Pet care experience

Soothing the 4 legged soul 🐈🐱😻

I am your friendly-neighborhood cat guy 🐱 😻 who has watched countless friends feline family members, given advice on adopting new kitties, as well as helping solve some behavioral issues. From shy kitties to grumpy-guses to action-jacksons I have sat them all. While performing these tasks I have also gained experience giving oral medications, asthma treatments and rescuing the odd cat from a tree! My primary goal as a cat sitter is to ensure that your furry family member(s) feels calm and safe while you are away.

I am the ultimate cat whisperer and will do whatever I can to keep them happily occupied and loved while their family is away. This includes spending time playing with them and their favorite toys. I have even had cat clients who enjoyed watching animal planet!

Charles went above and beyond for us this past week when caring for our two indoor outdoor five year old cats. We had just moved to a different house on the road in front of the house our cats had grown up in. We thought they were adjusted so we took out trip. I put “ find my “ AirTags in them fortunately. But they were still confused and Charles wired patiently for them, went walking to find them at the other house , and even came very early in the morning. By the time we were ready to come home Charles had reassured them both that w writhing was ok. Charles is a familiar face and calming voice that they trust. Thank you Charles. I totally recommend Charles for anyone who needs a someone to take care of your kitties!

Charles has been a star and a lifesaver. I took a rather sudden trip to see my sister in Dallas and Charles fit us into his schedule. He was kind enough to agree to an extension (another five days) at the end of our original contract when my sister had to be readmitted to the hospital. Jeepers absolutely ADORES Charles and will probably be disappointed seeing me come in the door rather than his favorite sitter! Charles really has been a blessing to me and my family in a very difficult time. I hope he'll come back again when things are a bit less fraught and I can travel for actual pleasure.

Everything was great. Charles visited and my cat seemed a lot less stressed when I got back from my trip.

I’d love to meet you and your pet family! Chatting with you in person about what makes your pets special and unique and giving them a chance to check me out as a new friend is so important to me. I also want to make sure you have the chance to clarify care expectations and I have a chance to answer all your questions. I always ask for a full consultation ahead of time for any furry friend. This includes reviewing your cat's: 1) food and medical needs 2) behavior history 3) quirks 4) veterinarian 5) favorite games/activities 6) any of your concerns
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
