Pet care experience
Reliable & Attentive Pet Care 🐾
Hi there! 😊 I’m Gabby 👋, an experienced and reliable pet sitter based in Leeds. I have a flexible schedule, love animals, and thoroughly enjoy travel—which has allowed me to look after adorable pets all over Europe. This flexibility also makes it easy for me to travel to more rural areas, which I know can be helpful for clients. (This is, of course, dependent on the length of the stay required). What makes me a good sitter: I really enjoy long walks and getting out into the countryside. I love to explore with furry friends and have a car that I'm happy to transport pets in, provided you are comfortable with that. I have the good fortune of being able to work from anywhere, so I can be with your pet 24/7 throughout the duration of the booking. I am very effective at assessing animals' needs and facilitating a range of activities to ensure they are engaged and having a wonderful time. I also have experience in administering medications and supporting pets with strict routines or those undergoing training. I understand how important it is to follow an owner's guidance, especially if a pet has underlying health conditions. I feel confident caring for young and elderly animals alike, and none are too big or too small! 🐈🐕 And generally, I just love animals—I mean, who doesn't love a cuddle on the sofa with a fur baby? When sitting: I understand that inviting someone into your home to look after your pet requires a lot of trust, and I take that very seriously. I take care to look after both your pets and your home thoughtfully, ensuring your house is left as clean as it was found, and that your pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I also love taking nice pictures of your pets to send you regular updates, so you can see what they're getting up to and have total peace of mind while you're away. Feel free to get in touch! I'm happy to have a phone call and arrange a meet-and-greet prior to booking. If you have any questions at all, please just let me know. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Also, if you use this link, it gives you £15 off your first booking with me: 👉 https://www.rover.com/sit/gabrin67458 😊 Please note: Pets must be non-aggressive towards people and comfortable walking on a lead and/or have good recall. Owners are to provide beds, food, bowls, and toys for the duration of the stay. 🐾

Ratings and reviews
Many thanks to Gabby for looking after Isla, our anxious border collie. Excellent communication before and during the stay. She worked well to overcome the challenges of Isla’s anxiety. Many thanks. Much appreciated.

Wonderful cat sitter, very kind and considerate, will use again!

Great experience with Gabby, she has such love for animals that our dogs were so happy wiring her care + the house was left very tidy when leaving


My pups first couple of day stays with Gabrielle have been marvelous. Barney has come back relaxed & happy and obviously been busy during his day. Gabrielle has communicated really well before during & after stays, sent photos too. Looking forward to Barney's next stay with his new frieds.

What an amazing stay for our Cane Corso, Apollo. Gabby was very attentive with his care and sticking to his normal daily routine. I got multiple updates every day, as well as pictures and videos of Apollo having fun! I couldn't have asked for a better service. I genuinely felt at ease with Gabby looking after him, I could tell straight away that Apollo was happy and comfortable with Gabby. Gabby also went the extra mile when Apollo was homesick and helped him be reassured. Thank you! I would definitely be using Gabby again and would certainly recommend her to other pet owners.

Gabby and Adam have been trusted pet sitters to my 2 cats for over 6 months, and do a wonderful job looking after the pair when I’m away with work. Kind, reliable, and very good with anxious animals 👍🏻

Schedule
Pet care fits very naturally into our routine. I have flexible working schedules, which means I can plan my day around the needs of pets able to give regular walks, attention and companionship throughout the day.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In our home, dogs are always supervised, have access to a secure, fenced garden for outdoor play and are welcome to rest comfortably inside with their own beds on on our covered sofa with us. We make sure the environment is calm, clean and free from hazards. When visiting owner’s home, I follow instructions carefully, respect routines, ensure the pet feels safe, attended too and comfortable at all times, and ensure that I leave the space tidy and clean. Whether at home or theirs, we provide consistent supervision, plenty of attention, and maintain a trustworthy, reliable presence so both pets and owners feel confident and at ease.
A typical day
Me and Adam are very active people, we are happy to spend a lot of time outdoors and engaged in play with pets (tugrope, chase or fetch etc). Our day typical starts at around 8:45-9am on weekdays and around 9:30-10:00am on weekends. However if a pet has a set routine, I am happy to accommodate this. When dogs stay, I will feed them, let them out in the back yard and then take them around the park for a morning stroll. Afterwards, I would then have breakfast and begin work for a couple of hours (on the laptop. Pets are welcome to come sit beside either me or Adam for cuddles while we work. At around midday, we would have some lunch (and feed our pet guest routine depending). And then go for a nice long walk through the woods, onto the moors, or just around the park again if the weather isn't great. After about 2 hours walk/run and playtime, we would come back home and start settling down for the evening for some dinner for us all. (Again if this coincidence with our pet guests routine). Then I'd be happy to take the pets out for another walk after food, have cuddles and unwind together in the evening with our pet guest. Then another quick walk for a toilet try before going to sleep at around 12:00am. Often, if we have a pet guests for extended periods of time, we will take them out on day trips to country parks and even the seaside, whatever our pet guest owner is comfortable with. - When sitting, my routine is very similar to this unless otherwise instructed by pet owners in adherence to their pets routine.
