About: Hello! My name is Abigail, and I’ve been passionate about caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I currently have three wonderful fur babies: two Shih Tzu’s and a husky, along with a lovely cat. I take great pride in treating every pet I care for as if they were my own. Whether it’s feeding, watering, administering medication, cleaning litter boxes, or engaging in playtime and cuddles, I ensure each animal receives compassionate and attentive care. I especially enjoy the special bond that forms through play and affection, making sure your pet feels loved and comfortable while you’re away. My schedule is flexible during the summer months (June and July). The rest of the year, I am available in the evenings and on weekends since I am a full-time college student, soon to be teacher in January. Therefore, I can meet your pet’s needs! I am also happy to stay overnight in your home and be your pet’s friend if you wish. Additionally, I will send daily updates and pictures during your absence. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. Thank you! I will provide the utmost care when taking care of your furry babies. I ask that you let me know your pet’s usual routine, and I will continue it while you're away. I have experience caring for pets in their owners' homes. Therefore, I will water, feed, and administer pills (if needed) to your pets. I will also clean litter boxes and tidy up, ensuring any pet hair and related messes are taken care of. Additionally, I will play and cuddle with cats, and play, cuddle, and exercise with dogs.
“Betty did a great job taking the time my boy needed to get more comfortable on his first visit. He's a super sweet boy but shy and apprehensive at first. She helped make him feel comfortable and he warmed up quickly. I expect the next visits will be even better. Thank you Betty!”

“Crystal was great with our 6 cats while we were away. We have shy, timid kitty that she was able to coax out and made she ate. We never worried if they were being taken care of.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover and current pet parent to one energetic German Shorthaired Pointer puppy and two independent (but secretly snuggly) cats. Caring for such a high-energy breed has given me lots of experience with exercise needs, structure, and gentle training — while my cats remind me to always respect boundaries and read body language. Whether your pet is playful, shy, anxious, or a total goofball, I meet them where they are. I believe in kind, attentive care and keeping pets as comfortable and happy as possible while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love getting to know each animal’s unique personality. With a flexible schedule and ample free time, I’m able to provide reliable, consistent care tailored to your pet’s needs. Whether it’s frequent potty breaks, medication on a schedule, or just keeping them company, I’m fully present and available. Whether your pet stays with me or I come to you, I do my best to create a calm, safe, and loving environment. At my home, pets have room to play, relax, and feel like part of the family alongside my friendly GSP pup and two laid-back cats. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’m always respectful of your space and stick closely to your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free.
About: I have a soft spot for animals because I grew up with lots of them and hope to have my own animal shelter one day. I have done drop in visits for a neighbor for the past 4 years. I’ve helped my mom my entire life with her dog business so I’m very familiar and comfortable with caring for dogs! I am currently a student but about to finish school for small business entrepreneurship so I will have a flexible schedule and am willing to do an additional visit if needed. If your pet needs to be let out in a fenced area or walked I can do that along with feeding and providing fresh water if needed. Additionally, I don’t mind a little enrichment such as playing fetch or a little tug of war. All animals should feel safe and comfortable and I provide that feeling.
About: I have cared for several pets in my lifetime with several years of experience. I love animals sometimes more than people, but I genuinely treat them the way that I would treat my own and want nothing more than a comfortable experience with you and your fur babies. I work full-time, but I get off work at 4:30 every single day and am free every single evening and the weekends. I’m free as well as long as I have a schedule set and place I will treat and care for your pet just as I would my own. I will take care of things and do things as you ask. I love animals and I treat peoples things with love and respect.
About: Recently retired from the veterinary medicine, I have been around dogs, cats and horses since I was two I have a very huge love for all animals and snakes too!!!!! 🐶🐎🐈⬛ I have a farm for many years. I rescued and pulled seniors dogs and horses out of shelters and kill pens five dogs five cats two horses welcome to my world. I am not set up for daycare for fur babies at my house. My German shepherds are wonderful. They are very well trained, but it’s not fair to them to bring other dogs into their pack at this time.
About: I have at least 10 years experience caring for my own family's dogs growing up. I pay special attention to every client's pet's potential medical conditions as well and will take great care to make sure they are as comfortable and safe as can be. I will also send frequent videos and photos of your pets while you are away, so you will always have the convenience of seeing and knowing that your pets are happy and safe. IMPORTANT: I am open every day of the week from 6 a.m. - 10 p.m. so feel free to reach out to me, even with a 0 day notice. :) I will always ask about the special needs for your pet(s) and spend lots of quality time with them. I always make sure if certain pets need to be separated during meals or treats or toys to prevent possible aggression while you are gone (I do this due to previous experience handling dog fights).
About: I have a degree in animal science so I know lots about all sorts of animals, i love all animals with a passion. I’m a dog mom of 3! Currently working Wednesday from 2-5 and Friday 6-12. So the rest of the week I can play and walk your pups 🐶!! I’m super flexible with my schedule.

Abigail D.
“Abigail is an absolute gem! She’s cared for our beloved Husky many times and is truly the kind of person every pet owner dreams of finding. Not only is she incredibly reliable and responsive, but she also brings genuine love and joy into every visit. She has stayed in our home on multiple occasions, and I can say with full confidence that she treats our fur baby like her own. Abigail is kind, polite, and attentive to every need. She doesn’t just “show up” for the job—she spoils our dog with affection, play, and care every time. One of the most heartwarming things is watching our dog’s reaction when she walks through the door—even after months apart, he can’t get enough of her. That bond says it all! We feel so lucky to have found Abigail and will always welcome her into our home to care for our pup whenever our schedule allows. Trust me—you’ll be just as impressed as we are!”
