Highlights
Pet care experience
20 years as owner/walker/dog-lover
I’ve had 2 dogs from puppy through adulthood over the last 20 years and have given thousands of walks. Charlie was a stubborn and happy Basset Hound, and Teddy was a big, lovable, and strong Great Pyrenees who unfortunately passed early last year. RIP 🧸. My wife Kiwa also has a lot of experience with walking dogs with various sizes, age, tendencies; including the strongest, heaviest and most unpredictably energetic. Having either of us available definitely adds to our last-minute availability. We are also able and willing to walk multiple of your dogs together with ease. We recently moved to Berkeley, and would truly enjoy putting our dog walking skills & passion to use with your pup.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
We don’t have space at our home for our own dog which is a primary motivation for helping others and spending time with local dogs on Rover! With two highly experienced and passionate dog-walkers, you can trust your fur-child will be in good hands…whenever you need!
Ratings and reviews
Great sitters! Punctual, easy and responsive communication. Would definitely recommend!
Thank you so much! :)
Tommy & Kiwa are great!
Thank you Thomas and Kiwa!! Stesi looked like she had so much fun with you :) Thank you for taking her on such a nice walk.
My dog is very wary of strangers. And after 3 short visits he was crawling into Thomas’ lap. Cannot recommend highly enough!!!
Tommy was absolutely wonderful with my Great Pyrenees! From the start, he was communicative, punctual, and clearly experienced with dogs. He took the time to understand my dog’s routine and personality, and I could tell that he genuinely cared. I received regular updates and photos that made me feel at ease while I was away. When I came home, my pet was happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I’d highly recommend Tommy to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter—you can tell he loves what he does!

Schedule
We both work from home and can provide same-day afternoon or evening service (following a meet and greet). Sometimes able to accommodate last-minute or 1-day advance morning requests during the week. Weekend is easy. Advanced notice is always appreciated and improves the odds that we’ll be able, but it’s not required.
