Pet care experience

Can I pet your dog??

I have loved dogs my whole life but have never had one of my own. Because of this, I’ve become the go-to guy for all my friends’ dogsitting needs. I spent 2020 as a professional dog walker in Boston and fine tuned my skills at handling multiple dogs at a time. I have picked up training skills and also enjoy taking photos of my furry friends! Additionally, I have cared for dogs of all shapes and sizes. Every dog is different in how much attention or exercise they need and I’m always ready to adapt to best take care of them. I love getting to know dogs and their unique personalities and I hope I can get to know yours too! While I may be a dog person, I love all animals and have met my share of cool cats so please consider me to care for all kinds of fur babies.

Safety, trust & environment

I know every pet has specific needs and I am always looking to meet those so they can live their best lives. I’m capable of handling dogs with high energy levels or chill out with kitties that just want to snooze. I’m always vigilant as well since I know our pals can sometimes be sneaky.

Dog Walking • Mar 16, 2026

Tom is awesome! He was very patient and very kind to my "slow to warm up" beast. Tom was very good at communicating with me and came to walk my dog very consistently! I appreciated Tom's service and once I am able, I will be hiring him again. Thanks again, Tom!

Tom worked for me for a year in our dog hiking and sitting business. He was an excellent team member and took wonderful care of the dogs. All our staff goes through dog behavior training as well as pet cpr and first aid so Tom is well equipped to handle dogs of all sizes and personalities. Tom cared for many dogs overnight while working with us and always did an excellent job. He is a wonderful, caring guy who will love your pup like his own and make sure they have an excellent stay. Personable, professional and knowledgeable, you really can't ask for a better sitter!

I’m willing to get to know all types of pets and no one knows them better than their parents. So any and all tips or serious specifications are welcome so that I can treat your loved ones with the care they deserve.
