Availability
If you desire, I would be available for overnight visits as I currently do not have other responsibilities that would prevent this. Outside of unusual circumstances, my availability is generally open for the entire week. I might be absent for some time throughout the day due to appointments and tending to other needs of mine, but if your pet's routine follows a certain schedule, I can make adjustments to mine.

About Angela P.
Communication
Safety, trust & environment
I will make certain to follow the instructions that I am provided, as well as to receive the information of relevant veterinary services and known health concerns. And as you do with caring for any pet, you take time to make certain hazards remain out of reach. In addition to safety, I will maintain communication with my clients as the care of their pets (and their homes) is a concern. Also, considering the current times, I can assure you that I have been fully vaccinated against the coronavirus and will provide you the supporting documentation. I also take other precautions, such as wearing masks by request, to prevent the spread of the virus. I also have an insurance policy through Pet Care Insurance, as accidents can happen. I have received certifications through Allegany College of Maryland with Dr. Jeffrey Grognet's "Starting a Pet Sitting Business" course and Pet Emergency Academy's "Canine and Feline CPR and First Aid" course.
Information Angela P. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know how your cat is around strangers: I understand that some cats are particularly skittish around those who they don't know. I would like to know this as I know that cats who are typically open all people sometimes hide when they develop a health concern. Also, if your cat regularly hides from strangers, I would like to know of their usual hiding places so that I peek in and see how they are doing after to tend to their other needs.
A typical day
When caring for cats, what I tend to do first is feed them and take care of their water. I'll go about cleaning their dishes before giving them meals. If the cat desires company, I stay with them as they eat. After that, I take care of scooping the litter box. I sweep the area after that so no one tracks any litter around the house. Throughout the day, I spend time talking to the cat, playing with them with their toys, petting them, and so forth. This amount of activity can vary depending upon the personality of the cat. I repeat the routine of feeding, watering, and cleaning the litter box in the evening.

A Staycation for Cats
Pet care experience
I will not be taking any new bookings for July 2026. Due to health-related reasons, I will not be taking any house sitting requests from new customers at this time and that I may not necessarily be available to take house sitting requests for current customers. (I will still do house sitting visits I already have booked.) - - - - - Since a very young age, I have cared for cats and kittens. This includes cats who are quite affectionate and live indoors to those who are feral. Like humans, I understand that cats have different personalities from each other as well as different needs. In regards to kittens, I have not had to do not have experience with advanced care such as feeding bottle babies, but I am very well aware of their stages of development, socialization with their mother and each other, and overall health and welfare. I can assure you that I can properly tend to kittens that have been weened and sufficiently litter trained. I do have experience with giving cats oral medication, caring for senior cats, and providing exercise to high-energy cats. Also, as part from my undergraduate work, I cared for the animals at the science building at Towson University. I had learned of basic care for small animals such as mice, rats, and gerbils, as well as box turtles, red-eared spiders, ball pythons and corn snakes. I have personal experience with caring for bettas and African dwarf frogs, too. PLEASE NOTE: I DO NOT PROVIDE SERVICES FOR DOGS, AS I LACK PROPER EXPERIENCE TO WORK WITH THEM. ROVER CURRENTLY DOES NOT HAVE A METHOD FOR ME TO REMOVE ANY DOG-RELATED QUESTIONS OR FIELDS FROM MY PROFILE AT THIS TIME.
Reviews
Angela took great care of my 5 cats while we were out of town. She provided an update everyday and pictures. I feel at ease while being away knowing that my cats are in great hands. I appreciate her care.
Thank you so much for taking such good care of my girls again! They will see you soon.
As always, a wonderful job! I appreciate how Angela cares for our fur babies including handling the medicine and other special needs. Her daily reports are detailed and informative. 10/10 would recommend.
Once again Angela has done a wonderful job with our 4 cats. One of the cats is extremely shy around anybody new and he finally came out to say hi to her for this cat-sitting ❤️. Angela is the best!
