Safety, trust & environment

I have 2 cats to keep your pet company during their stay with me, and I livw with my family so it’s more than just one person here to make sure your pets are safe and happy

Information Jim C. would like to know about your pet

Only need to know what if any dietary restrictions/medications your pet may require, along with how they typically get along with other animals, I do have 3 myself, 2 cats/1dog and want to make sure your pet has a great time with us

A typical day

To get the day started between 8-9am we go on a short walk around the block, when we return everyone gets breakfast. Afterwards we play for a little bit, then everyone usually relaxes while I take care of basic chores around the house. Second time outside is usually between 1-2pm, then nap time. If time permits in late afternoon we might walk over to the dog park to say hi and play with all the other dogs in the area. Afterwards is dinner, little more play/cuddle time. One last bathroom break around 9pm before we start winding down for bed.

Lifelong pet lover at your service!

Pet care experience

I’ve had pets ever since I was 9 years old, both cats and dogs, and I’ve always taken pride in making sure that my fur babies are taken care of just as well, if not better, as anyone in my family 😁

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.
