Pet care experience

Let me love on your fur babies!

I come from a family of vets— loving animals is in by blood! From my first job at a dog boarding company, to training and protecting my anxious 80lb pibble, to long cuddles with my lazy couch potato hound, to say I’ve learned a lot about dog care and psychology is an understatement. I believe all animals deserve our respect, and understanding various energy levels and the needs that come with them is part of that! I’ve trained puppies, care for sick elder dogs, and everything in between. I approach dogs with a gentle and nonthreatening energy in order to win trust and make them feel as safe as I can!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When I petsit, I empathize with what pets are going through when their parents are gone. I try to spend as much time with them as I can whether it’s just being present in the house, cuddles on the couch, playing with toys, or taking long walks together. And if your pup enjoys adventures, I’m here for it!

If I had a will, my dog would be willed to Abby in it in the event of my passing. There’s no other person that I would trust so completely with my pup. Abby goes above and beyond to make sure our furchildren are well exercised, fed and entertained. 10/10 woofs!

Abby has been loving on my dog for nearly four years. He's a high energy dog who, let's face it, can be awfully annoying at times. Abby approaches caring for him with patience and kindness (but isn't afraid to demand good manners). She has the capacity to give dogs long walks, the patience to befriend a shy or scared cat, and the confidence to get the respect of challenging dogs without sacrificing playful kindness. Plus she's great with people too! Your pet might not know it yet, but they really want to be friends with Abby.

Abby is responsible, safe and caring. She loves to spend time with our animals and pays close attention to each of their needs. I love that she gets to know each animal as an individual and learns their quirks, you can tell she comes from a house with pets! I would recommend her as a pet sitter and dog walker to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind :)

Schedule

I am available for as many drop ins or playdates at your home during the morning, days and evenings as you feel comfortable with-- I’m a stay at home mom so I’m flexible! I will most likely have my 1 year old with me if it’s during the workday but will keep her strapped to my back both for your pets’ safety and hers. She’s a fellow animal lover!

Would love to know their energy level, likes, and dislikes! Also what their day usually looks like, so I can try my best to replicate what they’re used to. And of course, any medications or special health needs!
