Highlights
Pet care experience
Absolutely adore pets!
I have been caring for dogs for about 16 years now. I got my first dog, Sammy, in 2009 and I got my second dog, Penny, in 2017. My dogs were my best friends growing up. They both sadly passed away in 2023 and I miss them everyday. I have pet sat for multiple people around our community for both dogs and cats. I have done several volunteer experiences throughout the years with animals, including equine therapy and fostering a dog in college. During my breaks home from college, I worked in boarding at a local veterinary clinic. I gained valuable experience in grooming and administering medications with pets of various ages, sizes, and temperaments.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Abby did drop in visits 3x per day for our golden, cats and turtle and was phenomenal. She gave lots of updates and photos for each visit. She went above and beyond and I would highly recommend her to anyone needing help with their pets!!!
Abby is amazing! This is the first time we left our dog with anyone outside of family. Honey was happy and healthy when we picked her up and we felt like she was a part of Abby‘s family. We will definitely be booking Abby in the future, she really is awesome!
Thank you for taking such great care of our pup. The pictures and video showed just how comfortable and excited he was to see you.
Abigail was very reliable and took great care of my cat. She’s was kind and thoughtful.
Abigail did great with our dog! She only takes one client at a time and doesn’t have pets herself, so she was able to give our dog lots of love. She sent lots of updates and pics. Would definitely have our pup stay with Abigail again soon!
Abbie did a phenomenal job boarding and caring for our 13 yr old kitty Finxie! After our meet and greet, I was confident Abbie would be an excellent caregiver. She learned how to give Finxie her insulin injections 2x a day and continued with an antibiotic prescribed for an ear infection. Abbie provided us with daily updates and pics, kept us informed of how Finxie was taking her meds, and made sure Finxie was comfortable in her home. I highly recommend Abbie if you need any kind of sitter or boarding for your furry family member, she is a sweet, genuine young woman and has a heart of gold. Thank you so much Abbie! We're so grateful for your loving care of Finxie!

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
For boarding, I am currently living at home with family in JCP. We have a spacious fenced in yard. There is no smokers, children, or other pets in the house. We are all huge animal lovers! For drop ins, I have a car to get to any place needed. Safety is absolutely my number one priority for your pets. Feel free to reach out with any questions!
A typical day
I will take your dogs outside and play with them, whether that’s playing fetch, running around the yard, or playing tug of war. If they have more of a chill temperament, I’ll sit outside with them and soak up the rays. I will take your dogs for walks if requested and let them sniff around the neighborhood. I will be sure to give your pets extra pets and attention. If you have any preferences for activities you would like me to do with your pet, please let me know!
