Highlights
Pet care experience
Family-stay in work-from-home house
I love having animals in my home, but don't want the long term commitment of owning my own pets at this time. I have owned animals for a large portion of my life and would love to share this experience with my family of 4. I will play-with and care for your pets as if they were part of the family. I have some experience with puppies and kittens, and also have some experience caring for senior animals including administering a variety of medication (including insulin shots), and tooth brushing.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Angela was wonderful with our dog Bentley. She has a calm, caring presence and he enjoyed all the outdoor time he had. Angela was very responsive and sent photos of all the fun he was having. I highly recommend Angela and will definitely contact her again to watch Bentley.
Angela took such good care of my boy, including a midday report on their neighbourhood adventures and part-time with other doggos. He's been flat out asleep since the moment we arrived home.
Archer clearly had a great time with Angela and her family. They took great care of him and we will definitely rebook again!
I can’t recommend Angela enough! She took such amazing care of my dog and made the whole experience feel easy and stress-free. It was clear right away how kind, attentive, and experienced her and her family are, and I really appreciated the communication, updates, and photos while I was away. My dog seemed so happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. It was really lovely knowing my dog was around Angela and her family — you can tell there’s a lot of care and positive energy in that environment. I would absolutely book with Angela again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and genuinely caring.
Angela was so attentive and thoughtful about caring for Ollie and we feel lucky to have found her and her family for future care. It’s always a bit nerve-wrecking to leave your dog with new people. Angela made the process feel seamlessly easy.
Angela & her family are incredibly sweet. Angela asked great questions to make sure Navi was taken care of properly. Definitely rebooking, & definitely recommend if you need your pup watched!

Schedule
I work full-time from home and can be around your pet for most hours of the day. This includes morning and evening walks, and a couple of shorter bathroom breaks during the day. Happy to adjust for your pets needs. On the weekend I will take them for trips to dog parks / dog beaches or for longer walks / hikes where they can have a good run and socialise (depending on your dog's needs). Cat's are always welcome to snuggle with me as I work from home. For more active pets, they can join me on a morning run some days (if they can keep up).
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a house with a fenced back yard. With dogs, I usually keep them on-leash apart from in fenced dog parks where (with the owners consent) I let them off to run around and go bananas for a bit. It really depends on the dog though. With cats, depending on how the cat feels, I can isolate them in one room if they feel more comfortable, or give them free run of the house. Your pet will be close-by with me most of the time as I work, so separation anxiety hopefully won't be a problem.
A typical day
I like to try to get my 10,000 steps in every day and usually go for a longer morning walk / run around the neighbourhood. There are 4 nice parks within an easy distance that I like to take more active dogs to. Senior dogs can have a shorter walk with lots of sniffs closer to home. I then drop my kids off at school (short walk), and usually bring more active dogs with me so they can meet other people's dogs along the way. Older dogs are welcome to join me too if they are able and willing. During the week I take dogs for a shorter lunch-time walk / play with a ball in the garden, and a mid-morning and mid-afternoon sniff close to home as required. We also do an evening walk after dinner around the neighbourhood or sometimes to one of the local parks depending on the light and the weather. On the weekend dogs will have a good run in a dog park where they can play and socialize / a longer walk / hike. (Depending on dog's needs).
