"Because Pets Deserve the Best"

Pet care experience

I go above and beyond to ensure every animal feels safe, loved, and cared for in my hands. With experience administering medications and caring for pets with special needs, I’m attentive to even the smallest details. My passion extends to all animals—whether it’s providing enrichment for dogs and cats or deep-cleaning litter boxes to keep pets comfortable and happy. I pride myself on reliability, compassion, and tailoring my care to meet the unique needs of every pet and household.

Safety, trust & environment

"I provide personalized care tailored to each pet’s unique needs, For in-home care, I create a safe and comfortable environment with plenty of space for play, rest, and enrichment activities. I stick to the pet’s regular schedule, including feeding, walks, medication, and cuddles. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I ensure their routine is uninterrupted, maintaining their comfort and security in their familiar surroundings. I keep the home clean, respect house rules, and provide updates to give owners peace of mind. My focus is always on creating a stress-free, loving experience for pets while their owners are away."

Information Abigail W. would like to know about your pet

1. Basic Info: Pet’s name, species, breed, age, and size. 2. Personality: Are they friendly, shy, or protective? Any triggers like loud noises? 3. Routine: Feeding schedule, exercise needs, and bathroom habits. 4. Health: Medical conditions, medications, allergies, and vet contact. 5. Training: Commands they know and house rules (e.g., no furniture). 6. Comfort: Favorite toys, treats, and items that make them feel secure.

A typical day

When watching pets, I focus on keeping them happy, active, and comfortable by tailoring activities to their preferences. For energetic dogs, games like fetch, tug-of-war, or a fun walk to explore new sights and smells can be exciting. Cats often enjoy laser pointer play, chasing feather wands, or exploring interactive toys. Quiet moments like cuddling, gentle brushing, or a relaxing nap together are perfect for pets who prefer calm companionship. For added fun, I might set up a mini obstacle course or use treat-dispensing toys to stimulate their minds. Every activity is chosen to ensure they feel loved, safe, and entertained.
