Man’s best friends’ best friend!

Hello! We just moved to our land here in San Marcos so there’s plenty of space for your puppers! We have a fenced yard and grass is maintained. My dogs love making friends and I’m always excited to have another pup hanging out with us! I know they miss their friends in Houston. I’ve had pets my whole life, and they mean the world to me. I’m a huge animal person and I couldn’t imagine life without my dogs. I’m willing to abide by any schedule that is best for you, and can provide transportation if needed. I feed my dogs once in the morning, a snack mid day, and fed again in the evening. Our dogs love lounging around on our couches and yours is welcome to join! I’m very lenient with my dogs and I make sure they are always comfortable. I look forward to meeting you and your fur buddies!

As always, Thomas and his family are great! First time watching our new puppy who also had a broken leg and everything went super smoothly. Couldn’t trust Thomas more and it’s great to have that relationship with him and not have to worry about our dogs during vacation!

If you’re looking for a place where your pup can run and get loved on this is your place! I am extremely pleased with the care and communication we had for our stay here. Would strongly recommend and will definitely use again and again

Thomas is super friendly. My dog loved him and had a great time zooming around his huge backyard. Thomas sent pics during Ollie's stay which was really nice! Highly recommend.

This was our 4th time having Thomas watch our dog. It is hard to find someone you trust to watch your pet, especially for an extended period of time but we are very fortunate to have found Thomas. Our Knut is in amazing hands with him and I never have to worry or stress. Knut always comes back healthy and happy. Thomas is definitely our forever dog sitter!

Thomas and his family were awesome! I was a little concerned because Gracie can be a little bit aggressive towards people but Thomas had her eating out of his hand within minutes. By the time we traveled 15 minutes to our family‘s house that we were visiting in Texas he had already sent a picture with Gracie sitting on his lap. When we went to pick Gracie up, Thomas and his girlfriend were out there just loving on her! She really liked them! I highly recommend Thomas and his family to sit with any pet!

Thomas is unbelievably great! This is the second time he’s had our pup Knút and I can’t say enough great things about him. He’s very responsive whenever we have questions and always sends update pictures throughout the day. It’s really reassuring to know he’s not just in good hands but in All State hands as far as I’m concerned. Thank you and thank you again for making this a wonderful experience and I can’t wait to let our pup come for another visit.
