Flexible and Available Dog Lover!!

Pet care experience

I just LOVE animals and they seem to love me! I have quite a bit of experience caring for various dogs, cats, etc. I've also helped my 3 children raise a variety of animals as well! Out of many things I could be doing I choose caring for pets because it's one of the most gratifying jobs! You can be assured and comforted to know that I'll take great care of your loved one and your home! :-D Just a few pet care jobs I've had: 4 show dogs that I walked, played with, bathed and exercised. Another family I worked for had 2 large dogs that I walked and loved. And yet another family has 4 dogs of various breeds that I care for. I also house sit for them often. Let me know what your needs are, and I'm sure I could accommodate! I also have my daughter Lulu help me. She is also an experienced pet sitter as well! Warmly, Toni I am very flexible and can accommodate most schedules. I am my own boss for the extra work I do, so this frees me up. :-D My focus while caring for your pet is their safety, well being and trust. Since I am very caring, calm and affectionate, this makes it easy for your pets and me!

Toni took care of our 3 cats and stayed at our small house. She sent daily update photos and you can tell she really cares about the animals and they connected with her and felt comfortable with her. I think it's so important to know that your pets, especially the shy or wary ones, are with someone that will love them or give them space as needed. Toni gave us complete peace of mind because she really understands animals and their needs, which can be difficult with cats! I will definitely be requesting her services again.

Toni did such a great job dog sitting Bruce. He took to her really quickly and we could tell that he was happy and loved while we were away. We will definitely be booking Toni going forward.

Toni is amazing…a kind, thoughtful soul with a clear love of animals. This was the first time we hired a house/petsitter we didn’t know either directly or through a close friend…our first time using Rover. We were traveling for almost a month and I needed someone to fill a one week gap. Toni took great care of our home, our dog, and our crazy cat. She sent lots of pictures and was a great communicator. We will definitely hire her again!

Toni was fantastic with Holly! She was a great communicator, sending photos every day. It's obvious how much she loves all animals, and she took good care of my home as well. Toni is very friendly and super easy to work with.

Information Toni D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, a special diet, or if medication is needed. I have experience in these areas. Is your pet very active, and does your doggy bark throughout the night?

A typical day

What the dogs seem to love are the off leash hikes if this is available. In Marin, I also like to go to the dog beach at San Quentin at times, or a dog park of the family's choice. If walks aren't part of my care, it's still important to exercise the dogs in whatever way works for them individually. Whether it's fetching, playing with toys and playful interaction, I'll find something that your pets will like. And almost definitely I will end up in a cuddling session! :-D
