Pet Sitting Ashfield

“Highly recommend. Abigail was very knowledgeable and thorough, from our meet-n-greet, through the 10 days of caring for our kitties while we were away. The cats clearly loved her because they would follow her around the house every visit! She did an amazing job managing their care, and also took great care of our plants.”

About: I have experience in veterinary clinics as an assistant, technician, and at the front desk for a combined 3+ years. I have done petsitting for 16 years. I am well-versed in animal body language and I have experience handling pets of many temperaments, including anxious, reactive, senior, and medically complex animals. I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring for signs of illness or stress, and helping pets feel safe. My background in veterinary medicine has taught me the importance of patience, reliability, and attentive care, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My schedule is very pet-care friendly, and I’m used to building my daily routine around animals’ needs. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, enrichment, and monitoring animal behavior and health. I’m reliable, communicative, and make sure pets receive consistent attention and care throughout the time we spend together. I always try to keep pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, exercised, given fresh water, and provided with plenty of attention, play, and affection. I also monitor their behavior closely for any signs of stress or illness and keep owners updated with photos and messages. With my veterinary background, I’m comfortable handling medications, senior pets, anxious animals, and pets with special needs. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and creating a calm environment where pets feel secure and cared for.

About: Hello! My name is Nora. I have been petsitting for over 15 years! I first started caring for dogs when a friend found out my love for dogs and how much fun I had running with them and making them happy splashing in the water or just playing fetch! My arm can hold up to all the tug-a-wars any dog throws at me as well as throwing a good tennis ball. I love being outdoors and can go for miles walking any size dog. My experience includes any overnights or day-vacations that require your dog to stay home or while your at work. My availability is pretty open so feel free to contact me and let's set up some walks or sitting for an occasion. Looking forward to hearing from you and your dog/animals. I currently work full-time in insurance, but with a flexible work schedule I am able to petsit almost anytime. I currently have 4 dogs in my household, so any amount of dogs, cats, horses, and farm animals, I am available! When taking care of any pet, whether that be of my own or a petsitting job, every animal is taken care of like my own. My 4 dogs are trained to an electric fence, but have trained to kenneled fence, crate, fenced in yard, and on the leash. I love providing care for each pet with love and no matter the occasion, your pet is in good hands.
