Antonella took truly exceptional care of our dog Venya. Venya has very strong separation anxiety, and Antonella did absolutely everything to make her feel comfortable, safe, and loved during our trip. From the first day, she was patient, gentle, and incredibly attentive — exactly the kind of person you hope to find on Rover. She sent regular updates and photos, checked in about every detail, and followed all of Venya’s routines perfectly. She walked her often, comforted her when she was stressed, and made sure she had her familiar blankets, treats, and cozy spots. Thanks to Antonella’s kindness and calm energy, Venya settled in so much faster than we expected. Antonella also went above and beyond with communication — always responsive, always thoughtful, always making sure Venya’s needs were met. We felt completely at ease the entire time, which is rare for us given Venya’s anxiety. We are incredibly grateful for her care and would 100% book with her again. If your dog has anxiety or needs extra patience, Antonella is the perfect sitter. Highly recommended! 💛🐾

Antonella is without a doubt the most genuinely pet loving person I have ever met. Her devotion to animals is deep, shaped by years of caring for her own three dogs throughout their entire lives. She tended to every single one of their needs with patience and joy. A good example is her care for Chiquita, her last dog, who suffered from serious heart problems in her final years. Antonella not only prepared and cooked Chiquita's meals, but also hand fed her when needed, ensuring she was always hydrated and well fed. She never missed a single dose of medication and carried Chiquita outside daily so she could smell around, even when walking became too difficult. If it weren't for Antonella's love Chiquita's life wouldn't have been as enjoyable and peaceful as it was. The compassion and dedication she showed her in those moments reflect the kind of caregiver she is. She is equally wonderful with energetic dogs. Antonella often takes care of Porfirio, a Corgi/Australian Shepherd mix. With what I think is an actually endless tank of energy, Porfirio demands multiple walks a day and endless games of fetch, a task Antonella handles with genuine enthusiasm. Just seeing how Porfirio reacts when he sees Antonella shows how much he adores her. Antonella has also cared for my two Boston Terriers and every time I feel complete peace of mind knowing they are with her, I truly believe they're in even better hands than my own. In short Antonella combines warmth, responsibility and genuine love for animals. I trust her completely and can't imagine a better person to care for anyone's pets.

Antonella is an incredibly dedicated and responsible caregiver. She has taken care of my furbaby Porfirio multiple times over the course of years, and sometimes he loves her more than he loves me! She has followed my care instructions to a tee and is great at communicating over text. Very responsive and you can just tell she has a great love and talent for animals. Highly recommended :)

I personally and very closely know how Antonella relates with dogs, she is extremely caring and loving with them. She has had dogs at home for many years so she understands their behavior and is very responsible when it comes to take care of them. I could not think of anyone better to be a pet caregiver, she definitely involves with dogs in many ways.
