll collaborate to make sure your pet has a tail-wagging good time while you’re gone! I’ve been pet sitting and dog walking since elementary school—also helping with fish, frogs, a bird, and a hamster, and eventually convincing my parents I was ready for a dog of my own. My sister and I lovingly cared for our family dog until she was 14, and now Yonah, my own "dog daughter," keeps me on my toes with her sweet, fun-loving spirit that matches mine perfectly. With six years of teaching under my belt, I bring a nurturing, patient, and dependable presence to every pet I care for. Whether your pup loves cuddles, outdoor adventures, or just someone to chill with, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and totally at home. I have a fenced in patio and access to beautiful walking trail. I also am near dog parks and around pet friendly businesses if you'd like your pet to be socialized.

Gabrielle was amazing with our two pups! She is super mindful of the dog’s needs and gave us lots of updates! I was super nervous to leave my dogs for the first time for a longer stay (5 days), but I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. 10/10 recommend:)

Gabrielle was amazing with Chewbaca! She was so welcoming from the start and made me feel completely comfortable leaving him in her care. She kept me updated throughout the stay, which I really appreciated, and it was clear he was happy and well taken care of. I would highly recommend Gabrielle to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

Excellent!! Gabrielle watched our 2 Yorkies when we took a trip overseas. She was attentive and kept us updated with how our pups were doing and sent pictures regularly. This gave us peace of mind while we were halfway across the globe. When we returned from our trip and picked up our dogs, it was obvious they had been well taken care of. I highly recommend Gabrielle. We will definitely book with her again!

Amazing sitter. Can’t believe we even almost took our boys to a boarding facility, this is the way to go. Gabrielle was fantastic looking after our little furry family members taking them to the dog park, walking regularly and even getting them pup cups for Sam’s birthday. She is also good with giving updates and sending pictures/videos throughout their stay. If Gabrielle is someone you’re thinking about requesting to take care of your fur baby and she is available look no further she’s perfect! <3

Schedule

I'm currently a teacher, so I have flexibility on weekends when it comes to caring for your pup! I work during the week, but before & after school I take time to do the things I enjoy, like taking walks! With my own puppy, I take time after my workdays to take her for walks, playdates, or play time at the dog parks. Whether it's a short lap around the neighborhood or a long stroll through town, I can work with you to fit you and your dog's needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I am very attentive and am sure to keep an eye out for your pet's safety and comfortability at all times, whether in home or on a walk. I also have a playful, 3 year old mini cockapoo that can keep your dog company on our walks or playdates (if requested).

Pets

A typical day

We’ll start with a nice morning walk to get some energy out and sniff around the neighborhood. After breakfast and belly rubs, we might play fetch, lounge in the sun, or have a cozy nap (snuggles encouraged!). If your pup is social, I’m happy to take them on dog-friendly outings like park strolls or pet-friendly patios. I follow your pet’s routine closely—whether that means scheduled potty breaks, meds, or just sticking to their favorite nap spot. Throughout the day, I’ll keep you updated with cute photos and messages so you know your fur baby is happy and cared for. Every dog is different, so I tailor each day to match their needs, energy, and personality.

I always want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and at home with me, so the more I know, the better! Before their stay, I’d love to know their daily routine (feeding times, walks, naps, etc.); any medical needs or physical limitations; personality quirks (shy or social, triggers or fears); training & commands I should know; house rules; and favorite toys or comfort items.
