Highlights
Pet care experience
You’re furfriends are my furfriends
I’ve been obsessed with dogs as long as I could remember. My college graduation gift to myself was my princess, Effie a cane corso. Now that she’s gone, I have to send my love somewhere else! Giant breeds have always been my love, but my 4lb yorkie holds place in my heart too. I worked at doggy daycare previously and volunteered at the APL for about a year. If I could save all the dogs I would. It’s what I’m doing this side gig for, to buy a house with property so I can rescue another dog. I’ve housesat and dogsat for all my friends and family since I was 16. No furbaby goes unloved just because you need to leave the house. This is what I’m great at.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
We've used Abigail for years and she's been AMAZING. Great with communication, handling our dogs and also amazing with my Mom as well.
Abigail H. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.
Aby took such good care of our dog! She stayed in our home for six nights while we were away. She sent photos periodically and our dog seemed so happy and relaxed the whole time. She left the house in great order and brought in our mail as well. Would definitely hire her again.
Abigail did an awesome job with my pup. We will def use her again in the future.
Abby, thank you so much for taking care of Chloe. She’s acting super happy, and super tired. Which usually happens when she’s played a ton with her doggy friends. Thank you for being so flexible with us, and our stay at the hospital. Scott & Angie
Great communication and flexible. Thanks!

Schedule
I work remotely from my laptop so I can go wherever you need me as long as wifi can be provided. Then I can love your pet all day long while answering emails. If you want me to board your pup that works too. Meet & greets include dog-to-dog introductions and supervised play in our backyard. Owners can observe from our office overlooking the yard, which helps keep the dogs relaxed—especially our human-selective pup.

Safety, trust & environment
I have experience walking my own 120lb mastiff. She has pretty good leash manners however when that stray cat comes by, rest assured I can hold her back. Therefore you know I can handle most dogs. I also have worked with many different kind of crates so if a dog needs to be put back when I leave your home I am able to do that. I also am very good at following instructions if any medicine is needed to be given. Following pet parent instructions was pertinent when I worked with the doggy daycare as some pets stayed over while parents were out of town.
Pets
A typical day
I love to know what your pets like to do. Are they a fetch player in your backyard? If so we will throw the ball until they call it quits. Do they prefer snuggles on the couch like my mastiff couch potato? If so I have plenty to watch on Netflix for lots of snuggle. I am also a big time tug of war, hide and seek, and Kong filler expert. Whatever your pup is used to we can do.

- Some pups have quirks different than my own. Does your dog not like to eat while your gone? Are they hand fed like my yorkie? Do they need to be enticed with peanut butter? Any allergies? What about the furniture? Any houses we need to avoid on walks. You tell me your day to day and we will mimic to keep their schedule and life as normal as possible without their humans.
