Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable, Active, Loving Dog Care
Nothing makes me happier than walking, cuddling, and playing with dogs. I’ve grown up with dogs, and I believe every pup deserves loving, attentive care. As a master’s student in psychology, I bring a solid understanding of behavior and training, which helps me connect with dogs of all temperaments. I’m also a marathon runner, so if you have an energetic pup who needs some extra exercise, I’m the perfect match!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I make safety and comfort my top priorities. For walks, I choose safe, familiar routes and go at your dog's pace, whether they want a sniffari or to get some pent up energy out, I'm up for the task. For house sitting, I always follow routines and house rules, and I treat every pet like my own, with patience, love, and respect, so you can feel confident they’re in caring hands.
Ratings and reviews
Abigail is lovely and very accommodating! She has been receptive to last minute changes i have had to make and is very kind and understanding. My dog also warmed up to her quickly after one or two walks, he will show signs of being afraid if he is indeed afraid, but he is very welcoming of abigail in our home! We will continue to book with her as she has been so good to us 🙂
Abigail R. cancelled a booking 2 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Abigail was so incredibly patient and took amazing care of our dog despite the various health/behavior challenges.
Abigail is a great candidate to walk dogs as she has lots of previous experience in training and walking dogs, having grown up around them and volunteering for services such as Elder Dog. Additionally, as an avid runner, she can talk them long distances.

Schedule
I'm currently a Master's student at the U of A, and so I have a fairly flexible schedule. I am available almost any day of the week because of this, and can go for walks or runs with your dog almost daily.
