Pet care experience
**Vacation with Aunt Abby**
## My Experience & Passion I'm a dedicated dog lover with personal experience caring for dogs with special needs. I share my home with Eddie Salami, my sweet young man, and I'm currently fostering Lucy Roo, a hound dog born without front legs. Lucy can be a bit cautious during initial meet-and-greets but warms up within minutes. I treat every dog guest as if they were my own family. ## Services Offered **Dog Care:** I welcome dogs into my home and provide comprehensive care including playtime, walks, and overnight stays. **Cat Care:** I'm happy to visit your cat in the comfort of their own home for feeding, play, and companionship. ## My Home Environment Your furry friend will enjoy a safe, spacious 2,000 square foot home with a fully fenced 4-foot high backyard perfect for supervised playtime. Our walkable neighborhood features sidewalks ideal for daily walks. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, including larger breeds. ## Schedule & Availability My work schedule is Monday through Friday, 8am to 5pm. I'm available for midday potty breaks and check-ins during my lunch hour while boarding. I'm home every evening and throughout the weekend, providing plenty of quality time, attention, and care. ## Safety & Comfort - Baby gates help manage space and ensure everyone feels secure - Large kennels available for dogs who prefer crated rest when I'm away (though many guests happily relax in the living room or kitchen) - Dogs are welcome on furniture unless you prefer otherwise - Fresh water available at all times, unless suggested otherwise - Daily backyard playtime and neighborhood walks I believe every pet deserves personalized care and attention, and I'm committed to making their stay comfortable, safe, and fun!

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Abby was great with Scottie! She was super flexible with drop off and pick up. She stayed in contact and I felt comfortable knowing Scottie was in good hands.
Abby is caring for our pets in our home for drop-in visits!
My family had to unexpectedly make a stop at the DeVoss Children's Center, and urgently needed someone to look after our dog for the evening. It was late, but Abby went out of her way to accommodate our doggo. She made us confident we could focus our attention on a sick child. Fenced in yard in nice, city neighborhood. Loads of coach snugs and walks. Great communication. Would recommend Abby again and again. Her compassion and kindness, for dogs and humans, is something rare in today's world. 10/10.
Abby was so kind and helped us in a pinch! She took great care of our little dude.
Abby was great! She followed all my instructions and took pictures. I appreciate her dealing with my older kitty who can be spicy at times.
Abby is awesome! Available last minute and sends great pics and updates.

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Space in my home is controlled with baby gates. I encourage dog guests stay in a kennel/crate when I have to leave home, although there are exceptions. I have large kennels available for safety and security. Dogs are allowed on my furniture, water available all the time, unless instructed otherwise. Playtime in the backyard or on a walk around the neighborhood. Many guest dogs are happy to be in the living room and/or kitchen when I'm gone.
Pets
A typical day
I have a box full of dog toys and bones. I have a 4ft tall fenced backyard for playtime outside off leash. Plenty of walkable sidewalks for sniffing and marking.
