Safety, trust & environment

Any instructions or recommendations for your pets welfare, care and enrichment will be followed to the letter. I have a completely enclosed yard but no green space, so will look to exercise/ toilet dogs elsewhere anyway, always on a lead or harness. Feeding requirements and dietary restrictions will be discussed prior to any care, and this will be adhered to per your request.

Information Tom B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there are any special needs, dietary, or temperament requirements ahead of time. If it helps to keep walks to a minimum time due to mobility issues for example, or taking evening walks in quiet spaces to avoid too many other dogs, I'm happy to make accomodations.

A typical day

I love to walk, just as dogs do! We'll find some woodland or a park, or head somewhere along the canal. Playtime is just as important, we'll play some games or do some enrichment exercises, and arguably most important of all, give them a big fuss at all times!

Tom is clearly an animal lover and my pets adored him. I’d definitely use Tom again and I’m very comfortable recommending him to others . Thank you very much. C

Tom is brilliant! We came home to such a happy cat, she was very well looked after. Thank you so much for sending photos and texting updates - it was great to see you hanging out together. We would love to have you look after her again if you’re free and Kitty would love it too! So friendly and accommodating as well, thanks again Tom ?

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
