Safety, trust & environment

I’m always mindful of safety. I’ve lived in homes both with and without fenced yards and understand how to keep pets secure in any environment. I’m experienced with crate training and use crates when needed for comfort and safety. During walks, if I see an unknown dog, I always cross the street or create plenty of space to avoid any chance of confrontation-keeping myself between your dog and the other animal. For cats, I always make sure doors and windows are secure so they stay safely inside.

loving Care You Can Count On

Pet care experience

I’ve care for dogs my whole life, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs. I have hands-on experience with training, walking, bathing, and giving medication, including pills for older pups. I’ve also house-sat for friends, making sure their dogs were well-fed, comfortable, and cared for while they were away.

Abigail is a great cat sitter. She made a point of visiting our apartment before she started looking after Dash, which put us at ease. She kept us updated on him with photos and observations. She even offered to stop by outside the scheduled time to refill his water. I recommend her!

Thankful Note yo Abigail who stayed with our 2 doggies/Jack Russel/Luf and Lola. We asked Abbie to take them outside twice a day but she even stopped in the afternoon time to feed them, play with them and take them outside. We are Happy that we met Abigail on Rover and were able travel to Europe for a week. Thank you Again!!

We used Abigail to house sit and watch our dog and cat for a week. It was a pleasure to work with her, and she was very responsive and would send pics and update daily.

Abby is an excellent dog sitter. My dog was given a ton of love and my house was in good order when we returned from our vacation. We received daily pics and I'm pretty sure my dog would have been fine if we never returned! Abby obviously loves animals and is a responsible and reasonably priced sitter. Highly recommend!
