Pet care experience
Hi there! I'm a 4th year veterinary student (almost done!) with 3 years of vet tech experience before vet school, so you can be sure that your pet is in great hands. In addition to dogs, I love working with cats and exotic animals. I have a soft spot in my heart for special needs pets and am able to administer medications if needed. I'm happy to practice behavioral training with your pet, and I feel comfortable with animals with a history of behavioral issues (e.g. fear aggression, separation anxiety, potty training). School keeps me busy for about 10 hours of the day on weekdays, but I'm happy to walk and play with your fur children in the morning and evening and/or stay overnight in your home. I also have a vehicle for trips to your dog's favorite hot spots around town. Feel free to let me know if you have any questions!
Reviews
I was concerned first about leaving my older dog who was struggling with symptoms from a recent brain tumor diagnosis, and then my other tore his CCL just days before we were set to leave town! Having Toni there put my mind at ease. Her experience as veterinary professional and her clear love of animals meant my two high maintenance dogs were in excellent hands. We came home to a clean house and two happy boys who seemed to be doing as well as they could with their various ailments. :) Thanks, Toni! The boys are looking forward to their next visit (this weekend!).
Toni is a fabulous pet sitter. We felt very comfortable having her stay in our home with our pack. Her friendly, mature personality and love of dogs, plus her training as a vet, made us (and our dogs) feel very much at ease. Also, her communication was great. Highly recommend to others, which is kind of a bummer for me, because we wish we could have her sit for our dogs all the time!
Toni is awesome!! She took great care of my three legged pup, Trixie, and my little kitty, Prince Oliver! Do yourself a favor and hire her!
Toni’s amazing. Watched my dogs for 2 weeks while I was out of country. She sent me daily updates and even took them to the beach. They adore her and she really is the sweetest person!! I’d highly recommend her for any pet sitting and trust her without a doubt.

Information Toni M. would like to know about your pet
I love dogs of all shapes and sizes and have no breed preferences. I am cognizant of the limitations and health risk factors of certain breeds (e.g. large breeds, brachycephalic breeds) and will definitely work with you to make sure that your pet has the most fun and safe experience possible while you're away. I feel very comfortable working with dogs with a history of behavioral issues and will work with you to keep your pup stress-free. Before caring for your pet, I would love to talk about any pertinent previous medical history, current medications, allergies and dietary/activity restrictions. I also like to know what a typical day in the life of your pet looks like so I can try to maintain that routine and keep him/her as happy and stress-free as possible.
A typical day
I'm happy to go on long walks, play fetch and provide training and enrichment to your pup before 8am and after 6pm on weekdays (up to twice daily) and throughout the day on weekends (up to three times daily). If your dog has a special park/route near your home, just let me know. I also have a vehicle and can take your pet to the arboretum, downtown or around the lake.
