Experienced and compassionate dog walker/sitter

Pet care experience

Hey, I’m Abi-a dog walker/sitter studying in Brighton. I have years of experience caring for animals- including dog walking (especially puppies), as well as dog/cat sitting, home drop-ins and overnight stays. I am happy to look after any pet, regardless of breed, size or age and will adapt to individual needs to make sure your pet is has the best possible care whilst you’re away. I live in a house in Hollingdean, Brighton which has a large garden and plenty of room to love and care for your beloved pets. However, I am more than happy to drive to you if you feel more happy with your pet being cared for in the comfort of their own home. Since I was a little I have lived in a household full of love and compassion for animals (dogs, cats, stick insects, snails, gerbils, rats.. well yeah you get the gist) and having recently moved to Brighton for university I have had to say farewell to my furry(and not so furry) friends which as you can imagine as a pet owner, was pretty difficult. I am looking to spend some time each week to share my love for animals, whether it be pet sitting, pet daycare, house visiting, cleaning pens, cages, etc or dog walking, anything animal-related I will be willing, so don’t hesitate to ask. My first dog was a medium-sized Brittany Spaniel who I grew up loving and caring for, teaching me a thing or two about spaniels; their energetic personalities and surprising strength. My second pup was a small rescue dog who was one of 6 in a litter left on the side of a road. He was mixed breed; part border terrier (always needing love, affection and lots and lots of attention). And finally, back at my family home in Dorset, I've got a 4-year-old large black lab, who is massively soppy and a 1-year-old Border x Cairn terrier who is extremely loving but also incredibly energetic and vocal. I have plenty of experience with different breeds which extends beyond my family dogs. I also have plenty of feline experience, back at home I have 3 cats- 1 beautiful Moggy who had 7(unexpected) kittens, one of which we kept, they are now both over 10 years old. As well as this we have another unexpected kitty who I rescued from our garden hedge, she was around 4 weeks old when I found her. I weaned and nurtured her watching her grow from weak and fragile to a strong, crazy but loving kitten.

Abi collected and dropped off Mayhem at short notice which was great. Mayhem came back tired which is great, so all good!

Abi was brilliant with our one year old whippet, Rocky. He clearly had a wonderful time and came home happy and tired. Perfect. Thank you also to Abi for good communication and picking up and dropping off. Can't recommend highly enough.

Abi was great, she was really nice, she took on all of our weird requirements, got on super well with our puppy and was really punctual, and communicative. Hope to use her again really soon.

Storm had a great weekend with Abi at her house. She was so relaxed, friendly and helpful and updated us during the weekend. She even came to collect him from us before we went. I would def use again and feel lucky we found her!
