Safety, trust & environment

With extreme attention to detail, I will make sure your furry friend is walked and cared for exactly how you prefer. I understand that there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to pet care, and every dog is unique. So, getting to know you and your dog is of utmost importance to me.

Information Abigail W. would like to know about your pet

Does your pet have any allergies or a sensitive tummy? Feeding schedules and medication dosages? Leash reactivity? How does your dog prefer to be greeted and how do they react towards new people?

A typical day

Dogs need more than just physical exercise, their brains need exercise too! I’m huge on implementing enrichment activities for the dogs I care for to both ease stress and keep their brains occupied. From treat puzzles to snuffle mats to long walks along the beach, I cater my care to each dog’s needs

Trustworthy & Tailored Care

Pet care experience

*I am FULLY INSURED through Pet Sitters Associates as an extra layer of support and peace of mind while your dog is in my care!* As a full time higher education professional with a true passion for dogs, I spent my free time throughout my college and graduate school years getting professional experience in the dog care industry. Through my years working in a dog daycare setting I have learned crucial dog handling skills including reading dog body language, working with reactive dogs, basic obedience training, and medication dosing. My dedication spanned to working overnight shifts where I cared for boarding dogs ranging from 6 months to 14 years of age. With these important skills under my belt, I am hoping to keep utilizing them in the time I have beyond my 9-5. I am currently raising my own pup, Otis, to be the best gentleman he can be! I have absolutely adored the dog training process, and love watching him succeed. I would love to do the same for your dog. With years of professional experience and a passion to keep dog care in my life, you can be confident that your dog is under trustworthy and thoughtful supervision. I look forward to befriending your best friend!! 🐾

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
