I love dogs of all sizes!
Pet care experience
Having grown up with a dog in my household, I have been used to caring for dogs, whether it be feeding, walking, bathing, etc., from a very young age. I was about 14 years old when I officially watched someones dog for the first time and I have loved it ever since! After having to put our family dog down at an old age, we never got another dog, so I always value the time I spend with dogs in other families and give them all of the love and attention I would give my own! I have watched dogs from anywhere between 10 pounds to 70, and anywhere from 7 months old to 14 years old! I feel as though I have handled a large variety of dogs so I am able to deal with anything then may throw at me! I would love to help make sure your dog gets plenty of attention and love while you are away!
Reviews
Abby is an absolute doll! I'm pretty sure my puggle, Rufus, likes her better than his own family! :) She is very affectionate toward him and I know he is well cared for and happy when Abby dog sits.
Abby is a very responsible, hard working, amazing person to work with. Every time my family and I go on vacation, she watches our dog with no problem and makes us feel safe with leaving our dog at home. She loves animals and is always positive and willing to do anything. She is the only person I would trust in my home and with my pets. She is a kind, compassionate young adult and is overall a great person.
Abby is by far our first choice when we need a dog sitter. She has cared for our dog from when Sammy was a puppy to now in her senior years. Sammy is a golden doodle and has a high need companionship and attention - we are confident in Abby’s care to meet to needs. Abby is a good communicator and shares on a regular basis or as needs/ or funny stories arise. Abby has a loving heart for animals, is trustworthy, and our dog loves her. We would be happy to provide personal references upon request.

Safety, trust & environment
I live in a house with a large yard. While the yard isn't fenced in, we do live in a quiet, residential area and would be able to provide frequent walks. I also live in close proximity to several state and town parks and recreational areas, and feel more than comfortable transporting the dogs there safely in order to bring them for a fun, outdoor excursion!

I have watched everything from a chihuahua to a pitbull mix and everything in between! I love dogs of all shapes and sizes!
A typical day
I love bringing dogs for walks or hikes. However, this will be determined based off the comfort level of the owners. As much as I like to bring them on hikes or walks, I know it's important to keep dogs on their regular schedule and I don't want to take them too far out of their comfort zone! I look forward to working with each and every client to determine what activities and schedule would work best for their preferences and for their dog!
