Loving dog companion

Pet care experience

On the weekends I love to take my girlfriend’s family’s dogs out for early morning runs and care for them when they are out of town (Black Lab mix and Jack Russell mix). I also care for my sisters 3 dogs when she is out of town (Great Dane, German Shepherd, German Short-haired Pointer I help groom them, (brush, brush teeth, and bathe) and take them for walks, runs, and most importantly adventures around the NOVA and DC area. Looking forward to meeting your fuzzy friend!

Thomas was a great sitter for Bella...he sent lots of pics and videos of our poochie and made us feel comfortable with us leaving her behind on our trip. I would definitely use him again!

Our young pup was so well cared for with Thomas and his partner Lili! They were so understanding, communicative, and compassionate! As this was only the second time we were away from Yoshi, we were nervous, but Thomas was so attentive and sent text updates and pictures every day so we always knew how Yoshi was doing. They were so patient and gave Yoshi the time he needed to get comfortable in their space. Yoshi got to go to the dog park, make new friends and got lots of cuddle while we were away. We can tell Yoshi had a wonderful time and are so grateful to have reliable and trusting people to watch over our sweet lil guy.

I live in an apartment with my girlfriend who also adores dogs, but with no pets currently. We are on Rover to try and fill the dog shaped holes in our hearts. We have plenty of dog parks around the area for walks, and parks for poops and pees. Most of all, we love giving dogs plenty of attention and adventuring the area!

Information Thomas D. would like to know about your pet

Helpful to know how to access your unit/house. It would be great to know when your dog likes to eat, if they have any special needs or allergies, if they don’t like any certain things or respond negatively to anything.

A typical day

We’ll go exploring and visit some of the many parks in the area and drive into the city to find new sniffs to smell and dog friends. Highlands park is great for a shady walk to chase squirrels, and Met park is great to see new dog friends and sniff the numerous flower varieties. After that we’ll give your dog plenty of pets and belly rubs now that they’re all tuckered out.
