Pet care experience
Hi, there! My name is Abby and I have 5+ years experience working at a dog rescue shelter as well as pet-sitting, and I have owned pets for my entire life. I've worked with and owned both dogs and cats, and I look forward to caring for furry friends of all shapes, sizes, and breeds!
Reviews
Our first Rover experience was nothing but positive thanks to Abby! We will definitely be re-booking woth her when the time comes :-)
Abby came to check on my cat every other day while I was on a trip. She gave thorough and consistent updates, sent pictures, and gave me such peace of mind while I was so far away. She also watered my indoor plants and my small sapling and everything was alive and well when I got home. Would definitely go through her again.
Great as always!
Abby has taken care of my cat a few times now and she is fantastic. Very responsive and caring. I’m grateful to have a sitter I can trust!
About Abby B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets by getting as much detail as possible from owners about their pet(s) as well as how they provide care in their own home. I want to ensure that my introduction into your home and your pet's life results in as little stress for them as possible. To do this, I believe it is important for me to implement the practices you value, whether that be spending extra time on play activities for energetic animals or exercising distance and patience for animals that are more anxious around people. I also am hyper vigilant with pet security and safety, meaning I will triple check things like fence locks, collar and harness tightness, and signals of animal wellbeing.
Information Abby B. would like to know about your pet
If your dog as any special needs or behavioral quirks, I'd love to know beforehand. I want to know as much as I can about how your pet responds and interacts with people in order to make them feel as safe and comfortable around me as possible. Also, if there is anything in particular that scares them, such as other dogs or certain objects in/outside of the home, please let me know.
A typical day
I play fetch and tug of war with dogs, but I also love relaxing with them and giving lots of love and scratches:) I'm more than willing to go on trips to the park and any special spots your furry friend loves. Most importantly, I will do whatever keeps your pet happy, healthy, and having fun! Taking pictures of animals brings me so much joy, so you can expect updates with photos of your dog throughout my time with them. If you prefer for me not take pictures or want fewer updates than I tend to give, please let me know:)
