Tyson had a wonderful time with tom and his family. He well well cared for and well loved. We were happy they had a fenced in yard for him to run around. Tyson is high energy, but just as cuddly at the end of the day. We had never left him with a sitter before. He was a rescue and we were nervous about how he would do. Tom Is definitely a dog lover and truly took great care. he sent us pictures and videos to keep us informed. We will definitely use Tom again.

Tom was very helpful and easy to work with. He communicated well and provided updates throughout the stay. Elsa also had a great time during her stay with Tom and his pup. It was great working with Tom and we look forward to working with him in future.

I was so nervous to leave my pup for our wedding but I was instantly put at ease by Tom and his wife. Finn had the best time and was in no rush to get picked up. Thanks so much!

Tom gave our dog the best of care and she was very happy with him. We loved receiving the photos of our dog chilling next to Tom's older dog. We will definitely book with Tom again.
