We’ll Treat Your Pets Like Family

Hey Everyone! I'm Anthony, but most people just call me Tony! I grew up with a Siberian Husky and a Pug so I’ve always loved dogs of all shapes and sizes! I used to do Rover full time when I was in college and had such a fun time with so many incredibly owners and amazing pups. I took a long break, but now find myself with lots of spare time and I would love to spend it with your pups! I currently live in a spacious apartment in Astoria with my beautiful girlfriend Sofiya, who is also rover certified, and our brindle Pug Dulce! When your pup is with us, they will be treated how they’re meant to be treated; like family. We have years of experience with dogs of all different sizes, breeds, and age. I am trained in dog CPR and administering medication. If you have any special requests just let me know!

Anthony & Sofiya were WONDERFUL with our rescue pup!!! They were both so sweet and caring with her, and she was immediately comfortable in their house. Anthony/Sofiya checked in multiple times with updates and photos— and their pug Dolce is the cutest cuddle bug who was super chill with our dog. Will 1000% book with them again.

Duke loves spending time at Anthony’s place with his pug, Dulce, when we go out of town! As soon as we exit the train in his part of the neighborhood, Duke drags us straight to his place as fast as he can. This behavior alone tells us that he is both treated well and thoroughly enjoys his time there. Anthony and his girlfriend always sends us updates, photos and videos. Definitely recommend!

We left our dog with Anthony and his partner for a week and they were the best sitters we could have asked for! They took care of cosmo like he was one of their own and kept us updated constantly when pictures so we weren’t missing him too much lol. They were so communicative and flexible with our schedule we really appreciated working with them, they couldn’t have made the whole process any smoother. They are phenomenal pet sitters and absolutely recommend them for your pet!

Anthony was very attentive to Moji’s needs and gave him great care! We appreciated all the pictures and updates everyday we were away from our little guy. We felt fully at ease leaving him with Anthony.

Tony and Sofiya are the sweetest! I was really nervous to leave Winnie because it’s the first time I left her with someone who wasn’t family, but Tony and Sofiya took such good care of her and sent me regular updates with pictures of her snuggling with their little pug, Dulce. They even brushed her teeth and dealt with her leash reactivity on walks with ease. It was easy to see that Winnie was in good hands!

Safety is a #1 priority. We believe pets are more than just pets, they are family and you do everything to take care of your family.

We have access to multiple veterinarians minutes away in the case of any emergencies. We also have a Pet camera with a 24/7 stream.
