Retired and Love Pets!

Pet care experience

My very first job at 15 years old was at a pet store in Michigan. I worked there for over 8 years and it was always my favorite job! I went on to become a corporate accountant but now I am 'retired' early thanks to my husband and I want to go back to loving on pets!! I have had my own personal pets my entire life and they are my children! I am currently retired so I have plenty of time to play with and love on your pets! I prefer mornings or evenings but am super flexible! I will watch your animal in your home according to the guidelines I am given. I will treat your pets as you do to the best of my ability!

Tonya was great. She came when she was supposed to and walked my dog.

Don't miss out. Tonya is the one! I was in Panama City Beach on business and soon realized my senior furbaby wasn't able to attend my meetings. I needed a sitter I could trust, and I needed her quick. I reached out LATE the night before. Tonya got back to me quickly, and with a don't worry I'm here to help attitude. I met her the next day and I don't know who loved her more, me or my furbaby. Her work ethic is amazing. She did an above and beyond job. She sent pictures and videos and communicated any concerns immediately. It was because of her work ethic I was able to focus on my business knowing Sarai was safe and happy. I would highly recommend Tania. She is one of a kind. I only wish we lived closer so I could continue to use her as my daily sitter. Thank you so much for everything you did for us. I appreciate you. Sarai misses you already.

Tonya is fantastic! We left our beagle with her and her husband for a week and had such peace of mind she was being taken care of and spoiled. We cannot recommend her enough!

Tonya and husband watched our boy while visiting PCB for a week. She was absolutely fantastic! She was so patient with our boy who was not used to be without us. The first day he was sad, but she had a way to win him over to the point that by the 3rd day we mentioned to him we were leaving to Ms Tonya's house and he sprung up! Granted… her pool helped a lot! lol. She took gorgeous pictures of him and funny videos and stayed in touch all day long. We cannot be happier of having found her and trusting her with our pup! Our time in PCB was awesome and she played a huge part in that! Thank you, dear Tonya! You'll be in our contacts for a next time! :D

Safety, trust & environment

My husband and I have both had our Covid shots. So your pet is safe with in your home our ours! I have also passed an American Red Cross Cat/Dog CPR online course. I will not board pets in my home unless they are cat friendly and are crate trained for bedtime (you must provide their crate). Also, in order to board in my home, the pet must be 100% potty trained. I also have an inground pool. If your doggie is not water friendly or used to being around a pool then boarding in my home may not be a good idea. Otherwise, I can easily watch in your home where they are probably most comfortable anyways.

Information Tonya M. would like to know about your pet

If your dog has special needs or has been known to be a biter, please let me know ahead of time in order to be better prepared. If I am boarding your pet or house sitting, please let me know if your pet has separation anxiety. This will change the scope of the booking as I will need to be with the pet the whole time.

We will walk and run (if your doggie is able to). We will play games and have lots of scratches. I will also play with your favorite toy!

I am currently 'retired' so I have plenty of time for spoiling and caring for your pets! I am available often at a moments notice if needed. Please read "safety, trust & environment" if you wish to have your pet boarded at my home. I do not mind sitting with your pet with social anxiety but depending on how many hours, it may be more than the normal house sitting fee. We can agree to a fair rate.
