Communicative and flexible sitter!
Pet care experience
I graduated from UW-Milwaukee in December of 2020 and have been doing Rover since September of 2018! Something that sets me apart from other sitters is my personal experience with high-energy and reactive dogs, as I have one of my own. Squirrels, cars, busses, other dogs, I’ve seen it all and would love to get as many details about your dog’s personality and needs when you book with me. Additionally, I go above and beyond to take care of your home as well, whether that means watering plants, feeding the fish, or grabbing any mail and packages that arrive to make sure your time away is truly stress free! I’m a thorough, dedicated, and flexible sitter and will always go out of my way to guarantee you have a stress-free trip. I send updates with video and photo attachments several times a day with some stories or blurbs about what we did and how your furry friends are doing so it feels like you’re still at home, even when you’re away. I treat any dog/cat/other pet like they were my own and they receive tons of love, playtime, and attention.
Reviews
As always, Abby is the best caretaker for our cat!
She's reliable, trustworthy and communicative! All around very happy with her service and care of our cat. We have rebooked her many times.
Abigail has taken care of both our cat and dog while we’re out of town. She’s reliable, professional, and very thorough with the instructions you provide her. Every visit, we receive report of how our animals are doing and included about 20-30 photos, which we adore. She’s very trustworthy and we’re grateful to have someone like her to care for our fur babies. We will continue booking with Abigail! :)
As always, Abby took such great care of our sweet kitty while we were away!

Safety, trust & environment
I do not offer boarding services at my home, but I offer sitting services, which means I stay at your home for the duration of your trip. I always strongly prefer to FaceTime clients before the stay so you can show me your house or apartment and give me all of the details possible, from a sticky difficult lock to details on the alarm system. I treat your home like it is my own and will leave it as clean or cleaner than when I arrived. I also stick to whatever routines you have existing in your home, whether that be walking down the block to the same pee spot or following a specific feeding routine! For me, sitting is all about making sure your animals have no change to the routine and activities they already have and feel calm and relaxed while you’re gone.
Information Abigail L. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know any house rules you have that you’d like me to be aware of so I can enforce them just as you would yourself! I also like to know how they behave or any other triggers in the environment so I can be prepared for whatever may cross our path and know how your pet will react before it happens! No breed preferences; every dog and pet in general has their own quirks and loveable traits. I also need to know any medical conditions and diagnoses (FIV for cats, for example) that can be passed from animal to animal in order to best care for your pet and ensure safety for any other bookings I have at the time.
A typical day
I love playtime and keeping the same routines that you do when you’re gone. So if that means walking the same route every day, or playing with a certain toy, I’m game for anything! I love cuddles, keeping them entertained, and giving them tons of love and affection while you’re gone to ease any anxiety of traveling you may have.

Availability
I’m available for early mornings, late evenings, and everything in between. Aside from holiday weekends, I can typically accommodate last-minute requests as well. However, some holidays are more open than others and I’d love to get in touch and figure out an option that works best for your family and needs!
