Animals bring peace to my soul. Growing up, I've always had dogs and cats. I have volunteered with rescue groups and offered transportation, fostering, and vetting. I'm aware that every animal is different, so taking the time to get to know, and understand them is key.

I have 5 dogs myself and have grown up with dogs my whole life! I am also surrounded by cats as each of my 3 siblings has a cat in their home. I am a huge animal lover and I get along quickly with animals. I would love to help take care or babysit yours!!
Abigail can also help with: Pet walking, pet sitting
I love pets and have owned and cared for many dogs. I am willing to walk, do basic grooming (baths/nail clipping), give medications, feed, and play with dogs of all sizes. I have less experience with cats and exotic animals but could easily pick it up!
I love dogs - don't currently have one,
but always have since childhood and I'm a grandmother now. Most of my family members have them also. I feel dog sitting is a opportunity to have a dog in your life and help out the owner
in the process.
