Pet care experience
Caring & Reliable Pet Sitter
Hi! My name is Toni, and I’m a 20 year old student at Temple University living in Center City, Philadelphia. I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and currently have an 8 year old dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your pets. As a dog owner, I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and providing lots of love and attention. I’m responsible, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities and energy levels. I know that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, companionship while you’re away, or extra care and attention, you can count on me to provide a safe, loving, and reliable experience. I also love sending photo updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for!

Ratings and reviews
Toni is very sweet and attentive! Tate had a great day!!
Toni is an incredible care taker and communicator!! She was available and flexible for a last minute booking and was able to accommodate an early morning/long day for my dog. She sent detailed and adorable updates and showered my dog with love. She went above and beyond and I would highly recommend her services!
Toni is amazing! I have three very different personality dogs with different issues and things to be mindful about during walks, visit, and feeding. I wrote her detailed instructions/tips about handling, and she was able to follow them really well. She did a great job walking/handling my dog reactive dog, which was one of things I was most concerned about. More importantly, Toni was very responsive and gave me detailed update on each visit and anything that she has noted unusual. My dogs were stressed and had accidents at home before she came for drop-in visits. She was always really patient and helped me clean up the mess without me even asking for it. I would 100% rebook with her!!

Schedule
Pet care fits well into my weekly routine because I currently have a very open and flexible schedule. I typically go to the gym in the morning around 8am, and outside of that I’m actively searching for employment as a waitress, so my days are not strictly structured yet. I recently returned from studying neuroscience abroad through my university, and I’m now in a transition period where I have full availability and flexibility. This allows me to reliably fit in pet care visits, walks, and check-ins throughout the day and week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings as needed.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always adjust based on the specific service and the pet’s needs. I follow any provided feeding, walking, and care instructions closely to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I make sure pets have fresh water, clean spaces, and plenty of attention, whether that’s playtime, companionship, or quiet time depending on their personality. I’m very patient and observant, so I pay attention to behavior and comfort levels, and I always prioritize making pets feel safe and cared for in their environment. I also care for my own dog on a consistent daily routine, which includes 3–4 walks per day, two scheduled meals (morning around 8am and afternoon around 2–3pm), and regular exercise and play such as long walks and fetch. This has given me strong experience maintaining structure, consistency, and understanding a dog’s daily needs.
