Pet care experience

Barking up the right tree. :)

I began taking care of animals when I was in middle school. I would feed and walk our neighbor's dogs while they were away. My family has always had dogs and cats that I enjoyed helping to take care of. I had two chihuahuas that have since crossed the rainbow bridge, named Kaycee and Mia, that were my best friends. I learned a lot about pets and about life from being their fur dad. I have experience boarding everything from small breeds, up to very large breeds. I truly enjoy taking care of the dogs that our clients trust me with and am always a little sad when they go back home.

Thomas and Mandy were great! Bucky seemed happy to have spent the weekend with them. We got pictures during his stay and updates throughout.

Thomas has become our new “go to” pet sitter. Anytime he watches our pets (including 2 high energy dogs) I can be confident that I will come home to happy, well cared for, and safe pets. Thomas does a great job at sharing enough updates to keep us at ease but also not interrupt our vacation. We highly recommend Thomas!

Thomas is top notch and has a great place for your pet. I think my dog maverick loved the comfy couch and the belly rubs he got. Would recommend to anyone . They took great care of my dog and was flexible on drop off and pickup time

Tom came over for a meet-and-greet with my dog and cat for a last-minute house and pet sit. He asked all the right questions, and his love of animals was apparent. He sent some pictures and texted updates. He even managed to walk my dog, who can sometimes not cooperate. I would not hesitate to have Tom care for my house and pets again.

When your pets are considered your flesh and blood, you want someone who will treat them the same way you do. Tommy has always been the most trust worthy person I know caring for my furry children. He lavishes them with the same kind of love I give them. He is extremely dependable, making sure any special needs are taken care of. I can always count on him to deliver the best care.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced back yard where dogs like to go to run around and play while they are here. I have 1 large crate here. My clients are also welcome to bring crates, toys, beds, etc. If you have a typed-up list of preferred feeding times, medication times, or anything else you want me to know, that’d be extra helpful as a reference.

A typical day

I have a huge back yard where dogs can go to get their zoomies out. I also live in an extremely safe neighborhood to go for a walk. I live very close to Wade Park and can go for walks there too.

If you don’t want your pets to be walked or do not want them around other dogs, that is 100% fine. Just let me know. I am very accommodating to you and your pet’s needs. If your pet has any special needs just let me know. :)
