Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced animal background
I have worked for multiple zoos across the UK including Paignton Zoo, ZSL Whipsnade Zoo, Noah’s Ark Zoo Farm, and for the best part of my career 10 years specialising in the care of elephants. I grew up with English Springer Spaniels as my family dogs regularly taking them on walks to the beach or Dartmoor and around twelve months ago rescued a cat all the way from Dubai. I have achieved full qualifications in animal care and animal management through my studies also completed several training courses.

Safety, trust & environment
I am a highly reliable genuine person who you can trust with your beloved pets whilst providing a professional friendly service.

Ratings and reviews
Tom walked Henry at very short notice and gave Henry a lovely walk including stream time which was vital in the hot weather! Tom was very communicative throughout and provided some great photos!
Tom responded promptly to an urgent request. He attended to meet Shelby and I the next day to go over what was needed and for us all to enjoy the benefits of an introduction as we hadn't met before. Throughout the multi-day booking I was given regular updates. On return Shelby appeared fit, well and her usual self so I would not hesitate to recommend Tom or use him again.
Tom is a genuine, hard-working and caring man, with a wealth of experience caring for a variety of animals. He always puts the animal first and has a passion for animal welfare. Tom is a pleasure to be around and your pets will have a brilliant time with Tom.

Schedule
I have a very flexible job that enables me to work from home therefore I have plenty of free time to go on walks and focus on pet sitting. We live in Kingsteignton with a fully secure garden so outdoor access can always be provided and have plenty of nice walks on our doorstep perfect for dogs. We have no children and Janice the cat is our only pet however can easily be separated into her own area of the house. If you’re interested in my services or have any questions, feel free to message me for further details and I will be happy to help. I look forward to meeting you and your loyal companions! 🐾
