Safety, trust & environment

Your pet(s) safety is my number one concern. Ensuring all escape routes are secured before allowing them outside, locking doors, and putting away any potential choking hazards are all steps I take.

Information Tonie B. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences, but I have always had cats and large dogs myself. To care for your pet, I do need to know if they have any fears/allergies to avoid any incidents.

A typical day

Activities are dependent upon your fur baby's needs, whether that means walks, playtime, or cuddling! I believe in positive reinforcement, and allowing dogs to follow their noses (within reason!).

Pet care experience

I have had cats and large dogs my entire life, but professionally I have experience working in a pet boarding/daycare facility, as well as veterinary assistant experience. I am capable of giving medications & performing CPR should the need arise. I have some training experience, so can follow any regime your dog is on. I believe in positive reinforcement. I have worked with various breeds, and acknowledge their differences based on needed playtime & walks. I have a passion for keeping animals safe, happy, & healthy. I enjoy getting to know the different personality quirks of each individual animal, whether they are a goofy puppy, grumpy cat, talkative bird, or cuddly guinea pig. For all of my services, I suggest a meet-&-greet in advance for your peace of mind, your animals comfort, & to give me a sense of your animals needs.

We have used Toni twice and each time have come back to a happy and loved on doggo. She was communicative and we’d be happy to use her again and again!

Tonie did great with our pups! She sent tons of pictures and kept us updated on how they were doing, even when she herself wasn't feeling great! We appreciate all the care you took into caring for our pups Tonie 😊

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.
