Safety, trust & environment

I treat my clients' homes and animals with the utmost respect and care. My goal when it comes to house-sitting is to ensure the client returns to the home they left. I'll gladly take care of any pet accidents that may happen while you're away. I'm happy to travel to your home and provide your pets with whatever their needs may be, be it walks, playtime, feeding, or anything else they need. I am absolutely respectful of my clients' pets' personalities as well, I'll never force your animal into a situation that would make them uncomfortable.

Information Thomas B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know ahead of time of any behavioral issues or special needs, I promise to be as accommodating as possible for whatever your pets require.

A typical day

I'm completely fine with sticking to whatever routines your pets are used to, or going on new adventures! For extended visits, if your dogs really love the outdoors I'd be happy to take them to any of the nearby parks. If your pets need to get out a lot of energy I'd be glad to play with them as much as they need.

Pet care experience

I have house sat for friends and family and taken care of their pets at least several times a year since I was a teenager, both long and short term. I have walked the most energetic of dogs and have spent time with the timidest of cats. I'm positive that I can provide your pets with the highest quality of care.

Thomas is always willing to help out, even last minute. He sends great photos of our dog Bernie and I can tell he cares about the animals he helps. Always on time and a great pet caregiver!

Thomas was an amazing dog sitter. He really took the time to get to know our dogs before the sit itself, he wasn’t bothered by their hyper personalities and was very patient even when they tried to jump on him. I definitely would recommend him to anyone wanting someone to truly care for their dogs and treat them like one of his own. I’ve had bad experiences myself with previous sitters only wanting to get paid for sitting on their phone, he listened intently to every word we said about our dogs’ needs and he played with them enough to where they are now worn out at the end of the night. 10/10. Thank you, Thomas.
