Information Tony C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs I can account for! I especially like to know if they’re friendly with other dogs or will need to keep separated or have individual care.

A typical day

We will have lots of play in the living room, couch cuddle time, and explore all over my neighborhood, then hit the local park to RUN IT OUT.

Pet care experience

I’m Tony, a dog lover who will cross the street just to meet a cute pup. I’m a calm, confident, and sensitive caregiver who often hears the phrase, “Wow, my dog has NEVER warmed up to someone that fast!”. My schedule is flexible and I have lots of energy for walking and running your pups!

Tony was so great with our dog, Bean! Upon meeting him, our dog just walked with him and didn’t even look back! He also gave us constant updates - sharing photos and messages to make sure we know our dog is comfy and in great hands. We are so grateful that we didn’t have to worry about anything while we were away!

Tony was so good with my puppy Jolie! Although Jolie is the sweetest girl, she can also be very timid & nervous at first. Tony took the time to get Jolie comfortable and earn her trust during her first time away from her parents. Tony also sent us updates & pictures during the stay which really helped ease our own anxiety, which was much appreciated. If you especially want a dog sitter with patience & great communication, Tony is your guy! He will be our go to sitter from now on; he is Jolie approved! 👌🏽

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.
