TLDR : Answer Summary
A travel agent cannot represent you for obtaining a non-visa 30-day extension; however, a visa agent can assist. It's also recommended to take a friend or Thai acquaintance for support during the process, as they can help communicate your needs, especially if you have hearing difficulties.
This is good advice, even if you don't have hearing loss. I have taken Thai friends, who also speak English, with me the past two years to renew my retirement visa. If there is a sticking point, and there almost always is, a Thai speaker with you is indispensable.

Travel agent, no. Visa agent, yes.
