Information Thomas D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has special dietary restrictions, allergies, or other concerns. If they have any problem behaviors (chewers, nervous peeing, high prey drive, etc), I'd like to know in advance so I can adequately prepare the space.

A typical day

I have a fenced in backyard where the dogs can play fetch, chase, tug, or just sun bathe! If the weather is poor, they can still be active inside but I tend to supplement it by providing stimulating training sessions, typically focusing on reinforcing existing commands.

Dogs as far as the eye can see!

Pet care experience

I've been taking care of family pets since I was young. I am passionate about forming lasting, reliable bonds with cats and dogs, with a focus on positive reinforcement and with regards to dogs, simple training that makes for a safe, harmonious companionship.

Tom is awesome. My dog had a minor medical issue and was in pain. Tom and his wife took Boo to a vet in the middle of the night to take care of him. Can't thank them enough for what they did! I highly recommend Tom to anyone who needs a sitter.

Tom has been great with our medium/large dog who can be high energy at times. He is super responsive in his communication and sends updates and photos. Would highly recommend.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
