I LOVE to play with dogs!

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life of varying sizes, and so has my fiancé. I know how to act with dogs, care for them, play with them, excercise them, and make sure they are loved. I am about to graduate from dental school in May 2018, so I like to brush my golden retriever’s teeth also! My fiancé and I have a 1 year old golden retriever pup. He is a smart and friendly dog with lots of energy. Therefore, I know how to tire a dog out, and give it the attention it needs. Not to sound conceited, but dogs love me, and I think it’s because they can sense that I love them right back. Dogs are the best, hands down!

Didn't follow instructions - put harness on incorrectly and didn't lock door when he left, despite specific instructions requesting he do so.

Tom was great with Coco! We will definitely book him again when we need a walker.

Tom is a very fun loving and kind gentleman. He loves dogs and is extremely trustworthy. He will care for and love your dog like it was his own. He is dependable and will do his best to ensure not only has a fun time but is safe as well!

Information Tom N. would like to know about your pet

In general, it would be nice to know if they have any temperament issues. Also, any special diets or medical conditions I need to be aware of, and if they like other dogs as I have a golden retriever.

A typical day

There are open fields and parks near us in the Old Town area. We would take walks there and tire them out. My fiancé and I have a 1 year old golden retriever named Otto, so they would play a lot as well. He gets along with everybody!
