Safety, trust & environment

During house visits or drop-ins, I will carefully follow instructions and make sure the doors are locked when I enter/leave. I will respect your space and make sure animals are safely settled in the right place before leaving. I will ensure dog collars are secure before stepping outdoors and keep dogs on leash at all times when outdoors.

Pet care experience

*ABOUT ME* One of my favorite parts of childhood was naming my pet cats (from “Princess Kate” to “Snowball,” the options were endless!). As a shy child visiting friends’ houses, you would find me spending the time in the company of the resident pets. Now, I love befriending people too, but my love for animals never left me. It brings me joy to be with animals and show them my love! Whether that means stroking their noses, keeping litter boxes clean, or patrolling hairballs. I am highly observant and will adjust to your pets’ energy level and personality. I will eagerly play hide-and-seek or tag with your dog or cat in the yard or sit and bird-watch through an open window. (And, while I’m not a professional singer, cats seem to like my vibrato). :) *Older Adult Care & Special Skills* In my personal life, my experience in older adult care means I am naturally attentive, gentle, and highly patient. I am respectful of following routines and instructions, making me a perfect fit for senior pets who need a slower pace, comfort, and extra patience. I am fully comfortable following exact food schedules and watching over multiple cats at once. *Your Home and Trust* I treat your pets and your home with respect. I am highly communicative and will enjoy sending pictures to brighten your day.

Abbi is a wonderful pet sitter! She has house-sat for my family, taking care of our three high maintenance and crazy cats for a couple weeks. She is very kind and considerate and keeps our kitties’ care and safety as a high priority! She sends photos to us of the cats while we’re away, which is very comforting and adorable. Abbi for the win!

Abigail has a sincere love for and delight in animals. She is conscientious to the needs of each pet, she will go all-out in playing with them and keeping them engaged, and she loves any and all cuddles. She is very observant and has great situational awareness, so she comes with a lot of experience, ideas, and wisdom. I would ask her to care for my pet any day!

Abbi is a wonderful pet-sitter! She has cared for our three cats with attentive care. We found her to be a very good listener, following all instructions and also using her common sense when caring for our beloved cats. It's such a comfort to leave our cats in her care when we are away because we know they will be loved and tended to with gentleness. We highly recommend Abbi!
