Hi, I'm Abbey! I grew up in Iowa with all types of dogs ranging from small to large breeds and I own a mini poodle mix named Phoebe. I was a dog walker all throughout my undergrad years, I have been walking dogs on Wag while in grad school since 2018, and I’m also a Petco Certified Dog Trainer, so I have lots of personal and professional experience caring for dogs. :) I love walking and exploring new neighborhoods so I will be sure to take your pup on walks that will keep them happy and healthy!

I live in the Tri-cities area and am currently available for daytime and night time walks, training and dog sitting. I have a dog of my own but have cared for up to four at a time. My friends all call me to watch their dogs when they are not available. I live in a community with 46 dogs, all of which I know and love. I am not afraid of any breeds and can spoil or follow the strictest rules. I believe each fur baby parent knows best how they want to have their babies cared for.

I've been around animals my entire life, including owning a German Shepherd for 13 years, fostering cats, and caring for an assortment of reptiles, rodents and birds.
I attended Penn Foster to become a Certified Veterinary Technician.
I have almost half a decade of experience in Veterinary Medicine, from monitoring pets during surgical procedures, administering medication, performing blood work and vaccines, to being promoted to Lead Veterinary Technician and Head of Canine and Feline Nutrition, topics I'm extremely passionate about. I also run a small business baking high-quality, low-ingredient healthy dog and cat treats.
I also have managed a luxury dog hotel, so providing amazing care for your fur babies is second nature!
I've been dogsitting and walking dogs for over 15 years, starting when I was a teenager with my family's dogs, then branching out towards friend's and neighbor's dogs as well. I've walked fit-in-your-purse-sized dogs to dogs that look like polar bears! I have taken care of dogs, cats, fish and horses, along with a plethora of rodents and exotics. too, and can care for them while you are away confidently.
While working in the veterinary hospital, I have become extremely knowledgeable and comfortable with all pets. I am very in tune to that and am also certified in fear-free training methods to help ease any pet's uneasiness!
I cannot wait to meet your pet!
