Plenty of hikes/cuddles/bellyrubs!
Pet care experience
>I have a large and well-kept grassy backyard (I have moved since my last review!) >I am closeby Arcata Community Forest for hiking, and local parks for less strenuous walks >Sometimes I like to go to the beach, farms or river for a change of scenery if appropriate As a caretaker I tend to be sensitive to individual pup personalities I am caring for...and I am always reliable for a hike or a cuddle, whatever your doggo needs! I am comfortable with a variety of breeds and conditions having cared for my own and the dogs of families/friends. In the past my family owned a pair of active black labs and we took care of their puppies before finding them new homes a few times. A couple of years later on we owned a very nervous chihuahua who always stayed indoors. On my own I have cared for dogs of friends big, small, young and old over the last four years. Now I am looking forward to meeting the ones who bring light to your family!
Reviews
Abbie was awesome. Took Ripley for many walks and we received lots of pictures and updates. Ripley can be a bit high strung (poodle bichon mix) and she seemed perfectly happy and relaxed when we picked her up.
Abbie took great care of our dog, Hank, and we could not recommend her highly enough. She worked with us on short notice, and was very responsible to have Hank meet the other dog she was watching before taking him on for doggy day care. It is always hard for us to leave him behind for anything, but we felt good knowing that Abbie was taking such good care of him. She left us a very detailed summary and lots of great pictures so we know how good of a time he had, and can see how much effort she put in to making sure he felt loved. Would definitely want to work with Abbie again if we ever come back through this area.
Abbe is wonderful! We were able to meet with her before completing the booking, and she showed us her house and yard. While we were gone, she sent not only photos but also updates several times a day. The first one arrived before we had even left town. Our dog had been very nervous when we dropped him off, and she texted to tell us she had cuddled with him and he was no longer quivering. That allowed us to start our out-of-town trip feeling relaxed. I know he loved the long walks she took him on. We will definitely use her again!
Abbie did a nice job caring for Tulip and Einstein for two days while we were off hiking. Steiner got plenty of cuddles and Tulip got quite a lot of fetching (her passion). Abbie sent us pictures of the multiple walks she took them on. The only downside is not Abbie's fault. She lives in a basement apartment in a large house. The landlord obviously has no interest in maintaining their property. The front and side yards are greatly overgrown with weeds and blackberries. The backyard for doggie play is not much better. Abbie has an interest in relocation. I hope she does.

A typical day
I live in the heart of Arcata where there are many engaging outdoor areas to explore with your doggo! I enjoy accompanied hikes in the community forest and walks through the local parks and neighborhood to keep us active. I also have a comfortable home and a large yard for pups who like to stay home! Be assured there won’t be any Ruh-Ro’s on my watch!
