Annable was born in Los Angeles, California, the daughter of a Colombian father and Cuban mother. Her first language was Spanish. She graduated from Woodcrest Christian High School in Riverside, California.

Annable made her acting debut at an early age, playing a young Spanish-speaking student named Rosa in Kindergarten Cop at age 4, and later moved on to various television shows and movies such as South Beach and October Road. In 2007, she starred in the Lifetime original movie Reckless Behavior: Caught on Tape and followed it quickly with a lead role in J. J. Abrams' Cloverfield. In addition to this, she made a short appearance in the John C. Reilly comedy film Walk Hard. She also provided the voice of the character Amata in Fallout 3.

Annable starred as Melanie in the Fox comedy, Breaking In. On August 24, 2011, the show was renewed by Fox for 13 episodes and was scheduled to air in the midseason comedy block. Fox canceled the series May 2011 and it ended its run April 2012. In October 2011, Annable began starring in Fox's House as Dr. Jessica Adams, a former prison doctor hired by Dr. Gregory House to join his team.
