Treated my pumpkin as she should be treated and asked before he did anything with her. Which is a big deal to us!

Antonio is an awesome dog sitter! Every time that I have booked a stay with him he has been communicative and flexible. He always goes the extra mile to make sure my pup is happy and well taken care of. My pup genuinely enjoys his home away from home. Antonio is a great guy and an awesome dog sitter. So 5 starts to Antonio, highly recommend!

Antonio is a very kind and caring person with a big heart. He is wonderful with my 3 fur babies and treats them like family. I highly recommend him.

"I know Antonio to be a kind and caring person. He is a very positive, energetic person with a good work ethic. He is well liked and his positive attitude affects those who come in contact with him. I have seen his love of animals personally. He once rescued a baby blue jay from one of the stray cats in the neighborhood, and he is good to our cat Spot, who happens to be the same cat that he rescued the baby blue jay from. We took in the cat after the blue jay incident. My seven year old daughter adores him, and I feel that if I can trust him with my child, he can be trusted with a person's pet. The world needs more people like Antonio. I am proud to call him my friend."

Information Antonio A. would like to know about your pet

Are they allergic to anything? How much food do they eat and when? Do they chase livestock and wildlife? How are they with children? Do they do well at parks or are they more of a hike on a trail type? Are they trained or do they need training?

A typical day

I like being active and I specialize in rough housing with dogs and getting them tired! Especially bigger dogs enjoy that about me and are always eager to see me again. I however only do that on my terms. I am super careful that they understand I very much am an alpha pack leader and am always in control and that its not cool to do that with everybody. I love training and socializing hard to deal with dogs. They all deserve a chance! I have a cool calm and collected energy that surprises everone I meet. Whenever I need to chill I love to play guitar and sing. Dogs and cats always calm down and enjoy it when I do that around them. I love cycling and jogging too, but Im totally fine walking slowly with senior dogs. I also like fishing and enjoy having a doggy present to talk to! Nature and hiking and exploring new things is something I have always enjoyed.
