Cat & Dog lover/trainer (AKC Cert)

Pet care experience

I would love to meet and care for your special family members! I have taken 4 courses on service and therapy dog training and am a certified trainer through a local non-profit service dog training organization affiliated with my university (specifics available upon request). I am a teaching assistant for the courses and have been a foster/handler for service dogs in-training for 3 years. I have a lot of experience with training positive behaviors. I am also AKC Certified in several of their programs. My own cats are trained and I have helped train friends' cats to use the toilet. I also dog and cat sit for the 2 international student recruiters who extensively travel for my university. I love animals and will take very good care of your furry family members. I have so much fun training dogs and will treat yours like family! I have always had dogs and cats growing up. Additionally, I am willing to travel to home-sit longer distances, if transportation costs are provided. I will always send pictures of your buddy with a short message about how s/he is doing. It's tough being away from your fur-baby, so I make it a priority to communicate with you to know s/he is comfortable and having a great vacation!

Angela is great! You can tell she knows what she's doing, and her animals are all super sweet and friendly which I know my dog enjoyed. She sent daily updates and let me know what was going on which is always great. I feel 100% comfortable leaving my dog with them again, and will definitely do so!

Angela was amazing! She was able to take care of my dog, Rambo, on short notice after I called out for a weekend. She sent constant updates with pics and videos. She made me feel comfortable with leaving Rambo with her. She even left some notes on how it went and how to train Rambo. I would definitely recommend Angela!!!

Angela stayed for a week in our home to watch the dogs. She sent daily updates and showed care and affection for our pups. We appreciated her responsiveness and communication. We will definitely hire her again!

Information Angela F. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know about any "problem" or quirky behaviors, such as resource guarding, leash reactivity, fear, aggression, stranger anxiety, dislike of of any particular population (such as cats, children, etc.), medication needs, physical issues, house training, crate training, length of time can be alone and if must be crated if not monitored, allergies, if "counter surfs", gets into the garbage, typical daily routine, and anything that would make the dog or cat more comfortable with a stranger. I do not have a breed preference. I have interacted with dogs as small as Chihuahuas to full-grown English Mastiffs. Your fur-kid has his/her own personality and needs. It is my pleasure to always put him/her first and create a fun, stress-free environment! I want to send home happy pets. That is my goal!

A typical day

I take the puppers to parks, rail trails, sidewalks, and anywhere that safe for the dogs. Sometimes we will just hang out in the yard on nice days! I have many toys to tug, play fetch, and if the dog has good socialization skills, we can go to the local dog parks to play and interact with other dogs. Also, I am an excellent swimmer, so if there is water around and the dog enjoys swimming, we can go for a nice swim! I have always had cats and know how to roll with their different personalities and make friends with them! Additionally, I make home-made, healthy treats and only use store-bought treats from the USA. This allows me to be confident I am rewarding the puppers with good stuff! Just as a side note, I am an AKC STAR Puppy Trainer, CGC Evaluator, and CGC Urban Evaluator, so I can also help and continue your training efforts. I also am available for private sessions.
