Your best friend’s new best friend

Pet care experience

I have had dogs my whole life. I love all animals, and they have been therapy for me. I treat my own dogs like family and they are SPOILED. I have 3 dogs and they are very friendly. Since I no longer live at my parents house with them, at least once a week I take them to get a treat from the pet store or a pupacino from Starbucks after they’ve had a bath. If you’re more strict with your animal I will follow your guidelines, but if you like to spoil them I will love to! I’m good with understanding each animals boundaries and what they are comfortable with. Your animals are well taken care of with me! I have experience with many other animals besides dogs. I’ve cared for monkeys, ferrets, cats and dogs. I haven’t cared for but have knowledge and interacted with snakes, birds, pigs, and horses. I’m decent with training, although I like to stick to your guidelines for consistency. I used to live with my parents and helped take care of 3 dogs. The two “biggies” would sleep with me every night. I now have a rescue cat named Jasmine. I free feed her, meaning whenever her bowl is empty I give her more and let her eat as she pleases. She is picky sometimes so after a few hours I exchange the food if it hasn’t been eaten. She’s an indoor cat and requires little maintenance.

Abby is MAGNIFICENT! We can not say enough wonderful adjectives to describe how happy we are! Our large mixed breed shepherd/ Rhodesian Ridgeback mix (at 90ish lbs) is a handful and a clingy girl- and Abby was LOVED from the moment they met! We will absolutely be asking for her services again and feel extremely blessed to have found her. She goes above and beyond to keep you informed, with text and pictures. She took extremely good care of our girl and was so wonderful with the house. We had her stay at our home while we were gone and she went above and beyond with EVERYTHING! The house was immaculate and we are again, so grateful! We will ALWAYS use her services when we have to travel without our fur baby! Thank you Abby❤️

As always, Abby took care of everything while we were gone. Our home and our spoiled fur babies are in good hands with her!

Our first time with Abby, we left her housesitting with 3 dogs, 2 chinchillas, and one small parrot. She was fantastic. She hadn't taken care of chinchillas before, but hopped right into that role enthusiastically, and while our chillas are normally shy with strangers, one of them hopped into her lap to socialize. Our timid dog took to her right away. When one of the other dogs took a little longer to warm up to her (he had watched his mama drive away and wasn't happy about that!), she was honest about that, and kept us informed of his progress. We so much appreciated that honesty, really did a lot for our trust in Abby. She was very communicative the whole time, sent pictures, kept us posted on how everything was going. We were able to enjoy our time away, knowing our pets were being loved and cared for in the best of hands. Will definitely be using her in the future!

Information Abby P. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if you crate your animals. I also like to know a specific feeding, walking, and play schedule. I know dogs love to eat, so if I am able to treat them with a puppacino(whipped cream) or some of my leftover chicken let me know!

A typical day

I love cuddling and petting dogs! Walking is okay, but tug of war is the BEST! I really enjoy bonding with animals. Unlike a human, once they love you, they’ll never stop. Plus, you can buy their love with treats ?

Pet care is now my full time business. I’m still at the beginning stages, but working hard to make my dream come true. Caring for animals is my calling. Eventually, I would love to have a sanctuary of my own.
