Loving your pup as much as you do!

Pet care experience

What sets me apart as a dog sitter and walker is my extensive experience and dedication to providing specialized care for dogs of all ages and needs. One of my unique skills is my ability to work with both puppies and senior dogs. For puppies, I understand the importance of consistent routines and positive reinforcement to foster good habits. When it comes to senior dogs, I excel in providing attentive care tailored to their specific requirements. I have cared for older dogs with special diets and medications, ensuring they receive their meals and medications on time and in accordance with their health needs. I am also experienced in accommodating mobility issues and providing gentle exercise appropriate for older dogs to keep them comfortable and happy. My approach to dog sitting and walking is based on compassion, patience, and reliability. I strive to create a safe and nurturing environment for every dog in my care, adapting my services to meet their individual needs and preferences. I believe in open communication with pet owners to ensure their peace of mind and the well-being of their beloved companions. I am committed to delivering exceptional service and building lasting relationships with both dogs and their owners. I have absolutely loved animals my entire life. I look forward to the opportunity to provide top-quality care for your pets!

Abby is the most responsible person I know. She is so diligent about everything she does and is an excellent planner. Not only is she these things but she's also the definition of what a good person is. She loves everything that life has to offer , especially animals! I would trust her with my pet friend any time, she will be an excellent addition to Rover!

If I had to choose one person to take care of my dogs, it would be Abby every time. She is very diligent with my fur babys and she had puppy-sat for me many times, I had a senior Mini Pin with an extensive list of medications and health needs and she followed his regimen to a T. She would take him to dog parks, walks, brush his teeth without me asking, trim his nails even though it was very difficult to do so. He would be like a whole new puppy Everytime I saw him. Near the end he had a more complex diet and she was able to mix his food the way he needed even if things were to change. If he ever stopped eating Abby would try the other safe foods as well to make sure he had at least something to eat. Anyone would be lucky to have Abby watch their fur babys!

Abby is a very reliable and respectful person. She is active and I have trusted her with my large dog for 2 years now. 10/10.

In both my home and my clients' homes, I prioritize the well-being and comfort of the pets under my care. The specific approach varies based on the service provided: **Pet Sitting at My Home:** When pets stay with me, they become part of my family. I ensure a safe and welcoming environment where they have ample space to relax and play. They receive regular feeding as per their schedule and dietary requirements. I maintain cleanliness and provide cozy bedding for their comfort. Daily exercise and playtime are incorporated into their routine to keep them active and happy. Most importantly, I offer plenty of love and attention to make them feel at ease in a new setting. **Pet Sitting at Client's Home:** For in-home pet sitting, I aim to replicate the familiar routines and environment that pets are accustomed to. I follow detailed instructions provided by the owners regarding feeding schedules, medication administration (if needed), and any specific care requirements. I prioritize maintaining the cleanliness and security of the home, including regular litter box cleaning for cats and waste disposal for dogs. I engage in activities that keep pets stimulated and entertained, such as interactive play, walks in their favorite spots, and lots of affectionate attention. **Dog Walking:** During walks, I focus on providing exercise, mental stimulation, and social interaction for dogs. I adhere to safe walking practices, using proper leashes and harnesses as needed. I tailor the walk duration and pace based on the dog's energy level and physical condition. I always carry water and treats for rewards and hydration, ensuring a positive experience for the dogs in my care. In all scenarios, I prioritize open communication with pet owners, providing updates and photos to keep them informed and reassured about their pet's well-being. My goal is to create a seamless and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners, whether in my home or theirs.
