I am always respectful of other people's homes and spaces and understand that I am providing a professional yet caring service by helping with your pet's needs.

Information Talia S. would like to know about your pet

Before meeting your pets, it is important for me to know a little bit about their personalities. How do they respond to strangers? What energy level do they generally maintain? Do they have any food allergies or other health concerns? If we encounter another dog on a walk, should we say hello or mind our own business?

A typical day

I love to spend time outdoors in nature and I would love a furry companion to join me as I explore the area! Of course, I am just as happy to relax with a kitty and read a good book.

Talia is warm, attentive, timely, and a big animal lover. Our stubborn, and often aloof, shiba warmed right up to her, which is a major win in our books. And our very shy cat immediately came out of his cave to let her give him pets. You’re in very good hands with Talia’s care!

Our dog is reactive and not always great with people. He ran up to Talia right away and never feared her. Talia was also responsive and very sweet. Will likely book again!

Very good experience! Talia was super flexible with an urgent last minute booking request. She was very quick with her responses and went above and beyond with her service. Thank you Talia! We will definitely be reaching out again.

We have used Talia in the past to watch and take care of our cat and our chickens. She loves all animals and has always been dependable, responsible and trustworthy. I would highly recommend her as a pet caregiver.

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.
