Pet care experience
As someone who has been passionate about animal rescue since childhood, I have spent years fostering and caring for dogs of all ages and breeds. I have a particular talent for connecting with animals who have experienced trauma or abuse, and I take great pride in providing a safe, nurturing environment for them to heal and thrive. My experience working with rescue dogs has also given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, allowing me to anticipate their needs and respond to them quickly and effectively. In addition to my experience with dogs, I am also a proud cat mom with several feline friends of my own. I understand that cats have their own unique needs and personalities, and I am always willing to go the extra mile to make sure they feel comfortable and happy. From providing plenty of toys and scratching posts to offering up endless snuggles, I am dedicated to making sure your kitties feel loved and cared for while you're away. I have also completed certification in dog and cat first aid, so you can rest assured that your pets are always in safe hands. I am dedicated to providing the highest level of care for your furry friends. With a deep passion for animal welfare and years of hands-on experience, I am confident that I have the skills and expertise to exceed your expectations as a pet sitter. Overall, my combination of passion, experience, and specialized skills make me a unique and highly qualified pet sitter. I understand that every pet is different, and I am committed to providing individualized care tailored to the specific needs and preferences of your furry family members.
Reviews
Abbey did a great job watching my dogs Barnaby & Jozey! She was very responsive and I could tell that she took great care of my pups. I will definitely be using her again in the future.
Abbey is amazing. She stayed at my house for three days with my dog while I was out of town. My dog is blind so taking him to a kennel or someone else's house isn't really an option. Abbey kept him safe and happy while I was away. I will definitely hire her again the next time I need to leave my pup at home.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize their safety and well-being above all else. Before the pet's scheduled care, I ensure that I am fully aware of any allergies, dietary restrictions, medication needs, or specific health concerns the pet may have. This helps me to provide the best possible care for the pet during my time with them. During the scheduled care, I make sure the environment is safe for the pet by checking for any potential hazards or risks. This includes ensuring that any dangerous items or substances are out of reach, securing doors and windows, and making sure the pet has access to fresh water and food. I also spend time with the pet, providing them with affection, playtime, and walks if necessary. Additionally, I always make sure to maintain the client's home's cleanliness and security during my stay. I am respectful of the client's space and belongings and make sure to leave everything as I found it. In summary, my priority is to ensure the pet's safety and well-being while in my care, and to provide a positive experience for both the pet and the client.
Information Abbey I. would like to know about your pet
As a responsible pet sitter, I believe it's important to gather as much information as possible about the dogs I will be caring for ahead of time. This includes things like their temperament, energy level, any medical conditions or special needs, and their usual routine. I also like to know about their favorite toys and activities so that I can provide them with the most enriching and enjoyable experience possible. By gathering this information, I can tailor my care to each individual dog and ensure that they receive the best possible care during their time with me.
A typical day
A typical day in my pet care routine begins with a morning walk to stretch our legs and get some fresh air. Depending on the dog's energy level and personality, we may go on a longer hike or a shorter walk around the neighborhood. During the day, we will spend plenty of time playing together, whether it's fetch in the backyard, tug-of-war with a rope toy, or just some cuddles and belly rubs. I always make sure to provide plenty of mental stimulation as well, whether it's working on basic training skills or playing with puzzle toys. If there are any specific activities or toys that the dog enjoys, I will make sure to incorporate those into our daily routine as well. I am also open to any special requests or needs that the owner may have, such as administering medication or sticking to a certain feeding schedule. When it comes to walks, I love exploring new areas and finding fun spots to take the dogs. Some of my favorite local parks include Avondale, South Lakes, Quakertown, and North Lakes. Whether it's a nearby park, a scenic trail, or just a quiet residential street with lots of smells to sniff, I am always up for an adventure. I make sure to follow all safety protocols, such as using a leash and picking up after the dog, to ensure that we have a fun and safe experience together.

Availability
As a graduate student with a flexible day job, I have a lot of free time to devote to pet care. I can easily adjust my schedule to accommodate the needs of pets that I am taking care of. I am available to check in on them multiple times a day if needed, take them for walks or runs, play with them, and provide any necessary medication or specialized care. I am also able to provide overnight care and can stay in the pet's home to ensure that they feel comfortable and secure in their own environment. I am very responsible and reliable, so pet owners can rest assured that their furry friends are in good hands. Overall, pet care is a priority in my daily and weekly routine and I make sure to schedule my other commitments around it.
