Pet care experience
Hi, I'm Toni! I'm a Class of 2018 CMU Graduate who works full time and walks dogs in my spare time. I love animals, and have since I was a child. When I was in middle school, I started my own dog walking business. I continued this service all through high school, and had a total of two clients and walked 4 dogs at the same time! Both of my clients also had me dog sit for them while they were away, so I've had in-home experience caring for dogs (apart from our own family dog). I also volunteered at my local humane society for 4 years, where I took care of puppies and adult dogs by feeding, walking, and socializing them. All this time around dogs made me want me own, so I wrote a persuasive letter to my parents asking if we could get one! That was when we added Maya to the family, and she's been a huge reason why I wanted to continue walking dogs when I went off to college. I missed having my own dog at college, so I adopted my own! I'm now a proud dog mom of my Mini Aussie, Apollo. I love to spoil him with toys, treats, and affection. So when you book a walk with me, you're helping me give him extra loving! I'm an avid dog and cat lover, and I would love the opportunity to help care for best friend!
Reviews
Toni was wonderful! She kept me updated throughout the weekend with pics and check ins. We had a lot to do while we were away and it was comforting to know that our dog was in good hands!
This was our second time hiring Toni and she did great. We requested a walk during an outdoor photo shoot we were in and she was so flexible and kind. Thanks Toni!
Toni is very knowledgeable about dog needs and obviously cares about their well-being. She was very responsive and super accommodating to Archie’s walking needs.
Toni is very reliable and thorough. She did a great job taking care of my cat. Thanks Toni!

I do not currently offer in-home pet care as I live in a small apartment with four pets. I am currently only available for dog walking and drop-in visits.
Information Toni M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any behavioral issues, medications, or favorite routines! I have some experience with reactive dogs, but would love to know more about any training you are actively working on with your pup prior to taking care of them.
A typical day
If you have a yard (or a nearby fenced in area) and your dog loves fetch, I'm more than happy to play fetch with them during my visit.
Services
Toni can watch in your home
Availability
I currently work full-time but am 100% remote with a flexible schedule. On most days, I can care for pets anytime after 2 PM, but I get off work at 5 PM and am most flexible then. Thursdays and Fridays are my weekends, and are my most flexible days on top of that!
