About: I grew up caring for a variety of pets, including guinea pigs, rats, turtles, parrots, dogs. This gave me a strong understanding of different animal personalities and needs.

I am available for dog walking in the mornings and evenings, and I have full availability three days a week. Your pet's safety is my top priority. I carefully follow all instructions and routines to keep things consistent. I stay alert during walks and visits, monitor behavior closely, and make sure your dog is always in a safe environment.
“Avery took amazing care of my dog & 2 cats while I went away. She sent personalized updates multiple times a day and cute photos as well! There was a big storm while I was away and she even went out of her way to tidy up my outdoor furniture and made sure everything was secured. Will absolutely book again and highly recommend!”

“Shelby was great! She looked after our 3 cats and was very diligent about giving updates, taking extra photos, and making sure they were well cared for. Would definitely book with her again!”

“Limari has been great with my new little pup! She understands his routine, takes good care of him, and safely puts him back in his crate after each visit. So glad to have Limari help out when I can't be there!”

“Lori was great! We were traveling during the Holidays and needed a last minute sitter and Lori very graciously obliged. She was timely and followed all of the care details perfectly. She even let us use one of her cat’s toys that she no longer needed, so sweet! Lori is great, highly recommend!”


About: Hello, I'm Angelo! I've worked with pets since I was a child, and would love to help you free up valuable time while helping your pet get the care they deserve. I grew up with many animals and was responsible for their care, including regularly walking 4 dogs at once. As I became a teenager, I started working within my neighborhood walking the neighbors' dogs, and professionally worked as a dog walker entering college. Assisting people's animals helped put me through undergrad, and I'm excited to resume to help put me through graduate school. I've worked across the spectrum, from small dogs with big tempers to very large dogs full of energy, as well as puppies and elder dogs. I'm also very familiar with caring for cats/kittens, and even less traditional pets such as snakes, bearded dragons, leopard geckos, fish, shrimp, and even jumping spiders! As a bonus, I'm well versed in caring for house plants of different varieties. I hope this helps you feel at ease entrusting me with your pet's care. Thank you for your time and I look forward to working together. I am completely available this summer for daily dog-walking and sitting needs! This includes weekdays and weekends, from 8 am to 9 pm. If you're interested in a regular schedule, I'm happy to talk! I'm comfortable with new situations and environments, and can easily crate your dog if needed. I'm also familiar with many different leash/harness set ups. I likewise do strength training, so in the event a dog needs to be picked up, I have been trained in animal first aid carrying techniques and can do so even with larger dogs.

“Paul was the answer to our prayers! We were new to Rover and not sure what to expect. Paul was fantastic! Professional, prompt, and communicative with lots of pics of our very happy doggie on his walks and drop-ins. This meant we could actually relax during our time out of town, knowing that our baby was in very good hands with Paul. Five stars here and a repeat customer for sure!”

“Joy did an outstanding job caring for our furry friends while we were away. We couldn't have asked for a better person to ensure that our cats were fed, hydrated, and comfortable. She went above and beyond in taking care of our cats' needs and addressing other important matters. Additionally, she diligently checked our mail and promptly alerted us when unexpected events occurred, such as the fire alarm. Joy consistently demonstrated her attentiveness and responsiveness. Every aspect of her care for our cats and our house exhibited her dedication and professionalism. We are grateful for her reliability, thoroughness, and the peace of mind she provided us. She genuinely cared for our cats and our home, and we enthusiastically recommend her to anyone in search of a responsible and compassionate pet sitter. We are eagerly looking forward to booking her services again soon!”

“Alejandro took such good care of our little Mango! He not only made sure to feed him and clean his litter box as requested; he also spent plenty of time playing with Mango and keeping him company while we were away. We’ll definitely be in touch the next time Mango needs a catsitter!”

Charmaine took great care of our cat while we were on vacation! It was our first time leaving since we’d adopted her, so I was a little nervous, but Charmaine made sure our cat was well taken care of and took a ton of pictures during each visit! She even brought some new toys for our cat, and was content to simple snuggle with our cat on the couch if she wasn’t in the mood to play. Thank you, Charmaine!

Camille was an amazing cat sitter! As a cat owner herself, she truly understands how much cat parents care about their pets and the little details that matter. She was very responsive, reliable, and always on time. I felt completely at ease knowing my cats were in such caring and capable hands. She kept me updated, followed all instructions carefully, and treated my cats with genuine love and attention. I highly recommend Camille to anyone looking for a trustworthy and professional pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!

She was so good with Jessica. Usually she's super shy with new people and she immediately im ate treats from Anne. Her energy was great. Clearly she has a connection with the animals. It was less hard going on a trip knowing my cat was in good hands. She also sent the cutest photos.

Hannah was a wonderful sitter for both of our kitties while we were out of town for two weeks! She ensured we were up to speed on our cats and was super communicative all throughout the booking. Appreciated her flexibility on some last minute booking changes and would definitely be looking to rebook her in the near future 🙂

Mari is such a pleasant person to be around. She understood exactly what it takes to care for an older cat with health conditions like our Ziggy. I really appreciated the level of enthusiasm, attentiveness, and experience she brought, even with a long list of medications and feeding instructions. It’s clear that she genuinely cares deeply about both the animals and the people who love them.
