About: Caring for and loving animals is something that to have done for as long as I can remember. I've had and taken care of different breeds and sizes of dogs from a Chihuahua’s to Mastiffs, as well as cats, ferrets, fish, hamsters, etc. I was a volunteer with the Humane Society for a few years. And helped Foster with my family at a young age through early adulthood. Fur Babies are family and should be treated as such. Plenty of exercise, feeding, grooming and play time will be provided. Long walks to help get rid of the zoomies and to breathe the fresh air. Rest assured I will treat your loved ones as I treat my own. Special needs such as medicine or and treatments can be given as well. I’ve had plenty of dogs and cats with health issues that had to be closely monitored. I’m patient and hard working and will do everything I can to provide the best service for your loved ones. This is my main source of income so I have open availability to make sure your fur babies are well taken care of. I make a point to not overlap my scheduled clients so that way I can give your full undivided attention. Although they will know you're not around, I will make sure that they feel as much love as they can until you're home to take back over. Although I do not do pet sitting at my home, I am very willing to do so at yours. I like to take notes and have written down information to make sure that your pet's routine is as similar to what they're used to as possible. I know how stressful it can be for them when their loved ones are away. So whether it is medication, feeding, walks, play time, I want it to be as least stressful of a situation for them as possible. So that way you are able to come back home to the happy healthy baby that you know and love.

“Abby did a great job taking care of our two dogs, Milo and Lila, on the day of our wedding.

We would 100% have Abby come watch our babies again.”

“Missi did an excellent job in what turned out to be a difficult situation. One cat needs insulin twice and day and the other escaped the house and hid in the barn. Missi searched for him and ended up putting food outside for him. All ended fine. The escapee was found, both are healthy and in good condition. Thanks, Missi.”
