Dogs are better than people!!😀

Pet care experience

I’ve always had a dog since I could remember. I swear they are better than people most of the time. Very reliable and dependable with your loved one and treat them the same way I would expect my pup to be treated. Many family and friends have had me take care of their little loved ones prior to trying this service. I have lowered my rate due to a negative review, which was my first ever booking with a 5month old puppy, this is my first time using this site and I am trying to build a business here. Please give me a chance to watch your loved one.

Tom came in and saved the day. He took our dog last minute and treated him like family.

My dog sparkles boarded at Tom's house for 3 nights and we had a great experience. His home is comfortable, safe, and his yard had plenty of space for the dogs to run around. His dog was super friendly and seemed to be a great companion to mine. Got updates and nice pictures, tom was flexible and communicative the whole time.

***CAUTION*** Tom sent me very concerning text messages while I was away and I was worried about the treatment of my dog. When we picked her up she was very different and clearly not in a good way. Tom took in a 6mo old puppy knowing full well what that meant. He met her ahead of time and got her temperament and way too much information about her including her current potty schedule. I told him she peed a little when she got excited but she apparently regressed while at his home and he left me several threatening text messages. I even contacted friends to take her but nobody was available. He stated “no animal is worth my home.” This man should -not- be taking in other people’s pets (especially puppies) if he clearly can’t handle them in his house. Even after I told him she isn’t used to yelling and repeatedly gave him her full potty schedule, he continued to complain every day we were gone saying she wasn’t potty trained. Animals regress their first time away from home especially if being negatively treated. He even complained when she “whined a little at night.” She is a puppy and it was her first time away from home. I’m sorry but he clearly shouldn’t be taking in other people’s animals if he is sending threatening messages about them to the owner daily while they are gone.
