Loving Care Like Family
Hi! I'm Lynn, and caring for dogs has been one of the greatest joys of my life for more than 30 years. I've had the privilege of raising and caring for four incredible dogs, each of whom I lovingly called my "kids." They weren't just pets—they were cherished members of our family. Through every stage of life, from playful puppies to their senior years, I was there to provide them with the love, patience, and care they deserved. One of my beloved dogs, Gigi, developed diabetes later in life, which required daily insulin injections and eventually led to blindness. Caring for her taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and providing extra comfort to dogs with medical needs. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, especially when they require medication or specialized care, and I take that responsibility very seriously. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing in the yard, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I carefully follow every instruction you provide, including feeding schedules, medication administration, dietary needs, exercise routines, and any special preferences that help your pet feel at home. My home features a secure, fenced-in yard with both grassy and paved areas, giving dogs plenty of safe space to explore, play, and enjoy the outdoors. I also know how important peace of mind is for pet parents. You'll receive regular photo and video updates, along with messages letting you know how your furry family member is doing, so you can relax knowing they're in caring hands. My goal is simple: to love and care for your dog the same way I cared for my own—with patience, kindness, compassion, and lots of hugs, kisses, belly rubs, and affection. When your pet is with me, they'll be treated like family.

Ratings and reviews
Angelina is an amazing human being who loves your pets like it’s her own! I was introduced to Angelina during a very unexpected time. I was going on vacation and a family member was going to watch my yorkie, Milo! I could never dream about having anyone but family watch Milo after almost losing him shortly after adopting him! A month prior to me leaving on vacation my family member told me that they were not going to be able to watch Milo after all! I was distraught and anxious! I had heard so many horrible things about boarding places in my area. I was contemplating cancelling my vacation! Then Angelina was introduced to me and Milo! Immediately, Milo ran to her and felt comfortable and loved. Something that didn’t happen before. This helped reduce my anxiety! While I was on vacation, Angelina (or Mama Lynn as we now refer to her) would text me updates and pictures of her and Milo just to ensure that I would feel better and as she said to enjoy my vacation. I could see that Milo was adjusting well and he was feeling like he was at home! Angelina treats our pets as if they are hers and her love for animals shines through. I will only let her watch Milo from now on and Milo loves his Mama Lynn!
I can’t say enough wonderful things about our dog sitter! From the very first meeting, it was clear how caring, responsible, and genuinely passionate she is about animals. Our dog absolutely adores her, which gives us such peace of mind whenever we’re away. She goes above and beyond—providing regular updates, photos, and little details that show how much attention and love our pup is getting. It’s not just pet sitting; it’s truly personalized care. Our dog comes back happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved every time. Knowing that our furry family member is in such capable and compassionate hands is priceless. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and absolutely fabulous dog sitter!

Schedule
During the week, I work Monday through Thursday outside of the home and typically return by 5:30 PM. If you're comfortable with your dog being home during those hours, I'll make sure they're well cared for before I leave and as soon as I return, with plenty of love, attention, exercise, and playtime throughout the evening. On Fridays, I work from home, allowing me to provide more frequent companionship and care throughout the day. I'm also fully available on weekends and enjoy spending quality time with the dogs in my care. I believe open communication is important, so I'm always happy to discuss your pet's routine and determine whether my schedule is the right fit for their individual needs. My goal is to ensure both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and cared for.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my highest priorities. I understand that every dog has their own routine, personality, and needs, and I'm committed to following the care instructions you provide so they feel as comfortable as possible while they're with me. My home offers a secure, fenced-in yard with both grassy and paved areas where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. Inside, they'll have a calm, clean, and welcoming environment where they'll be treated like part of the family. I'm happy to accommodate your preferences when it comes to your pet's routine. If your dog is crate-trained or you're more comfortable having them in a crate or exercise pen during certain times, I'm more than happy to follow that routine. Likewise, if your pet is used to having free roam of the home, I'm happy to discuss that as well. My goal is to maintain the routine they're familiar with to help reduce stress and make them feel at home. I'll also keep you connected with regular photo and video updates so you can see how your pet is doing and enjoy peace of mind while you're away. I know how much our pets mean to us because I've always considered mine to be family, and I'll care for yours with the same love, patience, and respect I'd want for my own.
A typical day
Every dog is unique, so a typical day will always be tailored to your pet's age, personality, energy level, and routine. My goal is to make their stay feel as familiar and comfortable as possible by following the schedule and preferences you provide. The day typically begins with a potty break, breakfast (if part of their routine), and some time for exercise, play, or a leisurely walk. Throughout the day, your dog will receive plenty of love, attention, and companionship. For dogs who enjoy playing, I have toys available for indoor play, and outside they'll have access to my secure, fenced-in yard with both grassy and paved areas where they can safely run, explore, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. For senior dogs or those with a calmer temperament, I'm just as happy to provide a slower-paced day with plenty of cuddles, quiet companionship, and opportunities to rest. If your dog requires medication, has dietary restrictions, or follows a specific schedule, I'll carefully follow your instructions to ensure their routine stays consistent. Throughout your dog's stay, I'll send regular photo and video updates so you can see how much fun they're having and enjoy peace of mind knowing they're being cared for like one of my own.
