Pet care experience

2024 Update: I am still willing to provide holiday pet parties for all of my loyal clients (per my availability) but am prioritizing one on one requests so that I can devote more time to my creative gifts of art & writing. Providing quality pet care is my passion! I specialize in spoiling pets & gently train puppies effectively (as a perk if needed). You will receive excellent photographs & videos of your pet/s from me each day. (Pet sitting rates are per 24 hours which essentially means daycare/overnight/& the next full day) I stay with them 24/7. I have no other jobs, commitments, animals, children, etc. so I am all about your pets the entire time! Only spring water is given. I am a very conscientious person with plenty of common sense! I also have a huge heart for animals. I want you to have complete peace of mind while away and absolute confidence that your pet/s are receiving the most tender loving care. I LOVE all animals, genuinely. I strive to give your pet/s the best exclusive care around the clock. I'm very present during any stay - proactive and consistent with their care, walks, meals, naps, hugs, etc. They are never unattended in a yard. I am always present to observe and keep them safe. I provide personalized care to each animal. I'm tuned in to their unique personalities & needs. I offer treats and toys per your approval. I'm holistic minded- paying close attention to their health & choose natural high quality products. I also cook them healthy meals that they love (if allowed). I can provide freeze dried raw treats which contain probiotics as an ingredient to keep them regular. I can't remember a time when I didn't have a dog in my life! Growing up with dogs, I learned what it takes to properly care for them at a young age. I've always been very responsible with my pets. My beautiful girl, Cuddles crossed the rainbow bridge at age 15 (2016). I had her since she was just a few weeks old & she had always been extremely well taken care of. People appreciated her youthful & cheerful spirit, often mistaking her for a puppy, even as a senior. I cooked healthy stews for her & gave her spring water. I walked her often & hardly ever left home without her! I only accepted positions that allowed her to accompany me. She was always happy & got along beautifully with all animals & humans. She slept in my bed on soft linens & was hand fed at times. I'm the queen of spoiling! That's partly why I so enjoy this work...it's been very healing for me as far as missing her! Hugs & kisses are given abundantly as well as loving words of reassurance, encouragement, and pet massages! Your pet/s will receive the same level of care & compassion I gave to my own. I'll honor all of your wishes & care instructions joyfully at all times. I have a site & PDF full of excellent reference letters/ detailed information that I'm happy to share with you about my experience per your request. I promise to give your pet/s lots of love, attention, keep them safe, well fed, hydrated & walked as often as needed. I'm very active, attentive, intuitive, & truly care from the heart about every animal dependent upon me. It is very rewarding work & I am fortunate to be blessed with each new assignment. I consider every connection a divine one. HOUSESITTING CLIENTS: I provide my own bedding/towels (groceries) & wash all linens/dishes I've used plus leave your home cleaner than when I arrived! I will share updates/photos/videos daily by text or email per your preference. I have managed estates, overseeing household staff of large homes and worked for many years as a trusted nanny for children from newborns to teenage! (excellent track record). I'm highly respectful of privacy and personal belongings. I'm happy to share my reviews on several other sites and will consider long term assignments/offers. Thank you for your interest.

Our pup Ava returned happy and tired after her stay with Angela! She sent tons of adorable photos of Ava having a blast with the other pups. I would without hesitation recommend a stay with Angela for your pup.

My dogs love staying with Angie and her pack of small dogs. It’s a great way for my young girls to socialize. She keeps me updated and sends pictures and videos.

My girls seemed to love the stay and being able to play with other dogs. Angela was a great communicator, sent pictures, and is a dog whisperer!

Angie is the best! She’s the only person I felt comfortable with leaving my dog with. She eased all of my concerns by taking time to answer all of my questions and being responsive! She’s very communicative and sends many updates! My pup is always smiling so much when with Angie. He even misses her once he comes home. When I moved, I wanted to take Angie with me haha. Such a gem! She will treat your pet like they’re her own. She loves on them so much and they feel it. 10/10 recommend.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety always comes first! I learned this when caring for newborn babies plus children of all ages as a professional nanny for over 20 years & I apply the same principles to the animals!

Information Angela S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know what their regular schedule is like & what their food favorites are. Any known allergies? What makes your pet/s most happy? (A favorite toy or snack) What are their preferences/ special needs? How does your pet/s do with other pets & at park outings? I've been doing nanny and assistant work (estate management) for decades in between life events and everything else which has involved plenty of pet care! I'm happy to share stories & photos of some of the pets I've looked after. I am an artist (oils & crystals) & writer (rhyming poet) which makes pet sitting ideal for me. I am highly responsible & do my absolute best to keep your animal/s happy, safe, & comfortable while under my care. I'm also designing a pet apparel line that keeps me busy too.

A typical day

My style is full of love, always making safety a priority & having plenty of fun in the process! I will generally follow the routine the dog is used to with variations based on preferences of the family. I take the dogs outside every 3-5 hours maximum, every 0-2 hours for puppies & more if indicated! I give the dogs two longer walks per day (am and pm) with several potty breaks in between. My usual potty routine with them begins at 5 or 6am, then out again at 10 or 11am, 3 or 4pm, 8 or 9pm, 11pm or 12am (midnight), etc.. Plenty of indoor & outdoor play time, belly rub downs and back massages all are a part of the deal. I talk to them in a pleasant tone explaining things as we go & sing their name to them very harmoniously on a daily basis. Healing music is therapeutic and calming. I feel dogs are very spiritual & sound sensitive. They like my energy.
