Pets are Family!

Pet care experience

I've had dogs my whole life. I have ten years of experience working in dog rescue. I've fostered dogs, picked them up from shelters to go to the rescue, walked rescue dogs in boarding, helped at adoption events, helped with rescue transport and been there to help them cross the bridge. I lost my own dog, a sweet Boxer girl, to cancer just this past Spring of 2017 and live with my brother and sister-in-law and their two Chi mixes. All rescue. I also have long-term dog-sitting experience with people who traveled for 2-3 weeks at a time. I will treat your dog like the family member they are...love them like they are my own. Normally I would have given myself more time before getting another fur-child. But... I was asked a few weeks ago to foster a Boxer with Epilepsy and have fallen in love. He's what we call in rescue a "foster failure." That's a good thing. He's my boy now. His name is Jameson and he's stolen my heart and helped me heal. * There isn't a place to list my rate for an additional pet that is a cat. If you book me for an overnight for your dog/dogs, I charge 5.00 per cat if you also have a cat.

When I first brought Kona home, she was extremely timid and wary of everything and everyone. I read up on multiple Rover dog walkers as well as the professional companies on Yelp, but Toni's glowing reviews and extensive experience with rescue dogs caught my eye. She came by for a meet and greet with Kona and it was clear that she 1) absolutely loves what she does and 2) knew exactly how to help Kona come out of her shell. After just three days, Kona became more confident and affectionate. A testament to Toni's warmth and love for dogs. Thank you, Toni!

I left my three babies with Toni for 2 weeks as we went out of country. It was my first time using her for such a long stay. My dogs aren't always the best behaved, but thankfully Toni is great at working with different needs and temperaments. I am amazed at what an amazing job she did!! I came back yesterday to a sparkling clean house, 3 balanced and content animals. There were no issues during my trip. She provided updates and photos so I didn't feel so far away. The peace of mind knowing that my animals were so well taken care of is priceless. I will definitely work with her again. Thank you Toni for being such a loving and reliable caretaker!!!

Information Toni L. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know how your dog is with other dogs. If he/she is not good with them, I am okay with that. I just need to know so our walk is safe. I'd also like to know what activities/toys are your dogs favorites. And, definitely I need to know any medical issues. And I love all dogs no matter what breed!

A typical day

If your dog prefers walking in your neighborhood then that's where we will go. But, we can also go to a nearby dog park. And, no matter where we go, your dog will never be off leash. We can also play in your yard or inside, if you wish. All dogs have different needs and I tailor what we do to your dog specifically. Most importantly, your dog will get the playtime, exercise and love he or she deserves.
