Pet care experience
About me: I am current grad student with a few months off for the summer. I am an outdoor enthusiast and overall compassionate person. A dog lover whose is feeling a hole in my life where my dog used to be. My academics/income don’t allow me to have a dog full time right now so I would love to look after yours! I live a few blocks from Strawberry Creek Park. I also love to run and dance around in the grass and historically have found that dogs love to do that with me :) I spend most of my time outdoors and could alwas use a 4-legged buddy! I grew up with poodles all my life so am comfortable with the care it takes to provide a happy and healthy experience for dogs, especially as they get older and require more attention! I have spent several weeks this summer dog sitting my sister's puppy, so am well versed in the amount of attention is needed for a puppy, too.
Reviews
Gabrielle was so great when she watched our two pups for a long weekend. Not only was she incredibly communicative throughout the stay with updates and pictures, but was willing to help us out in a travel pinch and was super flexible. Our pups loved her and look forward to having her sit in the future!
It was a great pleasure to have Gabrielle stay with our dogs. She is reliable and communicative. It felt safe to have her sit our dogs and have her walk Charlie who can be reactive. Gabrielle is attentive and bring motivation and ease to the work. Next time i need a sitter i will definitely try to book her again.
Max is happy and relaxed! Thanks so much!
Gabby is a wonderful pet sitter! She stayed at my place and took care of my old dog and kitten and even came over for an emergency visit when my flight was delayed. She’s reliable and very good with animals! My babies were so happy when I got home and everything was perfect.

Safety, trust & environment
I am very respectful of people’s home when doing drop ins, I understand it could be uncomfortable letting a new person into your home. Happy to meet you before hand so you can meet me prior!
Information Gabrielle P. would like to know about your pet
No breed preference. Would love an honest assesment of how well drained the dog is so I can prepare properly. Is your dog good with other dogs?
A typical day
Lots of walks around the neighbrohood- I live a few blocks from Strawberry Creek Park. Hiking in the Berkeley Hills if the dog is up to it!
