Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog lover in PDX
I have taken care of dogs for over 10 years and have also taken care of farm animals. I genuinely love animals. I am currently applying to PhD programs. I love the environment and animals and hope to be able to walk your dog! I live near a wonderful dog park and love my neighborhood. I also know how to make dogs feel comfortable as they meet new people and are exposed to others. I am flexible and am open to odd hours of the day. I also really believe in making pets feel as though they are at home and with their owners. Thank you for the opportunity to care after your doggo! I really look forward to meeting you and your dog.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Abby was an amazing dog walker and my dog loved her! She communicated well, sent lots of photos, and even walked a little extra on the time. I'll definitely use her services again in the future!
Abby is one of the most thoughtful and kind individuals I've encountered. Her level of commitment and ability to work well under pressure astounds me. Abby takes every opportunity to make sure that her responsibilities are met with care and efficiency. She works very hard to meet the needs of each pet she looks after and showers them in love and play time. I highly recommend her services to watch over your beloved pets.

Schedule
Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. I have my own pet at home, so caring for animals is already woven into my mornings, evenings, and weekends. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, or an overnight stay, I build my schedule around making sure every pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and companionship, just as I do for my own.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and boarding, so my approach adjusts to each situation. In a client’s home, I follow their routines closely — feeding schedules, walk times, and any special instructions to keep things familiar and low-stress. When pets stay in my home for boarding, I treat them like my own: safe spaces, regular potty breaks, and plenty of supervision throughout the day.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day includes a good walk or hike to burn off energy, followed by playtime like fetch in the yard. I also like mixing in puzzle toys and simple training games to keep things mentally engaging, then winding down with relaxed cuddle time indoors so every pet gets a nice balance of activity and rest. I live near a dog park so love taking dogs that I am sitting there.
