Pet care experience

Expert care & unlimited belly rubs

Dogs are experts at making us feel like the most important human in the world, and they deserve nothing less in return. I've spent years mastering the art of being the perfect stand-in human, combining the excitement of a best friend with the responsibility of a trusted guardian. Whether your pup is an enthusiastic social butterfly or needs a gentle, patient approach, I adapt my care style to match their personality. What makes me different? I understand that each dog's 'perfect day' looks unique — some need long, adventurous walks to thrive, while others prefer short strolls and extra cuddle time. I read dog body language fluently, respect their individual comfort zones, and have a knack for making even the most anxious pups feel at ease. From maintaining their exact walking schedules to administering medications, I handle every aspect of care with dedication and attention to detail. Because I take my role as your dog's temporary human seriously, I provide detailed updates that capture their adventures, mood, and those tail-wagging moments that make you feel like you're right there with us. Your trust and your dog's happiness are my highest priorities. While I can't promise to be as amazing as their favorite human (you've set a high bar!), I can guarantee professional, loving care that will have them excited for our next visit together.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I provide personalized care for your pets in the comfort of their own home through four main services: - Drop-in visits: Perfect for morning, midday or evening check-ins, feeding times, or quick play sessions. During these visits, I ensure your pet has fresh water, meals as scheduled, clean litter boxes or potty breaks, and dedicated playtime or cuddles based on their preferences. - Dog walking: I offer engaging walks tailored to your dog's energy level, age, and routine. Each walk includes proper leash handling, attention to your pup's comfort level, and adherence to your specified route or distance preferences. - House and pet sitting: When you travel, I provide comprehensive overnight care, maintaining your pet's normal routines while ensuring your home is looked after. This includes regular feeding, exercise, medication administration if needed, mail collection, plant care, and detailed updates with photos. - Constant care: For pets requiring a higher level of attention, I provide comprehensive around-the-clock care, staying in your home 24/7 except for brief essential errands. This premium service is ideal for senior pets, animals with medical needs, or those who thrive on constant companionship. Your pet will have a dedicated caregiver present throughout the day and night, maintaining their exact schedule and providing detailed care logs and regular updates. My focus is on providing consistent, loving care while respecting your pet's established routines and your specific care instructions.

House Sitting • Aug 06, 2026

Angelica was a dream sitter. She texted every day with updates, some days multiple times, just to set our minds and hearts at ease. We have two dogs with disparate temperaments and needs and she really nailed it with both of them -- keeping our high-energy 1-year-old blue heeler-mix on the move while letting our skittish pug-mix warm up slooowly. In the past I've had sitters who never made any connection or progress with our pug-mix during a 10 day stay away and I was really grateful to Angelica for being patient while still building a bond (not just giving up/being passive). We came home to our house just as we left it and she even picked up some. We are really grateful for her and would absolutely book her again.

Angelica took great care of my kitty and was communicative throughout! She made sure my sweet girl had her asthma medicine and cuddles. Would definitely recommend!!

Angelica is a true dog lover. She is so attentive and kind to our dogs while we're away, and it really shows in her great communications. Proactive, responsive, and highly capable. I don't know what we'd do without her! Highly recommend.

Angelica is awesome and she saved the day! I had a last-minute work trip and wasn't going to be home until late. Angelica popped over to feed and walk my puppies and give them some attention so that they were happy and all set when I got back from my trip.
