Dogs need love & training - do both

Pet care experience

I have always been a dog owner since I was young, and understand each dog is unique, with it's own likes/dislikes, personality. I love on a dog, play and roll around, as well as give them lots of attention and exercise. I also know how to gently but clearly guide dogs in appropriate behavior and they know they are not in charge of the humans. I believe in loving dogs but not spoiling them - so, they need routine, purpose, guidance, rest and play, in addition to healthy habits. I will care for your dog with respect and dedication like it is my own; I would not trust my dog to just anyone and I know you wouldn't either. Relax, enjoy time away. Your dog is in good hands.

Angela stopped in to check on my dog while my husband were out of town for a day, we were so glad to have used her. She was punctual and sent lots of updates, overall a great experience. Hopefully my energetic puppy was well behaved enough that she will help us out in the future. :-)

I had a very pleasant experience boarding my elderly dog with Angela in her home; from the initial meet and greet to the time of pick up. This was my first time boarding through Rover.com. Angela was very loving to my dog and made her feel comforted. She listened to my needs and adapted to my dog's routine. My dog never experienced the stress and anxiety with her that she did at a kennel. I would highly recommend her and plan to use her again!

Information Angela P. would like to know about your pet

Just need to know how much they have been socialized around other dogs, people, and kids in case we go to a crowded place. What makes your dog happy vs anxious? What helps your dog to feel safe and secure? I like to also know how your dog does on leash so I am prepared and can keep them safe. What kind of leash training has he or she (and YOU as a pet owner) have? I can work with high energy but I need to know if I am dealing with fear aggressive dogs on leash, since that changes walk times and strategies. I am happy to come to your home if you have cats, but cannot stay overnight due to allergies. For overnight stays with dogs at your home, I can sleep in a bed or on a sofa, I am flexible. But in order to give your dog the best daytime care, I myself need to feel rested -- so I need to sleep by myself, not with your dog. They can be in my room on their own bed or in a crate but not actually in my bed. I cuddle during the day not overnight, LOL.

A typical day

Will go anywhere you dog likes - trails, water, biking, etc Playing ball is great and any other sport or activity like agility or frisbee; whatever I don't know, I can learn! I can also assist with any special training or obedience goals you have so we can keep your dog growing and learning. I can transport your dog if necessary, but it is best to go on foot to our favorite places, since your dog may be anxious in a stranger's car and act differently.
