Pet care is part of my everyday life. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give pets consistent attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. They’re never left alone for long, and I genuinely enjoy having them around—it fits perfectly into my routine

Safety and trust are my top priorities. In my home, pets have a secure, fenced yard to play in and are always supervised. I keep a clean, calm environment with plenty of love and attention. I follow each pet’s routine closely—whether it’s feeding, meds, or crate time—to make sure they feel safe and cared for like they’re in their own home

Information Thomas C. would like to know about your pet

It’s helpful to know your pet’s temperament, routines, favorite toys, and any special needs or quirks. I also like to know how they do with other dogs, if they’re crate-trained, and any medical or dietary needs. The more I know, the better I can make them feel at home

A typical day

We’ll play fetch, explore the yard, work on simple training cues (if you’d like), and sneak in belly rubs and treats. I love keeping dogs mentally stimulated and physically active—plus, plenty of time to chill and nap in a comfy spot.

Pet care experience

I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. I’m home often, have a flexible schedule, and a big fenced yard perfect for playtime. I treat every dog like family—whether they need exercise, cuddles, or just a calm, safe space to relax

We had a fantastic experience with Thomas as our first-time dog sitter! My wife and I were able to take a much-needed vacation to Las Vegas for four-nights knowing our dog, Miley, was in great hands. Thomas kept in just the right amount of communication—sending occasional photos and short videos that really put us at ease. He even went above and beyond by buying Miley a small toy, which was such a thoughtful touch. The meet-and-greet went smoothly, and both drop-off and pick-up were easy and pleasant. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking with Thomas again. Highly recommend!

Thomas was very responsive and helped us out on short notice. He sent photos and provided updates. We missed Rocco and Thomas was sure to let us know how things were going. I would have him watch our dog in the future.

Thomas took great care of my cat while we were away. His home quickly became his new home away from home. He also provided updates with photos which I always appreciate.
