Safety, trust & environment

I intend to treat your pets exactly how they need. Playful? no worries! I love to play! Withdrawn? that's okay! I won't push their boundaries!

Information Toby J. would like to know about your pet

Whatever info that might be concerning you! Even if its something small I want to be able to ease all of your worries! Aswell as if I need to take special measures for said pets I would also prefer doing a meet and greet with certain animals (dogs mainly) so they know my scent and maybe do a test walk with them so they arent as afraid

A typical day

A bunch of walks! Even if the little buddy can't walk themselves, getting them some air and all the new scents would be so stellar! Definitely a bunch of playtime and cuddles, and if the pets can handle it, I make homemade treats from time to time that they definitely can try!

Toby is super punctual, dependable, kind, and caring. Toby watched my 9 week old puppy twice, and he was very loving and patient. During the time he stayed at my house, he not only watched my puppy for several hours, but also played with him and fed him per my instructions. I highly recommend Toby to take care of any pets. Toby is a spectacular pet sitter and an amazing human being.
