Thomas did a great job watching Rocky. We could enjoy traveling without worrying about our dog. We got picture updates every day. Rocky was also walked every day and got to stay in a home environment. Rocky came home clean and calm. It was a great boarding experience.

Excellent care, intuitive handling of the dogs. I am very pleased with the service Tommy offers! If I need to board the dogs again, I will certainly utilize his service. Thank you, Tommy!

My dog, Gizmo, couldn't be happier with the loving and safe care he recieved from Thomas. His property is peaceful, spacious, and perfect for dogs to relax, play, and enjoy the outdoors. If you're looking for a trustworthy dog sitter with a wonderful home in the country, I highly recommend him!

Thomas recently kept our golden retriever, Lola, for a week while we were on vacation, and I would highly recommend him for boarding. My dog loved him, and had a great time there! He answered any questions I had, and kept us updated/sent pictures on how she was doing. She was treated like a member of their family which is what we wanted. I wouldn't hesitate to use him in the future.
