About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was 10. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets, including senior dogs and puppies. I provide personalized attention to every dog, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I ensure dogs get plenty of exercise, attention, and care through scheduled walks, feeding, and playtime. I’m flexible with morning, afternoon, and evening visits to accommodate each pet’s needs. I prioritize safety by following pet parents’ instructions, maintaining a secure environment, and ensuring dogs are always supervised. Whether in my home or theirs, I provide a clean, stress-free, and loving space where pets feel comfortable and cared for.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life and truly love being around animals. From a young age, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to care for their pets while they’re away. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels, including puppies and senior dogs. I work from home, which allows me to be very flexible and present throughout the day. Pets in my care are rarely left alone and get plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and potty breaks. I’m able to accommodate regular routines, feedings, and any special needs, and I’m available for daytime care, drop-ins, and overnight stays depending on your pet’s needs. I provide a calm, safe, and structured environment for every pet in my care. I have two friendly, well-socialized dogs and always introduce new pets slowly and thoughtfully to ensure everyone is comfortable. I closely supervise interactions, follow each pet’s routine, and can crate your dog if needed. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and clear communication, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos for peace of mind.

About: I bring warmth, patience, and years of hands-on experience with dogs of all types. Having grown up with a dog and cared for many since moving to the U.S., I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I take that responsibility seriously and ensure each dog feels at ease, loved, and cared for—whether it’s their first stay or they’re a regular guest. From playful pups to older, more relaxed dogs, I adapt to their needs and make sure they feel at home. I also stay in close contact with owners, sending updates and photos so you feel connected and confident while you’re away. I decided to become a full-time dog sitter. So I have plenty of time to take care of your animal's needs. If he needs exercise, snuggles, or extra attention I'm here for them🤗. I have a dog-friendly house when he/she is alone they can sleep on the couch or in his bed. If your fur baby needs to be walked I can go and take him out long walks or short. Nearby in my community we have a dog park as well. Whatever you need in a dog sitter I'm here for your needs.

About: I have had dogs for the last 30 years. I am responsible, trustworthy and would love to get to know your pet! I enjoy exercising, so I am happy to get your pooch moving. I can tailor exercise to your dog’s level of fitness. I have two dogs of my own, so I am used to handling and caring for dogs. One of mine is 3 and the other is 15, so I understand different age groups may require different levels of attention . I tend to spoil them so be prepared for that. Dogs need frequent daily activity to maintain a healthy, happy and stress free lifestyle. I am happy to provide these services for your beloved pooch and look forward to hearing from you soon. I work part time and for myself so my schedule is very flexible. I will try to accommodate your needs. Call me… I’m ready to get your pooch out walking. I am happy to come to your home to walk your fur baby. My three year old mini golden doodle is happy to come along on walks if you pooch likes to play with others.

Angela is terrific and very flexible. I had to adjust my scheduled visits on short notice due to a change in my travel plans. Angela was extremely accommodating and worked with me to get the coverage I needed. She is a warm and caring woman and I have complete confidence that she will care for my pets as if they were her own. Thank you.

Sofie did an excellent job taking care of our 2 dogs. Theo our one year-old Chihuahua and Sophie our 12-year-old Pomeranian. We were able to enjoy our vacation without any worries that she was giving them love and attention. She communicated daily and kept us up-to-date on her visits. We would highly recommend sofie and plan on asking her to watch our dogs again in June.
