Highlights
Pet care experience
Love to take your pup on adventures
I cared for my rescue dog for over 10 years. When we first brought her home, she had limited socialization skills, but with patience and love, we helped her gain confidence and feel safe. In her senior years, I also managed her health needs, including administering medication and supplements. She has since passed away, but the experience shaped my deep love and understanding of dogs, and I bring that same care and compassion to every pet I look after.

I’m passionate about the outdoors and would love to take your pup on walks or hikes as I’m always on the lookout for a new adventure. I'm also very flexible with the services I can offer, ensuring your pup gets the care and attention they need.
Ratings and reviews
Antonia was an incredible sitter. Our two puppies (Benny and Paisley) loved her company. She was excellent, on time and had great knowledge of dogs with different needs. She walked and fed our dogs daily during our four week vacation. She was flexible and always put our dogs needs first. Highly recommend Antonia if you want a sitter that genuinely cares.
I was super nervous about going away as we have two very special needs dogs. One is geriatric with vestibular disease and kidney issues, and the other is a recent rescue dog who is very dog reactive. Toni was impressively confident and capable with both my dogs. She can manage medical, and behavioural challenges and is knowledgeable and confident with complex dogs. I feel very reassured to have my dogs with Toni. Additionally the house was beautifully clean, plants watered and everything taken care of. Cannot recommend her enough!
Toni looked after our rescue dog and cat two weekends in a row and was great with them. We were nervous as it was the first time leaving our dog (that can be a handful) with someone other than parents - but Toni proved to take great care of him for us. He was spoiled with lots of time outside and all our instructions left were followed! We would happily have Toni take care of our pets again and will recommend! :)
Thank you so much for looking after our big baby Antonia! Since he gets so anxious being away from us, having you stay with him put us at ease for our whole trip. We really appreciated all the updates and all the work you put into making him feel comfortable!
Toni is absolutely wonderful at communicating, and providing our special needs dog with excellent care. It is so reassuring to know he is in such capable hands!
It was our first time hiring a petsitter, so we were a bit nervous leaving our dog and home with someone, but Antonia was wonderful. Our rescue dog is quite anxious with new people but Antonia took great care of her and our plants. She sent pictures and was able to clean up and care for our dog when she was feeling sick. Would book again!
