A true and sincere animal lover! 🐾

Pet care experience

I have taken care of all sorts of dogs and cats over the course of my life. I absolutely love animals and believe they need the utmost love and attention, especially when their owner is away! My neighbors, friends, and family have depended on me to take care of their fur babies since I was in high school. Please don’t be deterred by my rates- send me a message with what you are looking for and we can work something out to accommodate your needs! I have a very loving and playful golden retriever, Henry, who enjoys two walks a day and plays in the fenced in backyard. We often bring our neighbors’ dogs over to play with Henry in the backyard, playing fetch or tug of war. Our animals and the animals that come into our home are loved and cared for 100% of the time. They have access to the entire home, couch and beds included! We have multiple dog cameras set up around my home for us to keep an eye on them while away. So don’t ever hesitate to reach out to check in on your pup! I promise to take so many pictures and videos for you!

Abby was an amazing sitter for Bear. Bear and Henry played the entire time and Bear loved his stayed. Abby was very good in giving up dates and making sure Bear had everything he needed. Abby was very kind and sweet to Bear and I. I would 100% let her watch Bear again.

Have used Abby for both daycare and boarding and it’s been great every time! She cares for my dog like it’s her own, sends plenty of pictures, and embraces the energy! My go to sitter!

Abby was great with my dog Arrow. He had injured his paw the night before she came and she followed all the care directions and provided him with loving care while I was gone. She is also an awesome house guest and very responsive providing regular updates. Arrow loves being with her, which is the best any dog owner can ask for!

I have a fenced in yard and my pup, Henry is EXTREMELY friendly with all dogs. He learns quickly about other dogs’ mannerisms and will keep his distance if need be. Depending on what service you choose- in my home, your pup will be treated like one of the family with Henry. I am very proactive with ensuring the fence gates are shut and I have an automatic foot motion (it’s like second nature now 😜) when I open the doors to outside to ensure no escape artists are successful! I promise to love and care for you dog like one of my own. I can’t express to you the amount of love I will have for your pup the moment I meet them!! Please rest assured your furry family members will be in the utmost care with me. ❤️

Information Abby M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any special needs or care your pet has that I should be aware of. I know firsthand how important this is, as my dog has some things that need to be cared for, too. FOOD: has your dog eaten around other dogs? Have they shown signs of resource guarding? Should I feed your pup in a separate room from my dog-Henry is SO sweet and doesn’t touch other dogs’ food, but food aggressive pups tend to not like anyone near them so I need to confirm. Please share any medical conditions- I promise there is nothing too big or too small to share just share it all. POTTY TRAINED: please, please, please be honest. If you know your dog is trained, but slips up every now and then please just tell me. I won’t mind if I know in advance. I just need to know if your dog needs to be watched at all times so I can plan accordingly. Does your dog do well with other dogs (on walks)? Cats? Does your dog chase animals or pull on a walk? Can strangers stop and pet your dog? Any information you think is important for me to be aware of, please don’t hesitate to share. Thanks!!

A typical day

I have a very high energy dog, so trust me when I say I am more than happy to help stimulate your pup while under my care! My neighborhood is the perfect place for walks and we typically play fetch or tug of war in our fenced in back yard.

⭐️ Please note when scheduling pick up/drop off times that I am a teacher, so I work normal school hours. I can do early morning drop offs before 6:30 AM or afternoon drop offs after 4:30 PM during the weekdays. I’m available any time on the weekends for pick up/drop off. Thank you for your understanding. ⭐️ I take pet care very seriously and will follow your routine to the best of my ability. Please share what your normal routine looks like with your pup and I will do my best to incorporate it into my daily routine. Henry and I enjoy playing in my yard early in the morning and later in the afternoon. We enjoy a nice walk around my dog friendly neighborhood in the evenings.
