Pet care experience
My first experience taking care of dogs was at the tender age of 3. I was given a small chihuahua that my parents adopted from a mall kiosk. It was a battery-powered dog, and not real--but I loved him--and that was the first time I knew I was a dog person. When I was 12 years old, my father came home on my birthday with a golden retriever named Ginger. I would help train Ginger, make sure she was well fell and hydrated, bring her to the vet, give her baths, take her out on runs, play fetch, read a book next to her while she did daily dog things. After I moved to San Francisco for University, I became a DOGOSF volunteer, where I am able to take shelter dogs for a day out in the town for some healthy activity and to provide information to people who may be interested in adopting the dogs. I have been volunteering with DOGO for almost 2 years, so it is safe to say that I have had lots of experience with walking dogs of different breeds and sizes. I am available for dog walking primarily in the mornings on Tuesdays-Fridays, 7:30-9:00 am, and in the afternoons on Wednesdays and Fridays from 4:30-6:00pm. My weekend schedule is flexible!
Reviews
Angela is one of the few people I would trust to be responsible and respectful with my pets or any of my belongings. She's always been a hard worker, very caring, empathetic, understanding, and has a great sense of humor!
Angela is one of the most caring people I have ever met and loves dogs with all her heart. I lived with her for a year in college and she was an amazing and responsible housemate. If I had a dog, the first person I'd ask to take care of it would be Angela.
I have known Angela for over 3years and trust her completely to care for my two Special Needs dogs!! I have a blind dog and a dog who has 3 legs and has had extensive surgery, and I feel very confident in Angela's ability to care for them. Angela is loving & compassionate towards my dogs and they clearly Love her!! I feel like Angela makes a wonderful dog walker & sitter because she really cares for dogs (and cats -- I have two!!) and she is also a very responsible person who takes her commitments seriously. I think you will be very happy with your choice to utilize Angela for your dog's care, I cannot recommend her highly enough!! You can feel confident that your fur- baby will receive excellent care when with Angela!!
I've known Angela for about 8 years now and she's always been very responsible and outgoing. She cares a lot about animals and is great with dogs! You should feel super comfortable leaving your dog in her care.
About Angela C.
Skills
Information Angela C. would like to know about your pet
Before meeting your dog, I would like to know what your dog likes doing, if they are okay around other dogs and other people, if there are any medical conditions I should be aware about or anything I should avoid.
A typical day
My favorite places to take dogs are areas that are spacious and as natural as possible. For example, Golden Gate Park, the Corona Heights dog park, Ocean Beach, Crissy Fields, and other open spaces that are dog-friendly. Sometimes, of course, if time is an issue, a classic walk around the block can be just as nice, I would just be sure to avoid overly-congested areas for the safety and leisureliness of the walk. I am willing to go on runs with dogs as I consider myself an active person, especially as a Kinesiology student, but can also just sit back and play fetch if that is what your dog enjoys doing the most. All dogs that I take on walks will be sure to get lots of pats and love as well.
