Vet student dog walking and pet sitting!
Pet care experience
Local vet student who is craving animal interaction! I am a recent Bioveterinary science (hons) graduate and I am now tackling a veterinary medicine degree! This means I have huge amounts of experience in looking after a vast variety of animals and will absolutely adore your dogs and cats. I am also happy to cater to special medicinal requests if needed. I am happy to pop in to feed cats/water plants etc. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets even for a few hours but I promise they will be in good hands :) Thank you very much for viewing and considering my profile, I look forward to working with you and your lovely animals! Over my summer breaks I have sporadic weeks of placement that will blocked off my calendar, other than this I am completely free over the week and weekend! Due to the nature of my studies I understand animal behaviour and why certain problems arise and I know it is so important for a dog to get to know and trust me when coming into their home! As each pet is unique I aim for an animal-lead experience and will let them lead the way with what they are most comfortable with.
Reviews
Abbie was brilliant. Completely reliable and great with the dogs. Thank you!
Abbie has helped me out twice now walking Satchmo when I've needed to go out for the day. Abbie has been professional at all times & I would have no hesitation in recommending her. Am grateful & will be asking Abbie to help out again !!
Felt very happy and at ease leaving my puppy Elmo (3 and 1/2 months old) with Abbie who managed to juggle things around to look after him on short notice which was amazing. I was able to get everything done without having to worry about him which was lovely as I could tell he was in great hands. He was fast asleep when I arrived to collect him and clearly felt right at home! Thanks again, Elmo & Leanne
My Mia is a very nervous and needy dog and I was worried she would not settle, but she soon settled with Abbie & I was send a photo and update to put my mind at rest. We will definitely be leaving Mia with Abbie again.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I will tailor each walk to the individual dogs needs, if you let me know they prefer to be kept away from other dogs or on the lead that is absolutely fine, I want you to feel comfortable in the knowledge that your dog is safe and protected in my company. This is of course the same in their home environment, I will provide for their individual needs and adapt to their home environment.
Information Abbie O. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know any behavioural/ social issues that I need to be aware of when walking and interacting with your animal, such as separation anxiety, thank you!
A typical day
I am very active myself so I am happy to take active dogs on larger walks, I often go for runs so if this is something you think your dog would like to join me on please let me know! I am equally as happy to sit around and provide cuddles for older, less active pups.

Availability
I’m a full time student so very flexible and always available on weekends. I can move work around to suit dog sitting requirements so if you have a particular schedule I need to fit in with please let me know and I will try and move things around if needed.
