Pet care experience

Midtown/Edgewater Pet Lover

Jimmy Cat Daddy is built on a true love for animals, with a special focus on cats. As a proud cat dad myself, I understand how unique and special each cat’s personality can be. After two years on Rover, I’ve truly enjoyed helping fellow cat parents care for their babies while they’re away. My goal is to make every visit calm, attentive, and full of the same love and patience I give my own cats.

Jimmy is such a great cat sitter!! He left detailed reports every day and went above and beyond to earn my cats’ trust (even my shy kitty).

Jimmy did a great job of taking care of my cat Oliver. His updates were thorough and sent many pictures. I could tell Oliver was doing well when I arrived home.

Jimmy was an excellent sitter! He went above and beyond to make sure my place was neat and tidy for my arrival home. He was communicative and flexible, and really loved on my babies which made me be able to enjoy my time away and not stress one bit. My cats and I are so grateful for his care! Thank you Jimmy!

Jimmy was great with our cat during our short weekend trip. He was very attentive, made sure he ate well, gave him his favorite Churu treats, and took the time to play and spend some quality time with him. We came back to a happy cat 🐈 and a clean home he even vacuumed before leaving! 🫶 We really appreciated how thoughtful and caring he was, and we would definitely trust Jimmy with our cat again 🧡🧡🧡

This was my first time using the Rover app on such short notice. And sometimes apps like these can be hit or miss, but Jimmy helped and provided amazing services! He kept me up to date, took pictures, and went above and beyond. Definitely will continue to use him going forward. Great introduction to the app as well!

Schedule

My schedule is flexible, though I do appreciate advance notice when possible. If I’m ever unavailable, I work closely with a small circle of trusted and reliable cat sitters in the area. I love recommending them to my clients—they’re part of what I like to call the Cat Daddy & Fam, the “aunts and uncles” who help make sure your cat is always in great hands.

Safety, trust & environment

Honesty and trust are at the heart of everything I do. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires a lot of trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. When I care for your pets, I treat your home with the same respect as if it were my own. I’m always mindful, non-judgmental, and make sure to leave your home the same—or even better—than how you left it. Your pet’s comfort and your peace of mind are always my priority.

Pets

A typical day

Every cat is different, so I always adjust my visits to their personality. For shy cats, I’m patient and use a calm approach (and sometimes treats) to help them feel comfortable coming out. During each visit, I handle feeding (kibble, wet food, or automatic feeders), refresh water and clean fountains if needed, and clean all types of litter boxes—always disposing of waste outside to keep the home fresh. And of course, my favorite part: spending quality time with your cat—playing, giving treats, or simply relaxing and cuddling so they feel loved while you’re away.

Cats
Jimmy can host up to 1 pet per night
Whether you leave detailed instructions or just a few notes, I’m attentive and intuitive about what your cat needs and make sure their routine is respected.
