Highlights
Pet care experience
Please let me play with your pets!
I've had animals my entire life. Taking care of our dogs, cats, chickens, goats, and reptiles were one of my main responsibilities growing up. I am a very quiet and calm person which makes me very good around the more cautious critters.
Cat care experience
Abigail also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I don't have the ability to keep any pets in my own apartment but I have a car and am able to get around in Ames. I grew up in scouts and the first point of the scout law is trustworthy.
Ratings and reviews

Abby was a great sitter !
Abby is a great pet owner when she's home, especially when the weather is cold. They would always bundle up to take their dogs on walks, while keeping conscious of the cold and the differences in how long both of their dogs could handle it, often putting in the effort to take two loops to get more activity in for the bigger dog under their care while keeping the smaller dog safe from too much cold exposure.
I have known Abigail for a very long time and she has always had a knack with animals. Over the years she has cared for all kinds of small animals including lizards, snakes and bugs. She can calm even the most anxious of dog or cat and animals love her. She also has experience in chicken wrangling, caring for goats, and has even helped deliver a goat or two. She years of experience with horses, both tending them, riding them and training them to support people with disabilities. Abigail would be a wonderful addition to your pet care team.
