Information Abigail J. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about the temperament of your dog(s) and if your dog(s) have any disabilities and/or special needs that require extra care. I have experience watching a dog that needed eye drops twice a day and another dog that needed a liquid medication to stimulate her appetite.

A typical day

I would be happy to take your dog(s) on one or two walks a day for up to an hour of walking in total. I like to walk in different directions on different days when taking care of the same dog(s). I'd also be happy to play fetch and tug of war with your dog(s).

Abigail always does a great job with Cousteau! Always feel so lucky to have her watch him for us. This is the 3rd time we've had her watch him and will continue to book if availability works out. Thanks, Abigail!

Abigail was great, super understanding with our reactive pup. Highly recommend her to watch your pet. Trustworthy and responsive. I would work with her again!

Abigail watched our dog for us while we were on a short vacation. She was great; very professional and was caring with our dog. Our dog had a skin infection while Abigail was sitting and she handled it well; she immediately called to let us know, stayed home with her, and even cleaned it out. I would definitely recommend her.
