Safety, trust & environment

When I step into your home, I recognize that I am also stepping into your dog’s home. My goal is to take care of your dog’s basic needs (water, food, exercise, socializing/play, etc) without being a disruption to the environment that is more than just a city apartment to them.

Pet care experience

Hey! I’ve been walking and caring for dogs of all kinds since I was eight. I've been walking for Rover since 2022. For five years, I walked a 100+ pound anxious/aggressive boxer mix that my family had adopted. As such, I am confident in my ability to keep any dog, big or small, safe, comfortable, and behaved on a walk. I can be firm when needed, but I also love to roll around and have fun with any pup I meet. I know how to be patient with a dog who is reluctant to engage, or has trouble warming up to strangers. Every dog has a unique personality—I’d love to get to know yours!

Tim was extremely communicative with us throughout the multi-day care for our elderly dog. Highly recommend and would definitely use again!

Thanks Tim for watching Kenai so last minute! He was knocked out when I arrived back home so thanks for playing with him too!

Fantastic dog walker — punctual, reliable, and wonderful with my dog. I felt completely confident leaving him in their care and would absolutely book 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.
