Pet care experience

Nurse who loves animals!

Hi! Some things you might like to know about me: I’m a wife, I love animals (obviously) the outdoors, gardening, reading, history and I’m a nurse who graduated from Saint Vincent college - I could be a great fit for you and your pet! I’ve had many growing up: dogs, cats, goats, chickens and bunnies. I’m very comfortable with caring for animals and have experience with all different kinds from my own pets, friends, and animal shelter volunteering. I’m also open to watch and care for any other types of pets that might not fit the category of cat or dog! Message me so we can discuss!

Safety, trust & environment

I’m a very responsible and organized person, so I could safely play with your dog(s) or cat(s) in your home or around the neighborhood. Being a nurse has made me much more aware and attentive of needs such as fresh water availability, food, safety and happiness for both people and animals!

Abby took such wonderful care of my kitties. Her photos of them were immaculate- capturing their unique personalities. It is so nice to see my kitties in good spirits while I am away- and she made sure they were fed, had their water, played with them, and even scooped their poop!!! Amazing!!!! Her updates were on point- bringing me peace while I was away! She even took in one of my packages on my porch. Extremely kind. I totally suggest her to anyone with a kitty in the area that needs a little care :)

Abby is the BEST!! Her communication is amazing and she took such good care of our babies, even going above and beyond, such as hand feeding one of ours that was having a harder time being separated from us. We were new to Rover and anxious to leave our dogs with anyone other than family for the first time, but Abby put our minds at ease from the start with lots of pictures and she was amazing at keeping in touch if she had any questions. Our dogs loved her and we are so thankful for all that she did for them! Would definitely recommend!

Loved Abby Jo! She came to meet my pup ahead of time and made sure she was comfortable with her. She checked in and gave lots of belly rubs. Awesome experience and will definitely have Abby Jo back to help take care of Milli!

Schedule

As a nurse, I only work 3 days per week! Typically one time or “on occasion” jobs work best, and attending 2x daily might not be possible if it’s on a day that i work and my 3 days that I work vary from week to week. However, please reach out anyways to see if this could be a perfect fit! I’d love to see what i could do.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs

Abby Jo can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
please me know if your pet has any special needs, preferences, likes or dislikes and how I can give them the best care possible! I’m willing to do my best to accommodate!
