Highlights
Pet care experience
Dedicated Westside Sitter
In Miami, I had been walking dogs for my neighbors in Brickell and Edgewater and fell in love with being with animals and having the opportunity to get to build relationships with the owners as well! Now I've been watching, walking, and caring for pets in Los Angeles for more than 4 years and am extremely comfortable in the city. I’m an online student so it’s a perfect job for me while I’m in my studies and I can accommodate any schedule or sized pet. I love cats and dogs equally so if you told me to pick I’d have a hard time. I bring value in my ability to really act as a companion that can devote my attention to their needs. I’m currently waiting to join the US Coast Guard and have been on Rover since it started with many clients on and off Rover and can provide multiple references of recent pet service!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I’ve taken care of my family’s pets when they’re out of town more than enough and I’ve also mentioned previously that my time in Miami was spent taking care of local pets. I tend to walk them a lot if needed and try to include them in everything I do. If they like to stay home we also can watch movies together, read outside, or just listen to some calming music as well.
Ratings and reviews
Awesome as always

My first time hiring Tim. He was great with Jack and super nice and responsible. Our dog is geriatric and he took great care of him. Would definitely hire again.

It pains me to leave a review like this but I feel like I must. We were completely mislead by Timothy and were extremely disappointed in the service we received. Our dog is a 4 month old puppy who is still getting the hang of potty training but has been very good going on potty pads. I left Timothy two pages of care guidance for our pup that included if our dog was struggling to go outside during the heavy rain to set up a pee area with the pads inside. When we got home we immediately noticed our living room smelled like pee and there were new stains on the carpet and couch. I then saw there was pools of pee under our Christmas tree. We asked Timothy as he had not told us of anything while we were gone. He then revealed that our dog threw up twice and had accidents because of the rain. We would have expected some proactive updates on this while we were gone instead of finding it when we got home. I included in the care info that our doodle should be brushed every other day. I could tell by the pictures we were getting he wasn’t. When we returned our dog had matted hair. We also asked that he not have bones/chews alone in his crate as it’s a choking hazard, but we found him with two bones in his crate upon arriving home. Lastly, Timothy helped himself and possibly guests to our food and alcohol. Most of our food in the freezer was gone, along with most of our liquor including a bottle of champagne that was a special gift from friends. Granted we could have communicated better that this was not acceptable, but we found it somewhat appalling that someone would do this without at least asking first for clarification. Overall, we’re glad our dog is ok and thankful that Timothy at least sent us photos while we were gone, but that’s about it. Would not recommend.

Timothy was able to help us last minute and did a great job sitting out cat who had surgery.

Timothy was absolutely the best! He took amazing care of my husky and two cats, giving me daily updates that helped me feel completely at ease while I was away. He went above and beyond, and we’ll truly miss him. Highly recommend!



Timothy does everything he can to make our shy girl comfortable around him. She loves him! And we feel such relief knowing she is in good hands while we are out. Lots of photo updates too!

Schedule
This is my full-time job as an online student with a very loose schedule and I truly have the time and flexibility to devote to your pet, no matter how low or high maintenance. During the week I'm 100% open unless someone else has booked me on the app or I'm out of town.
