Your Paws in Good Hands with Toby
Pet care experience
As a lifelong dog enthusiast, I've cultivated a passion for canine companionship, having successfully raised two pups into swimming champs, frisbee aces, and models of obedience. My commitment to nurturing non-aggressive, loving pets has made me the go-to person for friends and family entrusting me with their furry loved ones. With a proven track record of canine excellence and a heart dedicated to their well-being, I am your ideal choice for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter or walker. Let me turn every stroll into an adventure and each visit into a tail-wagging celebration! 🐾
Reviews
Toby was excellent. Very attentive, wore our dog out, and lots of pictures! Excellent experience, would love to book with Toby again!
Toby and his family have been so loving and caring towards Kewpie during her 10 day stay. They treat Kewpie as one of their own and have taken to her very quickly. Toby will send updates as (in)frequently as requested. Kewpie loves this family and enjoys the time spent with them. The ease of communication and kindness of this family is a no brainer for future bookings.
Toby is a wonderful pet sitter that is reliable, trustworthy, and communicates very well.My pup is big, strong, and full of energy so I was a bit nervous she would pester his dog Millie, and the rest of his family, but their family and home are so welcoming and dog friendly. Toby is a knowledgeable dog lover that treats my dog as his own. She excitedly jumps out of the car upon arrival and dreads leaving when I pick her up. I love that she’s well cared for and loved while I’m gone and comes back to me happy and tired from all of the walks, playtime and swimming that she can never get enough of. So grateful for Toby and his sweet family!
Hello Rover, My son Toby is an excellent candidate to work w/ you in providing caregiving to pets. I have lived w/ pets most of my life, and therefore I have seen Toby from a young age interacting w/ assorted pets. As a young child, he was always in good relationships w/ our cats and dogs, and it was clear that the pets were comfortable w/ him. This has continued into his adulthood. LuLu, the dog he had as a young adult, was one of the sweetest and well behaved dogs I have known. Over the years people have enjoyed labeling me as a "dog whisperer", and though I agree that I have history w/ being fortunate w/ my dogs' character, and have often alleged that Toby's first dog was trained by me and my then current dog, the truth was that he had her most of the time and she was wonderful. This has continued to the present day, and as a matter of fact he called me the other evening when he was walking his current dog Milly, and he paused the conversation when he and Milly encountered another passerby w/ that person's dog, and the interaction I overheard reminded me how well behaved and friendly Milly is and how skilled and sincere Toby is in his interactions w/ pets and their people. Given how cat-like cats can be, it's hard to evaluate how he does w/ cats in general, but when he met his wife to be she had a beloved older cat and soon he was part of their growing family and the dog that Toby brought to the relationship and Toby were both welcomed into the relationship and everyone got along fine. Only a week or 2 ago, Toby got a hermit crab for his son's 8th birthday. He and the family quickly obtained information and equipment to make the crab be healthy and happy, including getting a 2nd crab after hearing how social they can be. Both crabs appear happy and healthy now. Toby's 3 children were devoted to and extremely comfortable w/ both dogs that have been part of this family (the youngest child only knew 1 of them), all 3 kids love to play and cuddle w/ Milly and show off her off when they are outside. I think you will have a great Rover employee w/ Toby.

I have a small yard but I walk my dog every 2 hours and can provide plenty of play with my very friendly 2-year-old golden Milly. I live very close to parks I can walk/run and dog parks I can take them to.
