Tonia did a great job of keeping me informed on how Archie was doing and sending pictures. she had a great backyard for him to play in.

Like so many dog parents lost in the nerve wracking process of leaving your dog with someone new, we landed on Tonia. We scoured the listings and we made the RIGHT choice. She was very welcoming. We had a great meet and greet so Gus could meet her dogs and explore her space. Her house is very dog friendly and the yard is spacious and shaded. She was great at communicating and sending pics as well. Drop off and pick up was a snap. If you’re on the fence, jump on over and meet her. I would recommend to a friend and family and I would definitely use her again.

I cannot express how appreciative my wife and I are for Tonia’s care in watching our pup. She had never been boarded before and we were very nervous about it. Despite our dog Maya having a lot of separation anxiety and some reactivity to people we felt reassured knowing that someone who genuinely loves dogs and has a very calm environment was watching her. Thank you so much for your help Tonia!

This was my first time using Rover, so I was naturally a little nervous about leaving my puppy with someone new. Tonia made the entire experience so much easier. She kept me updated throughout the stay without me even having to ask, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that she genuinely cared and is amazing at what she does. I would absolutely book with Tonia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog sitter!

I can't recommend them enough! They were incredibly accommodating with all of the changes to my surgery dates and made a very stressful time so much easier. Communication was excellent, they were reliable, flexible, and took wonderful care throughout the entire process. I truly appreciated their kindness and professionalism. We'll absolutely be using them again, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone dependable and compassionate!

Tonia is absolutely amazing!!!! Not only did she update me the entire time, but she was so understanding when my flight got canceled and I had to leave them for an extra day. In every picture both of my babies looked like they were having so much fun.

Safety, trust & environment

I own my home, its a ranch home. There is one step in front and 3 to go out the back door. If your dog doesn't do well with steps, we can go out the front. We have a half acre yard in a wooded residential area that is completely fenced in. We are outdoors all the time and when my pets go out, I'm out there with them. I would care for your dogs the same way when in my home. My cats and dogs, co exist together great and my dogs love other dogs! My dogs have lived with fosters and foster fails! Pets are allowed on the furniture but not on my bed. In the event they wanted to sleep with my dogs in my room that would just fine. We have plenty of room and dog crates if we needed to crate them also.

Pets

A typical day

I have 3 dogs and 3 cats! I do NOT put dogs in cages unless the owner requests it. If your dog needs to be crated at night that's fine but normally they sleep where the want. I'm home full time, on nice days i leave my back door open and they play as much outside as they want. I have a half acre that's fully fenced in. We have a shallow pond with filtration so they dogs have access to water full time. The dogs love doing zoomies or chasing birds in the yard. I treat your pet like I do my own, if they go out, I go with them. If they get muddy, I give them a bath. I treat your dog like my own.

Requirements: IF YOUR DOG IS NOT GOOD WITH CATS OR LITTLE DOGS, I will not be a good fit. I have 2 little dogs and 3 senior cats, I do not want them to get hurt. Honesty and full transparency is necessary for us to have a good experience. I have no problem with feeding multiple times or giving medication. If you need me to give your dog an injection, I can do so. I've given humans injections and wildlife injections. I am especially great with senior dogs.
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.
