Pet care experience

Taking care of animals has been a lifelong passion of mine. I’ve had the privilege of sharing my home with dogs, cats, and other pets throughout my life, and I’ve also worked at a barn caring for a variety of animals, including horses. With over 15 years of hands-on experience, I’m well-versed in meeting the needs of pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs and cats. Whether it’s ensuring their health and safety, keeping them entertained, or simply giving them love and attention, I bring dedication and a deep understanding to every pet I care for.

Abigail arrived on time, fed my puppy, and gave him plenty of cuddles.

Great communication, lots of photos. Maggie got plenty of exercise and came home exhausted! Will use again.

Abigail was awesome with my two dogs! I had a fairly last minute trip and she took great care of them on short notice. She sent lots of pictures and the dogs seemed super well settled in and taken care of during their stay!

Abigail was a LIFESAVER. She was polite and on time and took amazing care of my cats. She went above and beyond on her last day when she noticed an emergency in my kitchen. She handled it perfectly and I was SO thankful for her care and and attention to detail

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a spacious ground-floor apartment in Kitchener, which is part of a charming old house. While I don’t have a backyard, my home is dog-friendly, and there are plenty of nearby walking paths and parks where your pup can enjoy fresh air and exercise. I’ve previously cared for dogs who love their zoomies, and I’m always excited to explore the great outdoors with your furry friend. Currently, I share my home with my cat, who is friendly but independent, so I’m comfortable balancing the needs of multiple pets in a calm and harmonious environment. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I’ll ensure they feel secure and loved while in my care.

Information Abigail C. would like to know about your pet

Before sitting for your pet, I’d love to learn: Their usual behaviors, both good and mischievous. Any specific medical or dietary needs. Their exercise preferences and daily routines. Their favorite toys, treats, and activities. If you’re looking for a responsible, caring, and enthusiastic sitter or walker for your pet, I’d be thrilled to help. Let’s work together to ensure your furry companion has a safe and happy experience. I can’t wait to meet your pet and provide them with all the love, care, and attention they deserve!

A typical day

A typical day with your pet would include plenty of playtime, walks to explore the outdoors, and lots of love and attention. I’ll follow their usual routine to help them feel at ease, whether that means sticking to a specific feeding schedule, going on leisurely strolls, or engaging in their favorite activities. After some fun and exercise, we can relax together to ensure they feel calm and comfortable. If your pet has specific needs, I’m happy to incorporate those into our daily routine.
