Safety, trust & environment

One thing to know is that I am a sucker. One look from some puppy eyes and I cave so easily. I tend to spoil animals with lots of love and cuddles and treats! I love doing training w/ doggos to see all their tricks and to see them learn something new!

Information Abby G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any health issues the dog may have so I can prepare properly. Also let me know important personality traits I should know about the dog like if they are able to interact with other dogs, if they have any triggers, etc.

A typical day

I’m very patient with dogs on their walks and gladly let them get their sniffs out whenever they’re interested! I also like to play little attention games while walking with dogs to keep their energy up and mind learning too! I love a good couch cuddle too

Pet care experience

I frequently dogsit for friends and family and have plenty of experience with all types of personality— high energy, low energy, friendly, etc. I also volunteered at a shelter that almost exclusively took in mothering/pregnant dogs and their puppies so I have experience with very young dogs. Can’t wait to meet some more pups!

Abby was very communicative, sent pics, and took the dogs on many walks. She wrote with concerns and questions, which we appreciated a lot!

Abby is kind, reliable, and clearly is an animal lover! It’s so nice to know that my 10-yr old pup is in good hands.

Abby has continually made herself available, even at a days notice, to take care of my Golden Retriever and has went above and beyond to care for him while I’m away! I feel fortunate for her willingness and confident in her care. I will continue booking with her as long as I can!

Abby is terrific! She has helped me with dog walking following a surgery and I couldn’t be more pleased. Most importantly, my dog loves her and is always happy when she’s back from their walks. Abby is extremely reliable, straightforward with communicating, and a lovely person! I would highly recommend Abby to anyone looking for high quality and trustworthy pet care.
