Pet care experience

Type-A WFH Dog Mom with fenced yard

I have been taking care of dogs for 10 plus years! I have 2 Doberman Pinchers that are my whole world! I am comfortable with both large and small dogs and have a soft spot for Dobermans, Labs, and German Shepherds! We do not crate our dogs, but do have a safe quiet place for dogs that are crate trained and like a safe space! I treat my dogs as if they were my children and will do the same for your 4-legged kiddos!

Abby has watched our dog Rocky several times and has always done a wonderful job! Rocky is a rescue, and a terrier, and she let him take his own time getting to know her and her 2 dobie's (both great). This last time presented some unusual challenges, and Abby went above and beyond to make sure Rocky felt safe with her and that we could continue our vacation. She has always communicated well, and has been fantastic with all of her care. I would highly recommend her for your pet!! I can't say it enough. She's great.

We had such a wonderful experience with Abby while she boarded Bella and Axle during our vacation. She went above and beyond to keep us updated with regular messages and the sweetest pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she truly cared for them and made them feel comfortable and loved. Knowing they were in such good hands allowed us to fully enjoy our trip. I would highly recommend Abby to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and attentive for their pets!

Schedule

I work from home M-F! I wake up around 5am to take my dogs for a 3 mile walk! Your pup can join in too! Well trained pups can join me at that barn in the evening if they wish! Most weekends involve dog related activities (hikes, festivals, or hanging out with our pups)!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced in (5 foot) backyard and two friendly Dobermans that enjoy company! I work from home and never leave my dogs alone for more than 2-3 hours. I have a partially finished basement where our pups play when the weather isn’t ideal! For lazy pups, Moose loves someone to snuggle and for those with more energy Maple Syrup loves someone to run circles with. My dogs sleep in bed with me, but I also have several dog beds all over the house. We also allow pups on our couch! My dogs are our family and we will treat your pets as family too! Their life is too short to be anything but fun and leaving them behind is hard, but I send pictures and updates and like to keep pet parents informed!!

Pets

A typical day

If your pup loves long walks around the neighborhood or playing chase, I have a friend for them! If your pup loves laying in bed, sunbathing in the grass, or short walks in the park, I also have a friend for them! Maple Syrup and Moose have yet to find a friend they don’t like! After losing their German Shepherd brother Bear last year, having other pups around has helped heal our hearts!
