I live in a 1 bedroom apt by myself in a pet-friendly building where my dog, Birdie, lives with me. My last dog was special needs in her old age, so I have experience taking care of dogs with unique needs and will make sure your dog is well looked after, comfortable, and safe at all times.

Information Abby R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any special needs or personality traits that your pet has ahead of time. I believe all pets are special in their own way and want to make sure I am caring for them and that they are comfortable!

A typical day

We can go to the park if there is one nearby or a lovely stroll around the neighborhood! If I am boarding a dog, they will receive all the cuddles and love that they need while we are at home. We will go on walks 4-5 times a day if your dog is staying with me.

Pet care experience

I'm available for: 1. Boarding in my home (Dogs only and must be housebroken) 2. Daycare 3. Drop-in visits for dogs and cats A little about me - I am originally from New Jersey and moved to LA for grad school at USC 8 years ago. I currently live in Brentwood and am home full-time working remote on the days I’m available throughout the week to care for your pets! I have lots of experience caring for dogs. I have a rescue pup named Birdie who is about 2 years old and has lots of energy! If boarding, your dog will need to do well with other small dogs - she is 9 lbs. A couple years ago I said goodbye to my Silky Terrier, Izzy, who lived an amazing life for 13 years and I grew up with a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. During my dog's old age she had many medical conditions that I learned to care for. She became blind and deaf, so I have extensive experience taking care of special needs dogs or dogs with unique needs! I love taking care of all dogs and all animals! I frequently pet sit for my friends' dogs when they are traveling, and would love to provide my services to all the amazing pets out there. Looking forward to meeting you and your pet(s)!

We had such a great experience with Abby! She took amazing care of Ollie and made him feel so comfortable while I was at work! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly gave him so much love and attention. We would absolutely recommend her!

“Abby was an awesome care giver for my boy. She and her precious pup had never met him before, but not only welcomed him to their home, they became best of friends. Abby sent daily photos of images and videos of play, love and family as I was on the other side of the world, missing my pup dearly. She followed all of my directives to the letter and tucked him to sleep at night and woke him up - in his own home. Abby’s a real pro.” - Tom
