I always have a leash, poo baggie, and treats handy. Never do I take a dog off lead except in the dog park. I always make an effort to befriend any dog that I am caring for! In my home: We have a dog door (fits smaller medium sized dogs) that goes out to a fenced area.

Information Tom E. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has a bad hip/back/anything. If your dog needs medicine it would be helpful if you let me know how you administer it (is there a cheese in your fridge that I should stick it in?)

A typical day

I can take your dog to the dog park in Brookdale or for a trot around Mills or a nearby forest. Or we could play w/ dog toys in the house.

Pet care experience

I have lived with dogs for as long as I can remember. I also have plenty of experience caring for other people's dogs. I have the experience necessary to keep your dog safe and to make sure your dog has fun according to their personality!

Tom looked after 5 dogs of all different sizes, breeds, ages and temperments in my home for a long weekend. The dogs adored him and he sent lots of photos of them all playing in the yard. He is completely trustworthy, professional and reliable, and I’m sure your animals will be very well looked after in his capable hands!
