Since graduating high school, I've worked at a large doggy daycare in Westwood, MA for over a year and at one in Colchester, VT for 2.5 years. Around this time was when I really discovered my passion for animals. My goal is to own and manage my own dog daycare and boarding facility.

I genuinely can't even say enough about Abi!! We were planning a visit to see my grandmother in FL. My family rarely goes away, and certainly never all at the same time. I was in desperate search of a pet sitter in the area which is hard to find nearby a small town. We did a meet and greet with Abi and I was certain it would be a great fit. I booked Abi for3 times per day over a 3 day trip but also let her know that the times would likely change depending on how the flights were. My older dog also fell ill and unfortunately had to be put down the morning we left for vacation. Abi was so understanding and accomodating to all of our constant changes. Abi watched my one dog, 14 adult chickens (one broody hen due to hatch chicks during her sitting), my rabbit and all of my garden and plants. I knew my dog, Sissy, was going to have accidents with us being away and being on a schedule. Abi was so understanding with Sissy and treated her so great. Abi also was there for 5 of my broody hens' chicks hatching and was able to adapt to care for them as well. Sissy also spitefully peed on our bed while we were gone and after I let Abi know I saw her do it on camera, Abi was quick to offer to wash ALL of our bedding and get it cleaned up. She washed, dried, and folded all of our bedding. She even did the couple of dishes we had in our sink without being asked. She consistently went above and beyond and took all of the constant changing chaos in stride. She is very professional, responsible, responsive, affectionate and passionate with what she does. I cannot recommend her or thank her enough for taking care of all of my fur babies while I was gone!!

Abi is great. She is on time, gives thorough updates, and points out anything that seems out of the ordinary. My dog loves to see her!

We appreciate Abi so much. We don’t worry about our kitties one bit when we know Abi is watching them. She leaves great Rover cards for each visit and we appreciate seeing pics of the kitties. We don’t know what we’d do without her and we recommend her highly!!!

Abi was wonderful. Her communication was always prompt, and I immediately felt comfortable with her dropping in to watch my kitty. All of the instructions were followed perfectly, and she left detailed messages and great photos in the Rover app. I would absolutely hire Abi again.
