Trustworthy Dog Lover

Pet care experience

I’ve met some remarkable people and pups on this app! A couple of years into my life in Philly, now living on the Kingsessing border in West. Active artist and musician, and lifelong animal lover. I have experience with all types of animals but am definitely a dog person. I have in my house currently 3 dogs of my own and 1 stray ACCT helped me emergency foster. So be forewarned my house is busy, but I assure you my dogs are an incredibly kind pack to come hang with! To come hang in a daycare setting we’d just have to have a meetup beforehand. Experience I bring: - Have lived in houses and had solo walks with up to six dogs at a time. - Have done long term dog sits with both puppies and senior dogs up to 6 months at a time in my own home. - Have fostered all sorts of terriers, coonhounds, retrievers, shepards, and pointers. Comfortable with all “aggressive” breeds, high energy, or assertive behavior. - Respectful and sincere! Considerate and kind! Have excellent personal and professional references. - Passionate pet photographer ❤️ 📸 @life_and_dogs - Avid hiker. Happy to do off leash hikes with the right pups, once the bond is established. - Lifelong vegetarian, 7 years practicing compassionate vegan. - Over 15 years in the hospitality and customer service industry. You matter to me! I sincerely hope to hear from you, and I can hardly wait to start taking care of your your precious babies. Come hang with my awesome pack!

Abel is an incredibly caring, loving, and responsible dog caregiver. I can't think of anyone who I would trust more to take care of my own animals. He truly loves all dogs and sees the good in each one. I cannot recommend Abel enough as a dog sitter--he is truly a one of a kind person with a huge heart and love for all.

I have seen firsthand the happiness of an Abel and dog combo. Copper was Abel's last dog. He lived a long happy life and accompanied Abel everywhere that a dog was allowed. Abel is patient, loving, nurturing, responsible and fun when it comes to his dog family. I would trust him with my dog and my kid at the same time, which says so much coming from me. He's seriously such a good person and any dog would love to have him as a best friend.

Abel is the absolute best with dogs. I’ve known him for several years and he’s always treated my two dogs as if they were his own. He’s great with pups of any age and loves them all to pieces. I would trust him with any animal. He would do whatever it takes to make sure a dog in his care is happy, healthy, and safe.
