I currently work from home so I am home all day, every day. I take care of my 3 animals (1 dog, 2 cats) as part of my daily routine. I feed them twice a day and go out for walks in the evening. Once my contract ends July 1st, I will be 100% dedicated to animal care and dog training.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a friendly 40 lbs. dog that loves to play and will keep your dog company throughout the day. I have extra dog beds if you don't have one or forget yours. I have a balcony with a doggy lawn and doggy door that allows them to use the bathroom on their own at anytime. If they are scared of the balcony, I can easily walk them outside. I am within a 15 minute walk of multiple parks / dog parks where they can exercise. I usually go out for walks after work. Cats are welcome as well. No need to worry, my dog is very friendly since she grew up with 2 cats her entire life (my cats are actually in charge here lol). There is plenty of space and a cat tree for your cat to have their own safe space if needed. My cats are very friendly as well but they usually stay to themselves. If sitting from your home, I will follow any rules and routine you want. If you need help or suggestions, I can provide that based on my routine with my animals.

Information Anthony A. would like to know about your pet

Please share any of the following that applies to your pet: If it’s already on your profile then no need to share again. - Most importantly, I need to know that they are 100% house/potty trained. I DO NOT accept animals that are not potty trained unless you would like to pay an additional fee. We can discuss this if needed. - Are they vaccinated? All shots must be up to date. I can only accept vaccinated animals. I do not accept females in heat. - Any dietary restrictions or allergies? - Any medications needed? - Any unique personality traits or behaviors around other animals, children, or in certain situations? (chews shoes, barks at front door, not a fan of loud noises, gets into trash, etc.) - Are they comfortable playing at the dog park?

A typical day

I love to go to the park to play fetch and let the dogs run around. I will go to the dog park to let them meet other dogs if you're comfortable with that. I usually go to Lafayette Park, Francisco Park, Alamo Park or Jefferson Park. For longer trips, I like to hike at Lands End and Fort Funston or spend the day at Ocean or Baker Beach. I also take my dog to the farmers market sometimes. I never feed her bad human food but I will give her dog friendly foods like, Mishka Luxury Dog treats or a pup cup from Salt n Straw. I will only do this for your dog if you were OK with it.

Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 7 years old. I’ve raised a lot of different animals but mainly 5 dogs (Lab, 2 Terriers, Pit Bull, Chihuahua) and 4 cats on my own. This gave me experience training aggressive big dogs, shy small dogs and caring for puppies / seniors. I can help with basic puppy/dog training and senior care (pill feeding, insulin shots etc). I fresh feed my dog due to her allergies so, I can help with feeding your dog healthier meals. I usually dog sit for my mom and my friends and foster dogs from Girls Best Friend rescue. I just have a genuine love for all animals, especially dogs, and I'm looking to make a career change into dog training soon.

Anthony took great care of my shy dog. It was nice for me that he has experience with his own shy dog. He was very responsive every time I messaged him and was flexible when my schedule changed.
