Thomas came through for us in a pinch! He was very accommodating! Asked very good questions about her to make sure it would be a good fit. He was very responsive when I asked for updates! He sent pictures almost daily! I can tell he took very good care of our Bailey girl! Thanks Thomas!!

Tom took care of our furbaby Daxton for almost a whole week on super short notice. He was very thorough with questions and updates throughout Dax’s stay with him. It was nice having a peace of mind while away knowing that our baby is well taken care of. Thank you, Tom!

Tom and I grew up together back in New Jersey, and he was always someone I could rely on to watch my pets during my vacations. I have 2 cats and a hamster. He always made sure their litter boxes were clean, and made sure all my animals were well fed. I sometimes had him send me pictures and videos of what was going on, and he never had a problem doing it. There aren't too many people I trust with my pets, but Tom is definitely one of the few! It's nice to know that Tom is not only reliable, but he actually cares about these animals too!

Thomas has done a great job watching my dogs in the past. He usually watches my dogs in my house, but sometimes I need him to keep them at his place for a couple nights. I have a German Shepherd and a Corgi. He treated them so well, making sure they could play outside, get their treats, and he made sure to love on them! I can't say enough good things about how much help Thomas has been.

Schedule

I work about 10 hours a day now and have two teenagers that help out when I need them to. I can now watch small to medium-sized dogs as long as they can be crated during the day. On most weekends they will not need to be crated. I also watch cats.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a nice apartment complex where I can take dogs for walks, and I am 3 minutes from the nearest park. There are pools that are fenced in, and it is a very quiet and clean complex with families.

A typical day

I will do whatever the pet owners ask me to do. For walking, I can walk dogs around my complex and take them to a park that is 3 minutes from my apartment. I will use the dog owner's toys and make sure to keep dogs active who need it.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Thomas can host up to 3 pets per night
I need to know that dogs, especially larger ones, are good with being around teenagers. I have two teenagers who also love animals, and I want to make sure the dogs will be ok with teens. Any special instructions on keeping them active will be very helpful!
