All dogs welcome, Dachshund to Dane

Pet care experience

Any opportunity to meet/care for/play with a new dog is one that I'm excited and thankful for, making Rover an ideal situation for me. Throughout my entire life, there has probably been a month total that I have not had a dog as a member of my family. At this point, it isn't a question of whether or not I want a dog, but rather how many dogs can I fit under my current roof. And the easiest way to grow that number is by getting into dog sitting! My wife and I are willing and wanting to look after your dog as if they are our own. We have jumped through hoops in the past to have our dogs cared for, and that is exactly what we want to prevent you from having to go through. Whatever we can do to make you and your 4-legged friend as comfortable as possible is what we will do. I work in personal training, but I do it independently so I set my own schedule, allowing for a wide range of flexibility with pet care. We also have no kids, so if I need to do numerous drop ins in a day, or stay the night, I have the flexibility to do that as well. And with a jeep that’s already covered in my own dogs fur, it’s easy for me to transport dogs to a dog park or vet if the need arises. Unfortunately both of my dogs are currently fighting cancer, but it has given me more practice than I’d prefer in administering medication and doing post op care. So if your four legged friend has some special needs, I’m not afraid to take on the job. Boiling everything down, I know how much your dog means to you, because I feel the same way about mine. So I would be both honored and excited with the responsibility of forging a relationship with your dog like it was just that, one of mine.

Anthony's household includes two very sweet female dogs, a fenced back yard and two humans who are compassionate, knowledgeable and very laid back with animals. When we dropped my dog off it felt like we were dropping him off at a friends house we knew for years, and their dogs already knew ours. The household is very active and our dog was taken on long walks daily. Our dog got mildly aggressive during the stay, and Anthony and his dogs brushed it off no problem. I would recommend choosing Anthony based on the environment your dog will be in (room to play, laid back) and the attention your dog will get from the household (long walks, someone is usually always home). Anthony was also very flexible with schedule, as our flight back into chicagoland was delayed. 5/5 would book again.

Anthony is awesome!! He kept me updated with daily pictures and messages. He also was very accommodating to some last minute changes due to my schedule. If you need boarding this is the place because Sheriff will definitely be back for future boarding's.

Anthony is a hard working and very responsible young man. He has had a love of animals, especially dogs since he was a little boy. He has grown up around dogs and has had to help take care of them starting at a young age. Anthony has a way with dogs that puts them right at ease and helps form a trusting bond. Whenever I am out of town he watches my dog Luna, and I am happy to say knowing that she is in good, loving hands, I am able to eliminate my biggest worry and have fun!

It’s simple. What you request is what’s going to be delivered. If a dog needs to be leashes outside, they will. If rooms are off limits, they won’t be entered. If being crated is the norm, they’ll be put back in when I leave. I’m going to do whatever is requested.

Information Anthony C. would like to know about your pet

If a dog has any special needs, I don’t see it being a problem. I’ve had my dogs long enough to have dealt with quite a few issues of my own. As long as I’m given warning and instructions, I’ll be able to handle it.

A typical day

I’ll do anything that owners want to help make my time with their dogs as enjoyable as possible. I’m very active myself, so walks of whatever distance are possible. I’ll throw a ball, take a trip to the dog park, or sit on the floor and hold a paw the whole time if that’s what the dog likes most. I just want the dog to be happy and comfortable.
