Whooooo Let The Dogs Out? (Me)

Pet care experience

I have helped my family care for our dog since we adopted her when I was nine years old. She is still healthy and going strong. Owning a dog at every stage of life has provided me well-rounded experience. I also have taken care of neighbors’ dogs while their families are out of town. Might I also mention that my girlfriend’s dog loves the walks I take her on so much that she always leads me to her leash when I see her. Dogs have been involved in my life almost every day since I was born.

I love Thomas… he is amazing! He has been absolutely wonderful with two of my dogs and has proven to be extremely reliable and responsible. In the past, I never really liked to leave my pets while traveling for work so I would only enlist the help of other family members to walk or feed them when needed. Let me tell you that entrusting my pups to Thomas actually feels like I’m still doing that! One of my older dogs (now deceased) was nervous around strangers but she warmed right up to Thomas and he helped care for her many times until she passed away. When I got a new English Lab puppy three years ago, I knew that Thomas would be the perfect person to stay with her while we went out of town during the summer that he was home from college. Since then, he has cared for her many times… usually to feed and walk her when I’m at my son’s baseball tournaments for the entire day, but he has also stayed in our home with her when we are out of town. Rookie is always so excited to see Thomas - he spends a good deal of time just playing with her and always texts me photos of her having fun. He even brings her treats and fun presents for Christmas! 😊 Rookie - and I - are both so happy that Thomas is back in Atlanta for grad school so she can hang out with him even more now!

Thomas is the perfect dog walker. He is always on time and takes my dog for the exact length I request. My dog absolutely adores him and runs to the door immediately to go on a walk with him.

Safety, trust & environment

I will take your dog on a walk through the neighborhood to make sure they get plenty of sniffs and exercise for the day. If your dog just needs a visit for a potty break and a meal, I will take them out in whichever way they prefer. The water bowl will always be full when I leave and your dog will receive a ton of pets and play time while I stop by.

Information Thomas W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know how your dog behaves around other dogs we may encounter on a walk. If there are any special items or commands that motivate your dog or will get their attention, that would be helpful as well.

A typical day

I love to see a dog running around and happily enjoying themselves outside. I will play fetch with them after they’ve gone potty. I also have fun running with them in a playful manner as they chase me and juke me out. For walks, I like to take dogs in wooded areas with trails especially. If that is not available nearby, going to big parks gets them just as excited. The more trees around, the better!
