Loving, Reliable Care for Your Pets
Like many people, my love for animals goes above and beyond. Since the day I was born, I have been around animals. I got my first dog when I was 5 years old. Brady was a mutt who was rescued from Puerto Rico. Due to the trauma he experienced there, he could be quite a handful and required constant guidance and care. A few years later, we got another dog, Charlie, who became best friends with our first. A few years after that, we adopted our third dog, a little Maltese named Molly. They all got along very well and soon became the Three Musketeers. In addition to caring for my three dogs, I would frequently dog-sit for friends and family when needed. This included anything from a drop-by to see how the animals are doing to an overnight stay (and, obviously, those walks!). In addition to dogs and cats, I have experience caring for other animals as well! I have house-sat for people who have reptiles, birds, and bunnies. Seriously, all animals are welcome here! (:
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Our boys love Angelica! She took such good care of them while we were away for 10 days and they’re not the easiest boys to care for! So glad we met Angelica and are looking forward to having her dogsit for us again!
Angelica was amazing with Oliver! It was our first time using her and she was great with him. She sent pics the weekend so I always knew he was doing well, and when I came home my apartment was spotless. She was super sweet and you could tell she genuinely enjoyed spending time with my boy. Will 100% be booking her again!
Angelica is so sweet with our little gentlemen! They don’t always warm up to people, but they warmed up to her very quickly!
Angelica was fantastic! We got daily updates with pictures and our dogs could not have looked any happier. I knew our dogs were in good hands and felt completely comfortable leaving our babies with Angelica. She left our home clean and in perfect order. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her.
Angelica was great! She was available with only a few days notice when the length of our trip changed. She communicated with us throughout her stay with Chips, and we'll definitely be using her again!
Angelica is amazing with our Balli! She takes such good care of her and communicates/responds timely with updates. You can tell she genuinely loves animals.

I am available when you need me! I am currently unemployed, but I hope to get a certification to become a dog trainer in the near future. Animals are amazing, and learning about different breeds/pets is always a win!
Where your pet will stay
Safety, trust & environment
I will treat your animals exactly how I treat mine, with the utmost care and respect. Animals love to feel safe, secure, and heard, so I believe that learning about their personality and reactions is necessary for a healthy relationship. The more I know your animal, the better our friendship will be! Another thing animals like is routine. While your animal is in my care, I will respect your routine and ensure they get what they need when they need it. What worked with my pets may not work for yours, and respecting that is always important! With any animal, patience is necessary. Especially when they are puppies, high-energy, or in training. Each animal requires different approaches to certain situations, especially when there is a background of abuse or neglect. As mentioned before, paying close attention to personality, reactions, and body language can be tremendously helpful in understanding what makes them comfortable or uneasy.
A typical day
Activities may vary depending on the animal's breed and/or personality, but most animals love to be active. Activities such as walks, tug-of-war, backyard play, fetch, and water play are great! I love being active, so hiking is most definitely an option as long as you and your pup are comfortable with it! Some animals love dirt, so if a bath is ever needed, I'm here to help with that as well. Mental enrichment is also important, so if you have any pet puzzle games, like having them hunt for treats, or even use communication buttons, I am here to help! I also can't forget about those pictures. Who doesn't love getting pictures of pets? Especially your own! Throughout my time with your pet, I will be MORE than happy to update you throughout the day/our walks.
