Communicative, adaptive, and fun!

Pet care experience

One day living in Charlotte, NC a friend who lived a few floors below asked if I wanted to join him in buying a puppy from Craigslist. It turns out he had done his due diligence and with all the proper paperwork, Nala, a purebred white Siberian Husky entered my life. Over the coming months and years, I was able to help in Nala's training along with watching her on several occasions when my friend went on trips. Through these memorable interactions, my passion for dogs was reawakened and I knew it was becoming more than just a hobby. Fast forward a few years later, I signed up for Wag to complete walks in my area and soon learned about Rover and have been with it consistently since early 2019. I take pride in communication, safety, fun, and cleanliness. I describe myself as having essential skills and a personable demeanor that allow both owners and their respective pets to form trust and a bond with me. My primary goal is for you to have peace of mind while your pets are in my care. I‘m consistent and organized with food, potty breaks, and any other needs that may arise. - Star Sitter Status (Maintain a high star rating, Respond in a timely manner, Rarely cancel, Successfully book new clients, Retain & book repeat clients) - Verified enhanced background check badge, providing an extra layer of security and peace of mind. - Worked for a Professional Dog Trainer in Charlotte, NC for several months with exposure to aggression, leash pulling, recall, resource guarding, and prey drive. - Professional grade photos. I've had several photos utilized by clients in frames and paintings. - I strive for 10K+ steps a day and enjoy walks/hikes regardless of challenging weather. - Housesitting Perks: Happy to handle mail/packages, trash/recycling, indoor/outdoor plants, dishes, laundry, security, lawn care, etc. I typically leave a gift for first-time sittings and provide white glove service.

Tim is the best! We’ve used him multiple times over the last couple of years and he always gives us plenty of updates and pics/videos. He really goes above and beyond to take care of your home too (empties the trash, brings in the mail or packages, etc). I really can’t see enough about how great he is!

Tim is the MVP of all dog sitters. He is an incredibly talented and patient dog and house sitter. There is no one else in the world we trust with our pup like we do with Tim. He gives us such peace of mind (and amazing pictures)… and has become a great friend to us through our repeat stays! Thanks for everything, Tim!

A typical day

Based on sleeping and feeding schedules, I’m happy to get up early or sleep in. It's great to start the day by walking around the neighborhood or playing in the yard. I enjoy playing fetch, tug of war, hiking, and running around as much as dogs do! My ultimate goal is to ensure your pet(s) feels comfortable and happy while sending you consistent updates including photos/videos so you can miss your pet(s) just the right amount while enjoying your time away.
