About Abby

I’ve always loved animals, especially small dogs. I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you’re away. Living in an apartment, I focus on small breeds and create a calm, cosy space where they can relax. I take my time getting to know each dog and treat them like my own.

I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I always aim to give you peace of mind with consistent care, supervision, and attention to each dog’s routine and behaviour.

My own dog is friendly, and I prefer to introduce any visiting dogs to him slowly and calmly, usually outside first at a local park to make sure everyone is comfortable.

I usually prefer to take one small dog at a time to ensure full attention and care. However, if you have two dogs from the same household who cannot be separated, I’m happy to care for both.

I grew up with five family dogs and have regularly pet sat for friends and relatives, so I’m confident with different personalities and adjust my care depending on each dog’s needs.

My dog has a bed in both the living room and my room, so visiting dogs are welcome to rest comfortably in shared spaces. Dogs are fed before I leave for work and again when I return home.

I work from home on some days, and on office days I ensure dogs are settled with toys and enrichment to keep them mentally stimulated. Dogs are usually left alone for up to 8–9 hours max, and I always check in on their comfort before and after.

I walk dogs daily for 30–60 minutes once I’m home, usually around safe local streets and nearby parks suitable for small dogs.

In case of emergencies, I act quickly and responsibly and will take pets to the nearest veterinary hospitals in Melbourne, such as Lort Smith Animal Hospital (North Melbourne) or Melbourne Veterinary Specialist Centre (Werribee), depending on urgency and location.

I only accept fully vaccinated and neutered small dogs to keep things safe for everyone.
