Pet care experience

Furbaby sitting is my calling.

I am a dog and cat lover since childhood. I currently have a Pug and an orange American Bobtail cat, Opie and Kayleigh, respectively. They are my life's joy. Over the years, I have babysat for friends' dogs. It is fun and brings me much joy to do so.

Tonya did a great job with Levi. He was well taken care of and I got updates with pictures a couple times a day. I will absolutely book her again.

Boarding • Jul 24, 2026

From the initial meet-and-greet, Tonya was wonderful. We had a great conversation, and as a first-time puppy mom, she gave me helpful tips and suggestions that immediately put me at ease. Nova completed a 6-hour trial with Tonya and her dog, Opie, and it was Nova's first time socializing away from me. Throughout the day, Tonya kept me updated on how Nova was adjusting, interacting, and behaving, which gave me so much peace of mind. I felt completely comfortable leaving Nova in Tonya's care and could tell she genuinely loves and understands dogs. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, knowledgeable, and trustworthy pet sitter.

My husband and I jokingly call her "aunt Tonya" because she provides such kindness and care for our fur babies, and we trust her 100% with our pet needs. Thanks for everything!

Tonya was amazing! Great communication setting up the boarding, sent daily updates, and I could tell our dogs had a great time :)

Schedule

I am retired, after 21 years with the City of Pasadena. I was a Deputy Court Clerk. Being home most of the time, I will be able to treat clients' furbabies like my own and provide the attention and care that they need and deserve.
