Enthusiastic affectionate dog lover

Pet care experience

Growing up with 2 large dogs, one golden doodle, and one mutt, as well as three cats, I have always been comfortable with animals. I now have a dog of my own - Gertie, a 35lb heeler/pointer mix - she LOVES other dogs and your pup would be right at home in you should choose me to sit your pup. I am tall, strong, athletic, enthusiastic, and more than capable of walking dogs, no matter their size. I am also experienced dealing with aggressive dogs - one of my dogs growing up was alpha male. More than anything, I genuinely LOVE playing with dogs. I look forward to walking, playing, and caring for yours! Thank you.

I highly recommend Abby! She was able to work with us when we booked last minute. She was awesome with our crazy bunch. Will definitely book with her in the future!

Abby was just fantastic with Yeti. She and Yeti connected right from the start and Yeti was a real happy boy. We received daily updates/photos on his status and Abby was really easy and good to work with. Yeti and I can highly recommend here. She has a true patience for dogs and it shows. Thank you again for taking such good care of the big boy Yeti. :-)

Abby P is truly gifted when it comes to dogs. They are instantly drawn to her and fall in love with her. She has tons of experience with her own dogs and others' dogs, including my own. She uses just the right voices for each pup and is deeply caring and kind to all the dogs that she walks and pet-sits. Any pup that gets to hang out with her will be in heaven. She is responsible, dedicated, and thoughtful and always has a positive attitude. I highly recommend hiring her for your pet care!!

Abby has done pet walking and sitting for my dogs over the years and I would recommend her whole heartedly. She is attentive and loving and also uses good judgement around any issues that may arise having to do with safety. She is reliable! She is a good commutator and simply a pleasure.
