About Abigail M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
In client’s homes I always take extra precautions to ensure the safety of the animals. This includes keeping them on leash when outside of a secure area. Never leaving them unsupervised in the backyard, and carefully following all instructions from their owner. In my own home, I have a fully fenced in yard with plenty of room to run around. I however prefer to walk dogs at the park across the street from my house for mental enrichment and exercise. My wooden fence is very secure with no gaps that small dogs slip through and is over 7 feet tall to ensure the safety of anyone who visits. I never leave my dogs or any animals in my care unattended in the backyard for safety reasons. I have a very friendly and well behaved German Shepherd that is great with all dogs and loves to cuddle with cats. I have multiple crates available and can easily keep everyone separated if needed.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. I am more than willing to accommodate dogs that are not friendly if I know in advance.

Depending on the individual dog, some fun activities during the day include: walks through the neighborhood, one on one play, hikes at the local park, specially made frozen treats. Training sessions are also offered for an additional cost.

Pet care experience
I have 5 years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals while pet sitting and working as a pet caregiver and receptionist at Hound Haven Dog Grooming. I’ve worked with puppies, senior dogs, and pets with special needs, handling tasks like feeding, walking, administering medication, bathing, and providing comfort during boarding stays. I’ve also supported adoption events, created pet content on social media, and communicated with pet parents to ensure the best care possible. I have also been a professional dog trainer since 2023. Taking on one dog at a time to ensure quality training. My personal dogs, a Chihuahua and Working Line German Shepherd, compete in a variety of different competitions like agility and protection sports. My experience with different breeds, ages, and temperaments has given me the skills to confidently care for any pet.

Reviews
Abigail was amazing with our four Goldens and two cats. Our pets truly enjoyed being with her this weekend.
Highly recommend! She accommodated any need and really took good care of Dante while I was away. Great communication and check ins and sent pictures daily.
I can’t recommend Abigail enough! She is incredibly responsible, kind, and truly loves animals. Every time she’s cared for my pups, I’ve had total peace of mind knowing they’re in great hands. She’s attentive to their needs, keeps me updated, and goes above and beyond to make sure they’re happy and comfortable. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pets like family, Abigail is the one to contact!
