Availability

As a full-time college student studying pre-veterinary sciences and working part-time at a veterinary clinic, my schedule can vary throughout the week. I always update my availability to ensure your pet receives the best care possible. Typically, my availability is more flexible from Friday to Sunday, but my Monday to Thursday schedule depends on my classes and clinic hours. I’m also available for overnight pet sitting on weekends or with advance notice. If you have specific times or requests in mind, feel free to ask—I’m happy to work with you and adjust as needed!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard, providing a secure and safe environment for your pups to play and explore. Additionally, I live in a neighborhood surrounded by parks, so there are plenty of places for walks, playtime, and outdoor adventures. If your pet prefers or needs to be crated, I can accommodate that as well, ensuring they feel secure and comfortable. Whether it’s keeping them safe in the yard, taking them on exciting strolls through nearby parks, or crating when necessary, you can trust that your pets are in good hands with plenty of space to run, play, and relax.

Information Angelina R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know ahead of time if your dog has special needs, requires specific accommodations, or has any medical conditions that need attention. Additionally, if your dog is reactive to other animals or has any behavioral concerns, it’s important for me to be aware so I can make sure they are comfortable and safe. Communication is key to ensuring a positive experience for both your pet and me, so feel free to share any details that will help me provide the best care possible.

A typical day

A typical day starts with a morning walk to get your pet moving, followed by playtime, cuddles, and meals. If your pet loves specific activities—like fetch, tug-of-war, or anything else—I’ll make sure to incorporate that into our day as much as possible. I’ll keep them entertained and safe, with potty breaks and rest throughout the day. If your pet needs medication or special care, I’ll handle that as well. In the evening, we’ll go for another walk or play session before settling in for the night, whether that means crating or relaxing in their favorite spot.

Pet care experience

Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve had my senior dog for 13 years, and caring for her as she’s aged has taught me so much about love, patience, and what it means to truly understand a pet’s needs. I’ve worked at a doggy daycare, where I got to know so many different breeds and personalities, and now I work as a veterinary assistant, which has deepened my knowledge and confidence in animal care, even in tricky situations. I’ve also been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family, and I always care for their pets like I would my own. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or giving meds, I’m here to make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

Angelina took care of my 2 senior dogs for 4 days over the holidays and did great with them. She was responsive and sent me updates everyday. Truly appreciate the extra care she took with my dogs.
