About: I have been taking care of pets, mainly dogs and cats for as long as I can remember! I grew up with dogs and would take care of my neighbors animals when they went on vacation. I would also take my neighbors dogs on walks and do drop in visits if they got stuck at work or had other obligations. I work from home remotely so you can have the peace of mind that your pet wont be left unsupervised for long periods of time. The way I care for pets in the clients home is ensure I arrive on time to guarantee your pet gets the exact amount of care and attention scheduled. Every drop in I follow a strict checklist to ensure comprehensive care. My rough checklist for Drop Ins/Walks: -Immediate outdoor break with exercise -Feeding and fresh water and if needed, administer medications. -Clean up litter boxes if taking care of cats and cleaning up any possible accidents -Affection and more playtime and mental stimulation for higher energy dogs/cats. -Any other requests just ask & I will fit those into my checklist Once I leave your home I triple check to make sure your pet is secure, all windows, and doors are locked. I treat your home as its mine when I'm leaving so you never have to worry about your home being secured.
“Very dependable even with a last minute scheduling due to a sudden illness for me. She had great empathy for me, the Mom. Checked in every appointment, along with pictures. A very good person with animals such as my Doberman. The events didn’t allow for an initial Meet-n-Greet with my pet. Yet she was completely accepted by my pet, due to her calm nature. I’ll re-book with Rebecca anytime. She cares and went to the extra mile. !!! I’d give more stars if I could!!”

I am highly attentive to routines, behavior cues, and individual temperaments, allowing me to create a calm, safe, and consistent environment for each dog in my care. My dog-sitting skills extend beyond basic supervision to include proper exercise, reinforcement of positive behavior, and close observation to ensure overall well-being.

Through attentive care, clear communication, and respect for both the pet and the owner’s expectations, I strive to create a secure, trusting, and welcoming home where pets feel comfortable and well cared for
“Highly recommend! Upon reading the report card from Tonie, a comment was made from another dog owner, "Wow, you got a good rover." I was so nervous leaving my dogs, especially my ailing senior. When my normal dogsitter cancelled last minute, I was very hesitant having a stranger watch my dogs. Tonie did a great job. I actually prefer her over my other sitters.”
