Highlights
Pet care experience
2nd yr Vet Student & Rescue Mom
I've cared for Rescue dogs as a foster mom for the past 10 years. In that time I've experienced a huge variety of medical and behavior needs. That with my experience in the veterinary field, and I'm well equipped to care for anything your baby might need. Senior and medically needy pups will always have a special place in my heart, and I'd love to help you get a break with peace of mind that they are well cared for.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
I had such a great experience and would absolutely recommend Abby to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. She took wonderful care of my German Shepherd, Skye while I was out of town. It was obvious that she genuinely loves animals and treated my dog like one of her own. She was dependable, attentive, and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind. It's never easy to leave your pets, especially when they are such an important part of your life. It means a lot to be able to leave your pet with someone you truly trust, and I never had to worry. I will definitely be using her again!

Schedule
I am a full time vet student, so my schedule varies by day, but on average I'll be at school at 8 am and home between 3 pm and 5 pm. I do come home at lunch to let the dogs out to potty and play for a bit. Our average routine is up around 5:45, let the dogs potty, feed them, then they play for a while, we leave at 7. Our guest pups hang out in their own room and we prepare enrichment toys as needed. I come home to let the dogs out to play for an hour at lunch, typically around 11 or 12. Once I'm home, I let the dogs potty and play, feed them at 5 pm, hang out/play the rest of the night, typically bedtime in their room around 8 pm, if needed around 10 pm I will let the dogs back out to potty.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fully fenced back yard with 5 ft fencing, so you can rest easy that your dog will be safe and secure while pottying and playing. We always supervise while the pups are outside. The 3 senior pups in our home are very used to guests and enjoy playing or can be kept fully separate from guests, if thats what they need.
Pets
A typical day
We tailor each stay to the individual dogs. Basically all pups enjoy playing in the large backyard, cuddling on the couch, and playing with various enrichment activities. Higher energy dogs may enjoy jogs around the neighborhood.
