House Sitting

I stay in your home to care for your pets and handle basic household tasks, maintaining a sense of routine and comfort while you're away. Please note that Silvluka Pet Sitting does not provide 24/7 in-home care. I continue care of my own pets and may accept additional drop-in visits, while ensuring your pets receive the care and attention they need. 

Drop-in Visits

I stop by your home for 30 or 60 minutes to care for your pet. During these visits, I'll provide potty breaks, meal times, engaging play and plenty of cuddles. Additional tasks such as administering medication or attending to medical needs can be completed as well.

Dog Walking

I provide a 30 minute walk around your neighborhood. If any other tasks are required, I recommend booking a drop-in visit instead. Additional fees may occur for multiple dogs, age and holiday/peak pricing.

I truly don't have enough wonderful things to say about Angela!  She has been watching my cats and house sitting for me since 2020.  At any given time, I've had 3 or 4 cats that are a little high maintenance - mixing powdered food with water, different foods for different cats, getting medicine, different types of litter, and the occasional ringworm!  Angela takes it all in stride and is always willing to help out.  When we had a death in the family, I panic texted her and she made room in her schedule so it was one thing we didn't have to worry about.  When my husband accidentally closed the door to the room with the litter boxes and I was out of state, I texted her and she ran over to open it. The cats (and I) were grateful.  She leaves our home in great condition, brings in the mail and packages, waters our plants, and loves on our fur babies like they were her own.  When friends ask for recommendations on pet sitters, my go to is Angela -- and she should be your go to, too.

I can’t say enough good things about Angela and her pet-sitting service. She is reliable, responsive, and always going above and beyond with the care of our fur babies. In the 5 years I have been working with Angela, I have had nothing but good experiences and have been really impressed with her professionalism and genuine care. Having an older cat with some chronic health issues, I can rest assured during any trip out of town that he is in very capable and loving hands. Strongly recommend her to anyone in need of top-notch pet care!

- Nicole

Angela is always so thorough, and she takes the best care of our senior, scaredy cat. I appreciate that she always sends photos and updates, which helps me worry less when we’re away. She warmed up to Angela right away (which never happens) and is always happy and healthy when we return. I cannot recommend Angela enough for your pet sitting needs!

- Megan

My dogs and cats are my family and I always had family care for them when we traveled. When that option was not available, I decided I needed to find the perfect home and dog/cat sitter and then Angela came into my life. I cannot state more emphatically how much I treasure and adore Angela. I feel no trepidation whatsoever when I leave my family and home in her care. She is truly a trusted caregiver and I am so blessed to have her in our home and hearts. 

- Kristi

Angela goes above and beyond during drop-ins for my cats. She is incredibly observant of my cats needs and I know my cats will always be taken care of when she is watching them. I chose her because of her experience as a veterinary field and my cat needed someone experienced with insulin shots. I trust her completely and continue to rely on her as I have added more cats to the family. I would recommend her to everyone! 

- Kaitlin

Amazing job with my dog took her on a couple really good walks! She really saved my butt last minute when I found out I would be working all weekend!

- Katie

Angela did a fantastic job taking care of our 4 cats during a week-long vacation. One is on medication, and she managed his quirks and special needs admirably. Great communication for every visit, and she really showed her dedication to keeping everyone happy and healthy. She has our highest recommendations, and we look forward to having her care for our guys again.

- Ann

Angela does drop-ins, walks, and house sitting for our dog and cat. We have a very shy and anxious dog and Angela is incredibly sweet and patient with her. We are so grateful to have found someone so kind and trusting to care for our animals while we are away. It brings such peace of mind! Angela is the best!

- Kenzie

I must say wow very impressed and pleased with Angela. Angela is very attentive, and punctual. She updates you on when she arrives and leaves and sends reports on all your pups including photos! It’s not easy finding someone to watch 3 large dogs but she did it with ease and I found my home and dogs just as I left. I am so thankful to have found Angela and highly recommend her to care for your pets.

- Lisa

We were so lucky to find Angela to take care of our cats while we lived in Rochester. She was always available when we needed her, whether that was a holiday or a long trip home. She often spent extra time with our cats and even gave me a free visit when we had to travel home unexpectedly for a family emergency. She went above and beyond to make sure our cats were loved, fed, and taken care of, and truly loved them like they were her own - she even gave our cats cute nicknames! :) Knowing they were were in excellent hands while we were away was the greatest gift we could've asked for and I would recommend Angela to anyone looking for high quality, intentional pet care.

 Angela has been great with the doggos, and a very clean house guest. We have enjoyed working with her, as she is very prompt with any questions/concerns. We plan to use her again in the future and would recommend her.

- Sarah

Angela is great with our pets. She is very aware when things are different and doesn’t hesitate to reach out if she has any questions! We couldn’t be more happy with Angela and the care she provided for our two cats. We got updates with every visit, pictures and even care questions to make sure everything was as it should be. She really cares for the animals she is taking care of and we were able to truly enjoy our time away as we knew the cats were in very good hands.

- Vickie

She always takes great care of our 2 kitties, is prompt and a great communicator!

-  Victoria

Angela has been caring for our kitties for the past 6 months. Whenever we go out of town we are reassured that they will be in the best care. She is extremely communicative, cares deeply about the pets she cares for, and is a pleasure to talk to. I would recommend her in a heartbeat!

- Ibi

Amazing! She took such great care of my dog while we were gone. Went above and beyond to make sure the house was clean and cared for. Recommend her very highly!

 Angela did a wonderful job with the pets. All the pictures were nice and everyone seemed happy to have her around and I'm sure they enjoyed the walks. The meeting process was easy and she took care of all the feeding instructions and other needs very well.

- Matt

Angela was absolutely amazing! She was great at communicating, replied promptly to messages, and gave excellent thorough reports with amazing pictures. Angela followed instructions perfectly and was wonderful. We can go to work with ease knowing that Izzy is in excellent hands. We will continue to work with Angela when we need someone to take care of Izzy!

- Gaby

- Emmett

Angela is wonderful! She took great care of our pup, and kept us informed with updates. She exceeded our expectations and is clearly a lover of animals. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!

- Kara

Angela is absolutely fantastic. We were getting married, so all the people who would normally watch our very energetic Shepherd and very reactive Cocker Spaniel/Beagle/Lab mix were busy. She came over multiple times the few months leading up so we could feel good that the dogs would feel comfortable around her, and was overall incredible.

- Eliah

I am so happy and fortunate to have found Angela. I had to take a business trip and left my kitty for the first time. Angela made me very comfortable and I knew right away that he was in good hands. I highly recommend Angela and I will definitely be calling her in the future.

- Chris

Angela is fantastic and handles difficulties and hiccups with grace. I have an anxious dog and she handled her well.

- Holli

It was my first time with Angela. It couldn’t have gone better! She took great care of my kitty, sent updates and pictures every night ! She made it to my place even with the horrible weather which was really appreciated! I would definitely recommend her as a sitter and will book her again.

- Angelicia

Angela took fantastic care of our dog and cats while housesitting, we will definitely continue to book for both drop in visits and house sitting visits whenever we need them!
