As a rule of thumb, I do not trust anyone to pet sit or walk my dog Marble because he is my child and we have attachment issues. However, I needed to go out of town for the week and I couldn't take Marble with me. Thomas offered to pet sit Marble because he loves animals and animals love him. Thomas had also just finished veterinary technician school so this helped me feel more comfortable leaving Marble with him. The whole time I was away, Thomas provided me with updates including pictures of Marble on walks around the neighborhood. He provided such safe and loving care for Marble that when I returned, Marble was very attached to Thomas and didn't want to leave. If you are looking for someone to walk your dog or pet sit, Thomas is your guy.
