Pet care experience

Welcome To The Doghouse!

I can’t remember a time in my life I haven’t had at least 4 or 5 dogs around me. My family calls me a dog whisperer. Me and dogs just.. understand each other… I think they read the “grandparent” energy I have for them! Every dog loves me because I take care of them and listen to them. I have a beautiful 5 acres and the house for them to stay in and also a 1,200 square foot air conditioned clean garage for them to play in as well as a good yard and a perfect place to walk them if anyone likes their dogs to have extra walks. I’d love to take care of your babies for any reason! I’m pretty flexible so just let me know what you have in mind.

Boarding • Jul 13, 2026

Thomas was so great with our girl Ronnie! He kept in touch the entire time, sent tons of videos and pictures. Each one showed how much fun she was having and how amazing she was being treated! We were so grateful we found Thomas and we were able to fully enjoy our trip especially knowing our girl was being so well cared for. Ronnie was even sad to leave lol can’t recommend him enough! and we will forsure be using him for boarding here on out!

Thomas was wonderful. I was worried about my dog who can be reactive at times, but Thomas reassured me. He sent me updates within just a few hours of having dropped Nash off, and by the time my husband picked him up a couple days later, he was happily hanging with Thomas' other boarders without any issues! We have definitely found our new go-to boarder in the area!

Buddy had a wonderful time playing with new friends, getting lots of pets from Thomas, a true dog lover, and has been pouting since we left. I loved receiving the pictures and videos too. Thank you!

Wonderful as always! We won’t send our fur baby anywhere else as long as Thomas is available. Mr. Snicklefritz always comes home in a great mood. Id say he loves all he watches like his own, if I had to guess. No one would regret sending their babies to his house for a stay.

Best dog sitter ever. Our dogs warmed up to him right away. Our border collie has separation anxiety and can be difficult sometimes. Tom is like a dog whisperer. We will definitely choose Tom again .

First time leaving puppy with anyone. Thomas was very reassuring and communicative during Jael’s first visit to doggy daycare. Already rebooked!

Safety, trust & environment

I care for all animals as if they were my own babies. Animals have this pure energy that comes from them and we just understand each other. I love playing with and being around the animals and they love to be around me the same way. I make sure to be careful about leaving dogs unattended I always assure safety first. But a close second to safety is freedom. They love feeling free. And I offer them that safely.

A typical day

The activities we do will completely depend on the dog and the owner. Some people don’t like their dogs getting too much exercise or getting too hot. Some people don’t want their dog on the couch. Some people don’t care. On the other hand some dogs like the couch some just want to lounge with you some want space some want to play outside. Some like fetch some want to wrestle with you 😂. It’s all completely dependent on the dog and the person but we will enjoy ourselves!

It’d be nice to know if they are generally good around other dogs but I’m pretty good at reading dogs quickly and introducing them to others. Let me know detailed instructions on anything you WANT or else I may not do it how you intended. I will follow any owner instructions though!
