Safety, trust & environment

I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their usual routines as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific preferences your pet has. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and a calm, clean environment while you’re away. I’m attentive to behavior and mood, so I can adjust my approach depending on whether a pet is energetic, shy, or needs extra patience. I also prioritize safety at all times and keep you updated with regular messages so you always know how your pet is doing.

Caring for Pets Like My Own

Pet care experience

I bring a lifetime of hands-on experience and genuinely personalized care to every pet I watch. I grew up with dogs and have spent years caring for friends’ pets, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and routines. I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel safe, happy, and loved. As a current cat owner, I pay close attention to subtle behaviors and understand how important consistency and patience are, especially for shy or anxious pets. Whether it’s sticking to a dog’s favorite walking route or giving a cat the space they need to warm up, I adapt to each animal’s needs. Above all, I treat every pet like they’re my own. That means reliable communication, attention to detail, and making sure you feel confident and at ease while you’re away.

Thomas is the perfect pet sitter! He watched my two cats and was incredibly communicative throughout. He sent lots of photos, played with them every day, and spent extra time making sure they were well cared for. You can tell he’s a true animal lover. 10/10, I would absolutely book with him again!

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.
