Highlights
Pet care experience
I like big dogs and I cannot lie
I have looked after many dogs of various shapes and sizes throughout my life, and am currently looking for pups to care for on a short term basis after losing my beloved Bernese Mountain Dog, Freya, last year. I regularly volunteer and foster for local dog shelters.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I live with my partner in a large house in a quiet part of town - we have no children and no pets. We have a large, fully fenced back yard and live 1 block away from a large park. We have air conditioning throughout the house and an access gate on the stairs to control pet access to upper floor (for when stairs are a mobility issue). There are water bowls and comfy dog beds on the upstairs and downstairs levels and we also have a home security camera system to keep an eye on pets while we are out of the home.
Ratings and reviews

Tom and his partner are amazing, responsive, and caring. My dog was so excited to see them again, and she left their home in such a great mood. They always listen to my dog’s specific needs (meds, behavior) and take great intentional care of her. Would highly recommend!
Tom & Louise did a great job watching Waffles. He loved his stay with them. He enjoyed daily walks meeting other Doodles & people. Tom provided daily updates & pictures & responded to all questions. We felt very comfortable leaving Waffles in their care & look forward to boarding Waffles with them again.
Tom and his wife were very communicative and sent lots of photos showing a very happy doggo! I will definitely use Tom again!
We had a wonderful experience with Tom and his partner! From the start, we felt completely comfortable leaving our dog, Aspen, in their care. They were warm, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs. Aspen had a great time—he came home happy and well cared for. We really appreciated the updates and photos while we were away, which gave us peace of mind. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
Tom was great! Very responsive. Hank had a great stay, we would definitely have him stay with them again!
