Putting your fur babies first :)
Pet care experience
Hi! I'm a responsible and warm animal lover who always puts the well-being of the fur babies first. I am very comfortable with enforcing training behaviors with your own pups - I have my own medium-sized dog I raised through puppyhood who's always receiving compliments on how well-behaved he is since I've taken him to various extensive training courses including obedience and agility. Of course, I give a ton of love as well!! I regularly take care of neighbors' and friends' dogs (puppies, adults, and seniors included) and I am highly trusted by all of them. I also grew up taking care of a family cat since I was 13, and a family dog since I was 18.
Reviews
I'm so happy we left our pup in the care of Angela and her husband. We've had other sitters in the past that we would have to follow up with but not with Angela. Every day we would get updates and photos. She also kept our pup busy and active which I definitely appreciated. I'm also glad that her pup and my pup got along just well. Boba is such a sweetie! Best booking by far. Highly recommend booking her!
Angela was a great communicator and sent pictures and videos of Mango throughout the days. Angela and her husband have the sweetest and such well trained dog, Boba who gets along with anyone!
So glad we found Boba’s family on Rover! They’re very thoughtful and communicative. Blueberry loves going over, and she seems a bit sad when she has to go back home.
Angela, Chi, and Boba were the best! They were all very patient with my dog Chopin, despite him being a bit difficult. They gave Chopin lots of love and attention and used their dog knowledge to adapt to Chopin's needs. Even though Chopin started getting food possessive and a bit territorial. Boba was generous in sharing his space and proceeded with caution. Would highly recommend them to anyone and everyone! Very wonderful family and home!

Safety, trust & environment
I provide drop-in visits, dog-walking, daycare, and boarding. In my clients' homes, I am always respectful and follow all instructions to a tee. I take the time to earn your pet's trust in the environment and form that is safest for them, and I'm always happy to provide love and affection to the pets that want it! For dog-walking, I have had to train my own leash-reactive dog to walk nicely on a leash, so I have experience in both leash training as well as leash reactivity. For boarding and daycare, I would require your dog to be friendly with other dogs. My dog is extremely friendly and chill and is a great addition to your dog's boarding experience. I will also make sure your dog gets enforced nap time if necessary. I ensure at least one 30-minute walk for your pup during daycare, and more as necessary. I live near a park so I'm happy to take them there if you would like. As the weather gets warmer, we also regularly go hiking on the weekends, and would be more than happy to take your pup for some outdoor fun! As always, I would need lots of information to make sure I am providing the best and safest environment for your fur baby.

Information Angela G. would like to know about your pet
- Are they friendly with other dogs? - Are there any specific triggers that I should avoid? - What commands and words do you generally use? - How often do they need to potty? - How long do they generally like to be walked? - What kind of stimulation or fun do they enjoy? - Are you working on any training that I can help enforce? - Are there any ingredients in dog treats that they cannot have?
A typical day
I love to take dogs on walks around the neighbourhood and to explore new areas with them. We also often play fetch in my apartment, play hide and seek with some treats, cuddle, or play puzzle games. Other times, I just sit back and supervise their play time with my own dog!

Availability
My whole motto is that a great relationship is based off of trust. I take my time to go at your fur baby's pace and to build a high level of trust. I'm currently working on a hybrid schedule so I am home on certain days of the week and available throughout most of the day. I do have some work meetings but I'm always willing to work with you to figure out a time that works for all of us.
