Pet care experience
I’ve been caring for domestic and exotic animals for the past ten years. I’m extremely confident in watching after and caring for your fur babies. My work schedule is Thursday-Monday from 8-5. I have Tuesday and Wednesdays off. I am a morning person, so I enjoy taking the dog for a walk first thing before heading off to work. Sets us both up for success :). I’m also available for drop ins and walks both before and/or after work as well! I typically stay in my clients home. I am a big believer in staying in good contact with the clients while they are away. Sending pictures and checking in daily. I know it can be tough being away from your babies. I am an active person so I enjoy taking the animals for walks and allowing them significant time outside if they enjoy it.
Reviews
Gabby did an outstanding job staying with our dog Gryffin. She took great care of him and kept him entertained and watched the house very responsibly. We are lucky to have her has a reliable sitter.
We are so happy we found Gabrielle. First off she is great with communicating, always letting us know what time she arrives and leaves, which dogs ate, drank, did their business etc. Maybe it’s her background and experience but she has a very watchful eye. She always lets us know if she sees any unusual behavior from our dogs that might require additional attention. Whenever we return home we can tell our boys have been taken very good care of. It is like a member of our family has been watching them. I would highly recommend Gabrielle to anyone looking for a pet caregiver.
Gabrielle has been nothing short of outstanding when it comes to taking care of Apollo and the house. He loves when she is over to take him for walks and stay with him when I'm out of town. The house is always left spotless (probably cleaner than when I left) and I never have to worry about Apollo getting enough attention when she's there. Knowing she's a Zookeeper and has been working with Animals for years certainly gives me peace of mind...highly recommend!
Gabrielle has watched our big German Shepard multiple times. I could not be happier with her. She is great with our big old fur baby. She wakes up early just to take him on a morning walks. I never have to worry about Jack (our dogs name) when she is watching him. Jack was a rescue and is timid around most people, especially new people. He constantly barks when people are over, but with Gabby its different. He loves her and gets excited every time she watched him. She has watched him from a period of 1 day to 7 days in a row. I highly recommend Gabrielle.

A typical day
I love being outside. Weather permitting of course. I love letting them soak up some rays and play fetch, go for walks, get an occasional pup cup from Starbucks if it’s ok with the parents. I typically will discuss waking locations with the owners first to make sure the dog/s are in a comfortable setting and actually enjoying themselves.
