I work full time during the week as a teacher from end of August through The beginning of June with working from home during the summer. I can leave work midday to let my dogs out to go potty most days. He has full range of the house so they are not cooped up all day if I can’t make it home. I live with my sister so days I can’t make it home, she can. On weekends I am home. I spend time taking my fur babies on walks or to petsmart to get them out of the house.

Safety, trust & environment

When house sitting, I care for the pets as instructed by the owners. For dogs, I prefer someone with a fenced in yard so I can let their pet run free but I don’t mind taking the dog for a walk as long as the dog is leash friendly.

Information Toni P. would like to know about your pet

If the dog is not animal friendly that is huge to know especially if I am expected to walk the dog. If they are escape artists (from crate, collar, harness, yard) that is imperative for walking.

A typical day

I love a good tug of war and snuggles on the couch. Romping in the yard is also nice. Going for walks is great for mutual exercise as long as the dog walks/runs well on the leash. I run semi regularly so if a dog needs a jogging buddy I can do that as well.

Dog and Cat lover

Pet care experience

I’ve owned dogs and cats of my own ever since I was little. I’ve owned dogs as big as rottweilers and as small as a Chinese crested. I live with my sister who owns a pit bull and we both have two cats. They all get along with each other and with other animals as well. Having a dog that can not be boarded due to separation anxiety when it comes to overnight kennel stays, I understand needing someone available to watch your fur babies from the comfort of their own home. My cats are less excited about starters being in the house with them but on long trips away we manage to find someone to drop in on them.

Toni was very responsive in sending pictures and updating us on Maverick. She visited our place once in the morning and once in the evening. Our cat loved her visits. She spent more time than we carved out because she felt that our cat would appreciate it. We will definitely hire her again to take care of Maverick. Thank you so much!!

Toni is such a wonderful pet sitter, we trust her completely with our cats. She is totally on top of it and let us know if anything was out of the ordinary with the cats and with our house while we were gone. Highly recommended and we will be using her again!

Once again, Toni was professional and responsive when caring for my two cats. She is so kind and sweet with them and communicates everything that is happening which I very much appreciate. Thanks you so much, Toni!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
