Experienced, reliable, loving care.

Pet care experience

Hiya! Thanks for stopping by! I’m Abbie and I bring 37 years of pet sitting experience to your home and loved fur family. I am mostly here for drop-in care and walkies because I have my own Fur Squad at home, but if we are a good fit I can do short duration overnight stays here and there. I work from home so I have tons of flexibility to provide reliable, loving care for your fur babies with excellent communication and plenty of pics! At 14 I started overnight pet-sitting for family friends and continued through my teens, college and adult years. I grew up caring for all the family pets—dogs, cats, turtles, snakes and the occasional o’possum rescue. My personal and pet sitting experience includes kitties, puppies, active dogs, high energy dogs, senior and special needs dogs (I have a tender soft spot for the Old Bones), giving oral meds, subcutaneous injections, saline drips. I have rehabbed 3 ACL (knee) surgeries and have other post-op, wound care experience. I have found, fostered and re-homed several (including my own) Mexican street rescue dogs and cats including 2000 miles of car travel and transport across the border for 2 different doggos to their furever homes. And with years raising chickens and rabbits I can make sure yours are well cared for too! If your doggie needs some extra adventure, we can make additional arrangements for a cool splash adventure in the river or a hike in a local canyon. General rates will be adjusted as per you and your pet's needs.

Kudos to Abbie for her wonderful pet service! I sometimes need help with my Heeler for walks/dinner when my work schedule gets wonky and Abby has been fantastic ... reliable, communicative and a true animal lover. She gets my highest recommendation.

My dog Oso absolutely loves Abbie! He runs to the window looking for her if I say her name! We used her to give him pee breaks and play time through all of his puppy era. She understands dog body language well and helped with his formative training. Abbie is our trusted and reliable source for on-call walks and hikes since we work long hours and can’t always personally give him the exercise he deserves.
