Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’m very mindful with doors, leashes, and overall awareness to make sure pets stay secure at all times. Since I don’t have a fenced yard, I’m very experienced with leash routines and supervised outdoor time. I also love doing meet & greets beforehand whenever possible. It’s a great way to make sure your pet feels comfortable with me and that we’re a good fit for each other before you’re away. In your home, I respect your space and follow all instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent. I’m comfortable with crates, medications if needed, and handling any accidents or messes. I’ll treat your home and your pet with the same level of care I give my own.

Information Abby K. would like to know about your pet

I love learning as much as I can about your pet ahead of time so I can give them the best care possible. Please let me know about their routine, energy level, temperament, and any specific needs or preferences. I’m comfortable with pets who need extra attention, have anxiety, require medications, or have specific habits. No detail is too small, my goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable and cared for as they would be with you.

A typical day

A typical day with me is centered around your pet’s routine. This can include walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m active and love getting dogs outside when appropriate, but I also adjust to each pet’s energy level, whether that’s playtime or a more relaxed, calm environment. I’m home often enough to provide consistent care, and I make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away.

Loving & Reliable Pet Care 🤍

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for dogs for almost 10 years, starting with my own pup, Honey, my sweet (and slightly sassy) Pomeranian. She’s truly part of my everyday life, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from high-energy pups to more anxious or senior pets who need extra attention and patience. I’m very comfortable handling different needs, sticking to routines, and making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away. I’m an active person, so I love getting dogs outside for walks, playtime, or just letting them burn off energy, but I’m just as happy staying in and giving plenty of attention, snuggles, and calm care depending on your pet’s personality. I work with a flexible schedule, which allows me to be very present and attentive when caring for your pet. I know how important consistency is, so I’m happy to follow your exact routines and preferences. Safety is always a priority for me. I’m very mindful with doors, leashes, and overall awareness in the home to make sure your pet stays secure at all times. I’m also experienced with accidents and cleanup, so nothing phases me there. I’d love to care for your pet like they’re my own 🤍

Abby took amazing care of my babies! My dog Buzz tends to be little bit timid but Abby was so accommodating and sweet and Buzz loved her. Will definitely be booking her again!

Wow! What an amazing first experience with Rover and Abby. She took such good care of our puppies. Definitely will rebook with her in the future and don’t look anywhere else she’s the one you want watching your puppies. Highly recommend.

Outstanding service! We had Abby take care of our fur babies for the weekend and it went smooth. Our dogs are energetic at times, and she handled them perfectly. We look forward to using her in the future.
