I prefer pugs over people.

Pet care experience

I've owned two dogs and a cat for the past 17 years. Unfortunately we're a pet free family at the moment so we're eager to fill the void while we take our time to find the right dog to add to our family. We do have a small child who will be at home some days and all nights/weekends, but she loves animals and plays very gently. Making sure you feel comfortable while you're away is something I strive for. I can guarantee a picture and status update at least daily so you can rest assured that your pet is in good hands and is living it up! Last thing to note is that I am active and plan on being active with your pet. If your dog likes/needs walks, I'll make sure they get out and about and have plenty of opportunity to burn off some energy.

Would book with Tim again!

I recently had the pleasure of leaving my Cockapoo, Charlie Bravo, in Tim’s care—and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the start, Tim was warm, professional, and clearly passionate about dogs. Charlie took to him right away, which immediately put me at ease. Tim kept me updated with sweet photos and messages throughout the stay, which made it so much easier to be away. It was clear that Charlie wasn’t just being watched—he was being genuinely cared for and loved. When I picked Charlie up, he was happy, relaxed, and had clearly had a great time. Tim truly went above and beyond, and I felt completely confident knowing Charlie was in such good hands. I highly recommend Tim to anyone looking for a responsible, kind, and attentive dog sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with him again!

Tim did such a wonderful job with our dog Rex. My husband and I were out of the country for a little over a week, and we would constantly get picture updates! They took him for walks, and you can tell he was having the best time!We would definitely use Tim again for our future vacations and trust him with Rex at any time!

I highly recommend Timothy (Tim) as a pet sitter! He recently cared for my two French Bulldogs, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the level of care and attention he gave to each of them. From daily walks to personalized care routines, he truly goes above and beyond to meet the unique needs of each pet. Whether it’s in-home pet visits or having your dog's stay overnight at his place, he creates a safe and welcoming environment. He’s incredibly trustworthy, easy to reach, and clearly has a deep love for animals. It’s such a relief knowing my dogs are in good hands when I’m away. I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of room to run and play. I've got a young daughter who may also be around during the day, and will be around in the evenings and on the weekends. We live in a nice walkable neighborhood and I like to get out and walk, so I'll make sure your pet(s) have plenty of exercise and attention.

Information Timothy L. would like to know about your pet

Open to all breeds, just let me know if your pup has anything particular that you want me to look out for, cater to, or just know. If you aren't comfortable with your dog around kids, just let me know and I'll arrange for either of those to be out of our space so that everyone feels comfortable.

A typical day

Our outdoor area is partially shaded and turf, so your pups can play and play without getting too hot or dirty. Just bring some toys and I'll make sure they get some of that energy out. If you want them coming home squeaky clean, just let me know and we can add on a wash and a brushing to make sure they're smelling right when you pick them up.
