Experienced handler of all breeds!

Pet care experience

I have a wide array of professional dog handling experience making me comfortable with fur friends of all shapes and sizes! My experience as a shelter volunteer taught me safe handling protocol and how to work with reactive dogs. I also understand dog body language and behavior after working at doggy daycare and facilitating safe play with breeds ranging from Doberman to Yorkie! Want to work on loose leash walking? No problem! I trained service dogs in college and am happy to work on basic manners with your pup! As an owner of a rescue dog who is working through some issues, I understand how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone new, but I promise they are in qualified hands!

Abbey did an incredible job pettsitting while we were away! She was absolutely wonderful and attentive with both my dogs and cats. I have a special needs dog and she was so good with him, he absolutely loved her :) Abbey stayed in my home and the house was in perfect condition when we returned. She was also very responsive and communicative throughout our trip. She handled a borderline medical issue that occurred with my cats perfectly. Could not be happier with her services, would definitely book her again in the future!

Abbey was amazing! We have a shy cat and he warmed up to her quickly and she always made sure to write great updates and get pictures of both cats. If we need to go away again we will definitely rebook her!

Abbey did a great job of watching my dog and communicated daily how she was doing.

Safety, trust & environment

I offer care in the client’s home where your dog feels most comfortable. I have my own dog who is friendly but can be a bit much for some dogs so to ensure everyone is safe and comfortable, I don’t provide services inside my home. All I ask is you send a care guide for your dog, and I will be sure to follow all instructions while ensuring your dog is mentally and physically stimulated!

I am a graduate student at UConn so I am able to have a more flexible schedule than someone with a 9-5 job! I am willing to work with you’re schedule to find a time that works for both of us!
