Highlights
Pet care experience
True animal-lover!❤️Kennel+Vet work
I love caring for all kinds of animals! In addition to my years of pet care, I've worked at 3 different kennels in recent years which included dog walking, doggy daycare, care for German Shepherd rescues & police K9's, cat care, and some exotic care. I have experience with many different personalities, and I have experience administering medication, disinfecting messes, feeding various kinds of diets, and walking dogs from slow/old to strong/energetic. In 2024 I completed a veterinary assistant program. I am now working as a hospital concierge at a veterinary emergency and specialty center where I will have the opportunity to receive training to become a veterinary assistant. It is my absolute pleasure to give your pet(s) the best attention to ensure they’re as happy as possible while you’re away! My own pet family has consisted of... ●Buddy (wire fox terrier-poodle mix) ●Simba (orange tabby) ●Nala (tortie) ●Tex & Walker (orange tabby sisters) ●Hallie (large mutt) ●Fang (my pet corn snake!) Sadly our special old boys Buddy & Simba have passed but to me they will always be a part of the family💕

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
It is of course a huge venture of trust to let a stranger in your home and leave loved ones in their care. I fully recognize the weight of this decision, and this is a responsibility that I do not take lightly. I will be respectful of your home and you will find it the way you left it. I always keep in communication with my clients and they know that I am a very reliable sitter. If my profile says that I only send photo updates a certain percentage of the time, it is because I often send photo/video dumps efficiently over the phone. I always send pictures after every visit and throughout the course of all stays. Rates: My rates that I have carefully selected are raised in Rover, most significantly for sittings. This is to accommodate for the commission Rover takes from all services. Please note that Rover keeps at least a 20% cut for every service. So when it comes to sittings, I make significantly less despite the expensive rate owners are having to pay. For example: I decided to set a standard rate for myself of $65/night, and for me to make around that much for sittings, owners need to pay $80. Thank you for your understanding & if you have any questions please don't hesitate to message me.
Ratings and reviews
Thank you!!!!
We are always so comfortable when leaving our pet with Angela. Our dog is so happy to see her which is a very good sign. Highly recommend Angela
Angela is great with Tucker!
Angela is so attentive, and Tucker really responds to her. No worries when she’s taking care of the little guy.
Angela was an excellent sitter for our dog, Kima. She was patient with Kima, who has anxiety, and was able to develop a friendship with her. Angela sent photos each day and communicated how Kima was doing. I highly recommend Angela.
Angela has been a great dog-walker for our pup. We absolutely would recommend her. Our pup looks forward to her every visit!

Schedule
[UPDATE] My new schedule is much more limited and consistent. I now work 10h shifts 4 days a week: 10am-8pm Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. While I'm sad that I won't be available for as many opportunities now (especially sittings), I'm still happy to continue my pet care whenever I can fit it in. On my work days, I could fit in a half-hour service on my way home, depending on the location. If you are interested in receiving walks or visits that include these evenings, please reach out as soon as possible since I will only be able to accommodate one booking at a time. I may occasionally make exceptions and use PTO to accommodate requests, especially for shorter sittings with my regular clients. Please note that although I have a regular schedule, things may come up where I'm needed to cover other shifts or potentially help out for emergencies (but last-minute assistance is optional and I would not abandon necessary care I'm already committed to). Otherwise, my available days are Sundays, Mondays, and Thursdays. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me with any questions and to see if we may work something out!🙂

- In addition to the individual personality and preferences of your pet, it'd be great to know where everything I might use is located in the house (such as their leash, poop bags, toys, treats, food, dishes, litter boxes, cleaning supplies, any comfort items like a calming spray, etc.). Especially if I'm doing overnight sittings, it'd be helpful to get a feel for their routines like what times they eat, a treat time, if they do something right before bed such as a potty break, the setting in which they sleep like if all the lights are off, etc. Some pets might have a harder time with you away and so the more consistent we can make their day the better! If your pet has any special needs or health issues, I definitely want to know all about them and how to best care for him/her. As for walks, if your dog (or cat) has a potentially confusing harness, it'd be nice to get clarification on how it's properly worn. It would also be important to be made aware if your dog has any potential triggers. For example, if a squirrel were to run in front of us, is your dog the type to suddenly bolt after it? If your dog happens to be massive like a Great Dane, I want to make sure it's not a strong puller. For unsure cases, it'd be a good idea to do a meet-and-greet so I can get a feel for its strength and size and see if I'll be able to handle it for walks.
