Flexible schedule, fun sitter!

Pet care experience

Coming from a multi-dog and multi-cat childhood home, I have had lifelong care experience with pets of every age, size, and temperament. My partner and I currently have 2 dogs, frequently pet-sit for friends, and we have fostered dogs in the past. We have diligently cared for dogs and cats (and pet rats!) with medical needs, as well as senior animals. We work opposite schedules, so someone will be at the house with your furry friend nearly 24/7!

Our pups stayed for a whole week and had a great time! We loved getting the pics and videos! We definitely recommend Ab and will certainly be booking with her again!

Ab was an amazing sitter! Her home and older pups were the perfect setting for my energetic pup who is still learning! She sent loads of pictures and video and I could tell she took my pup in as her very own!

Ab has been wonderful to work with. We receive pictures or videos of our fur babies on a regular basis and she has been very accommodating when we've had to change a return date or drop off/pick up at an early or later time. I feel that our dogs get lots of loving attention, have a pleasant home to stay in, and would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Ab!

Ab was so great with Ralph. He played with her dogs and came home relaxed and happy from his own little vacation while we were away.

Dogs that visit my home will be treated like one of our pack - lots of potty breaks in the backyard, walks, cuddles on the couch, and playtime with toys and the resident dogs. Of course, your dog's individual needs, be them medical or otherwise, will be attended to carefully.

I work from home with my two dogs, very friendly 8-year-old and 4-year-old terrier mixes. My schedule is generally very open, so we usually are able to go for a walk and/or to the dog park every day. Additionally, I let the dogs outside in our fenced backyard at least every couple of hours. Because my schedule is flexible, there are several time ranges throughout the day where I am available to walk or care for others' pets.
