Work from Home Passionate Dog Lover

My family has always had a dog and my mother made sure I learned how to care for our pet. From an early age, my mother trusted me completely with our furry family member. All our dogs lived long lives, so I know and enjoy all stages of a dog's life - from being a puppy to the gentle senior soul. Now, my husband and I have two beautiful rescue puppies that love other dogs and humans. Since I work from home, I have the privilege to spend all day with my fur babies and I wouldn't want it any other way. Dogs are amazing animals and I feel very connected with them. That's why my family and friends have always told me to care for as many dogs as possible. My husband and I both work from home, so your dog(s) will never be alone and have plenty of walks, play- and cuddle time! We pay a lot of attention to the pets - from playing in the backyard to cuddling! We have a big fenced backyard and two friendly dogs that will keep your fur baby entertained and company. Whenever it's feeding and/or treat time, I stay with the dogs to make sure they are ok. On walks I interact and focus on the dogs as I enjoy my time with my favorite "people".

Antonia was so sweet to take our two boxers over spring break. She was fantastic - I can tell that they really liked her a lot, as did we! She was responsive, caring and proactive with sharing information. Will certainly book with Antonia again.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard that the dogs have access to whenever they want to go outside. My two dogs can keep your pup company and love to play, but your best friend can also enjoy downtown.

Pets

A typical day

I love to go for walks to different areas and parks. That way the dogs never get bored and can explore new things. While on walks I like to physically and mentally stimulate them. During hot summer months I like to play games and do puzzles inside. Veterans Park, Westcave Preserve, Lakewood Park and others are very close to our house.

The more I know about your dog(s), the better. That way I exactly know how to care for them the best way. I like to learn about personalities, likes/don't likes, preferences, play and walk behavior, etc. Not only will it help me and your dog to have the best time, but I also find each furry friend's unique character fascinating!
