Pet care experience

Perfect OpPURRtunity for Pet Care!

Hi! My name is Nontombe, but you can call me Tommy! ☺️ I was featured in the Sitter Spotlight across Rover’s social media platforms on November 6, 2025! Biggest honor in my pet sitting career! ☺️ I am very patient and have raised 2 dogs from the puppy stage. The training process can be a little ruff 🐾, but very rewarding. It’s fun tricking them to learning new things and watching them grow and develop. My current dog is 10 years old and spoiled rotten. She lives with my mom as her protector, but is still very much my baby. She is super smart, loves belly rubs and neck scratches, while protecting my family.

From Monday through Friday, I will be available for the following services: - Boarding - Drop-Ins (early mornings/late afternoons) Saturday and Sunday I offer my full range of services: - Boarding - Drop-Ins (cats and dogs) - Dog Walks - Doggy Daycare I also offer extended stays if you need a long-term sitter.

Safety, trust & environment

🚨For Boarding and Doggy Daycare, I require that your doggies are crate trained!🚨 If your pet is not crate trained or has a high level of separation anxiety to where they cannot be left alone, unfortunately I am not best sitter for your needs. There may be times where I have to run errands, hit the gym or handle other business, so I would love to trust your pet to behave while I am gone. If no other dogs are in my care (or if they make a new friend ☺️), they will be able to free roam with supervision. Otherwise, they will be crated for their safety and the safety of my home. I provide dogs with food, water, and a comfortable place to sleep. I have a spacious backyard perfect for games of fetch! 🎾 I play with them and provide treats for good behavior. For my kitties, I give them as much love as they want and leave them alone when they want their space! I also send TONS of videos and pictures so that you are aware of how your baby is doing in my care. I like to let pets be as autonomous as possible and provide attention and love when they want it. I promise they will love it here! 💕

A typical day

I provide ample backyard space for your pet to stretch their legs. If toys are provided, I have no problem stimulating them with play time and giving them lots of love and head scratches. I live in a quiet neighborhood that is perfect to take your pet on strolls. Sometimes we see deer on our walks! It’s great exercise for them and extra cardio for me! :)

Temperament is important when forming a relationship with your pet, so please let me know how they would like to be approached and handled. I usually let pets come to me and get comfortable, but if they are shy and need a little extra love and patience, just let me know! Please let me know if they have any specific medications or treats they like to have and the appropriate administration methods. I will have treats that I can give periodically, but if you have a specific brand/type, please bring them with you.
