Pet care experience
Priory Paws
Hey, thanks for looking at my profile! I'm available for dog walking and drop-in visits most week days and weekends around Tynemouth/Cullercoats/N Shields and Whitley Bay. I’m a lifelong dog owner and have nearly 10 years of experience in handling dogs of all shapes and sizes via Rover. Due to a change in circumstances I am no longer dog sitting in my own home, although this may be possible for previous or long term clients.

I’m experienced in handling dogs of all shapes, sizes, temperaments and requirements. I’m happy to arrange initial meet ups to discuss any preferences for your pets.
Ratings and reviews
I know I’ve reviewed Tom before but I’m so impressed with how wonderful he’s been recently in being able to walk Benji at short notice, help out with a drop in when I was unexpectedly in hospital, and just generally being a great guy!! I know Tom comes a bit out of his area to walk Benji and I so appreciate his help. He’s one of Benji’s favourite people - I don’t think you can get a better recommendation!
Tom has been an absolute lifesaver over the past couple of years! I have some health issues at the moment and every so often find myself unable to get out with Benji, my 3 yr old pup. This week I’d cracked a rib and really couldn’t imagine the pain from trying to walk him but yet again Tom rescued me at short notice with a smile and willingness to help out, as he’s done repeatedly in that time! Benji absolutely adores going out with him and I always get good feedback on all the usuals, and one or more lovely photo/s! Brilliant and very much appreciated!
Just one more review for Tom! I’ve used Tom quite a few times over recent months and before that too, and I just wanted to reiterate how much my pup loves him and really loves being walked by him! Tom has gone above and beyond to help out during my recent ill health and has really stepped up at short notice on multiple occasions. It’s so reassuring to know that Benji is so happy and well-walked when I’m unwell. Thanks again Tom!! 😁
Tom stepped in at short notice and helped me hugely - and my Havanese Benji was a very happy pup! Tom is professional and reliable and I would definitely recommend him 😄
Bon always likes his walks with Tom exploring the cemetery. Tom has been helping with training Bon to not pull on the lead which is a great help.
Tom responded really quickly when I got stuck unable to walk my pup and came round to walk him at really short notice. Benji loved him & happily went off with him and came back in a great mood, though kept trying to look out of the window after he’d gone to see where he was!! Tom also left great detailed info about the walk (v useful!) and I would have no hesitation in using him again. Thank you Tom!
