Wagging Tails Are Happy Tails!

Pet care experience

I’m a recently retired Human Resource professional and aspiring fiction writer. I’ve been dog sitter for family and friends for more than 2 decades. As a responsible pet owner, I understand your need for a reliable dog sitter. I understand how to comfort your pet in your absence. It is my goal to earn your repeat business by adhering to feeding schedules, administering medications, walking and ensuring that you are confident that your pet has an attentive sitter while you're away. From the moment your dog enters my home until they leave, they are family! Wagging tails are happy tails!

Robert is a kind person and took great care of our dog, Louie. He regularly provided photos and updates, and helped Louie feel right at home. Your pet will be in great hands with Robert :) We would be happy to book again.

Thank you so much Robert! We contacted Robert just a few days before our trip after our dog sitting option fell threw. He was very responsive, accommodating and an excellent communicator. We could tell that our dog was so well loved and cared for in his home. Robert sent us updates multiple times each day, which we really appreciated. We will definitely be contacting Robert in the future and would highly recommend him to anyone else seeking a loving, safe and reliable dog sitter.

Taufiq is absolutely the best pet sitter ever. Caring and loving for my dog. I felt very safe. I got my furbaby back in great condition I would use Toffee again

Toffee is an amazing pet sitter! He is dependable, trustworthy and took care of our furry family members as if they were his own. He was available on short notice and took exceptional care of our pets while they were in his care. He put our heart at ease while we were away by sending us a couple pictures of our pets. I highly recommend Toffee for all your pet sitting needs!

Safety, trust & environment

I have fenced yard and a playful 4 pound Pomeranian. She is kennel trained and mannerly. Clean and quiet Non smoking/Drug free home with small but secure patio/yard area. Loving, attentive care. For housesitting clients, I am a courteous guest. I use as little of your space as necessary, possibly only a microwave, etc. I bring my own blanket/pillow, etc. I'm comfortable with nanny-cams and surveillance cameras being on 24/7. My community does not allow me to care for excessive barkers, adult pit bulls, Doberman and other large breeds that can be aggressive.

Information Robert S. would like to know about your pet

Most important to know ahead of time is feeding schedule and anything your pet is apprehensive about. I like to know if your dog prefers to play with my small dog or if your baby is not comfortable with other dogs.

A typical day

My neighborhood is very walkable. I have a variety of dog puzzles. Lots of toys playtime round out our days. We provide treats and try to review basic commands as stimulation.
