Safety, trust & environment

I make sure that your pet’s needs are met while giving them some love and attention while you are away! Walks are my favorite, but I also enjoy chilling on a couch snuggling and watching a show. I will also clean up if any messes are made (as a pet parent I know this all too well).

Information Abigail D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or accommodations. I have experience with large and small dogs with special needs and I will be happy to assist them as needed. Please also let me know if your dog has any triggers for aggression such as food aggression, territorial aggressions, or toy aggression. I want to make your pet feel as safe and comfortable as possible.

A typical day

I love spending time with dogs in the spaces that they feel most comfortable. If they like to be outside and are high energy, I would love to take them for walks or bring them to a fenced in area where they can run around and play with any of their toys. I love to take walks through the park, downtown, and even stop to get a pup cup for a little treat! If your dog is more relaxed, I am just as happy sitting on the couch with them and watching their favorite show.

Pet care experience

I have 18 years of experience taking care of pets including large and small dogs, puppy and senior dogs, birds, cats and fish. I currently take care of 2 dogs in my family, one large and one small, and the large one has special needs. I have experience administering oral medication and subcutaneous injections, and have had many years of reading domestic animal behavior . I have treated dogs and cats abroad at a shelter in Thailand so I have some experience with shy and nervous animals as well. During my visits, I like to focus on mental enrichment and some fun energetic play time!

Abigail was wonderful! She was able to easily handle my large, reactive dog and all of her quirks. Timely and good communication as well.
