Dependable Dog Mom to Love Your Pup

A lifelong dog lover of all breeds, I was raised in a family with Max the beagle, Lucy the bearded collie and Tyler the bichon. As an adult, I had 14 wonderful years spoiling my blind rescue pup Pugsley, and after he crossed the 🌈 last year, I adopted my sweet chiweenie rescue pup, Chickpea. I have long depended on Rover sitters for my own dog's care while traveling, so I know first hand how nerve wracking it can be to be away so I’m happy to return the favor and provide you peace of mind. I'm currently home full-time and very flexible to attend to your dog's particular needs and preferences. Reach out for a meet and greet today!

Doggy Day Care • nov. 11, 2024

Abby was wonderful and took such a great care of Uni. They played all day, went on multiple walks and sent tons of photos and updates. I would definitely use her again :) And thank you Pugsley for having enough patience with Uni’s unlimited puppy energy!!

Abby is the BEST dog sitter. She’s been a dog owner for over a decade and takes care of my dog, Winnie, like she’s her own. Always remembers medicines or whatever else Winnie needs and sends the BEST pupdates with pics and info. Winnie is not comfortable with most people but looooves Auntie Abby!

Abby is a dog lover, through and through. She may be tiny but I've never seen a dog breed that intimidates her. Her pup, Pugsley, has benefitted from her dedication, caring, and love for long walks. Even though Pugs is older now, Abby has trained him to be comfortable in his Little Chonk backpack and they make for a happy duo walking around Central Park and the Upper West Side. Abby has also taken great care of my sassy dog over the years, administering daily eye ointment for her when I'm gone for the weekend. Abby's apartment is spacious, with more dog beds than you can count and dog-friendly furniture. Any pooch would be happy and safe in her home!
