About Thomas D.
Communication
Safety, trust & environment
I’ve helped care for cats with missing legs, special respiratory needs, and even those with anxiety. Every cat is unique, and I’m more than happy to tailor my care to meet their individual needs, ensuring their happiness and well-being.
Information Thomas D. would like to know about your pet
It’s important to know if a pet has any special needs, medical conditions, or behavioral tendencies that I should be aware of. Understanding their regular routines, feeding schedules, and any specific exercise or dietary restrictions is key to providing the best care. Additionally, knowing how the pet reacts to new people, other animals, or certain situations can help me ensure they feel comfortable and safe at all times.
A typical day
I enjoy engaging cats with interactive toys like feather wands, laser pointers, and puzzle toys that challenge their hunting instincts. I also love setting up cozy spots for lounging and making sure they have plenty of quiet time if that’s what they prefer. For cats that prefer a more relaxed vibe, I’m more than happy to curl up and watch their favorite TV show with them or even read them a bedtime story. Whatever keeps them happy and purring! Whether they like to play or just relax, I’ll tailor activities to fit their individual personalities and energy levels.

Cats have always been a part of my life. I grew up with five cats, two of whom had special needs. Now, my wife and I share our home with a big, fluffy cat named Obi Paw Kenobi. From raising kittens to caring for senior cats up to 23 years old, I have extensive experience with feline companions.
Reviews


Tom was great with the cats!

Thomas is the best! Very flexible and reliable, and sends the best photos of my cat.

We have been using Thomas anytime we need a pet sitter for our cat - he is always reliable, highly communicative and we always look forward to seeing his updates each day while we are away! Would highly recommend booking with Thomas!! 🐈⬛

Thomas was so kind with my young, playful, silly cat! Such peace of mind while travelling.
