Pet care experience

Experienced & Caring Pet Sitter

I have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, including senior pets and animals with special needs. I’ve cared for dogs with arthritis, mobility problems, and cancer, helping them move around safely, go outside, and stay comfortable. I also have experience with physical-therapy routines, including assisting a dog with weakened back legs and water-treadmill therapy. With cats and dogs, I’ve helped give medications and have experience giving fluids to a cat with kidney issues. I’ve also walked, fed, and watched neighbors’ dogs, including Charlie, Rosie, and Parker. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable adjusting my care to each pet’s individual needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel comfortable, whether that means an energetic walk, extra patience with a senior dog, medication at a certain time, or simply giving a shy pet some space. I’m very careful with leashes, doors, gates, feeding instructions, and anything else an owner points out. Having cared for pets with mobility issues and other special needs, I’m used to paying attention to the little things and adjusting my care when needed. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and as close to their normal routine as possible while you’re away.

Tyler has a genuine heart for animals and treats every pet as if they were his own. He has regularly helped with daily check-ins and walks for my two dogs, and I have always trusted them completely in his care. What truly sets Tyler apart is the compassion he shows during life’s hardest moments. During my golden retriever’s final days, he went above and beyond to help manage his complicated oncology and pain medication schedule, and he even helped lift him in and out of the house so he could comfortably go outside. I honestly don’t know how I would have gotten through that incredibly difficult time without his support. At the same time, Tyler made sure my younger, more energetic dog still received the attention, exercise, and play she needed while she struggled to understand what was happening with her brother. His patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals are unmatched. I recommend Tyler without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable pet sitter. Your pets will be loved and cared for as if they were family.

I am happy to recommend Tyler as a pet caregiver. He has a unique and natural ability to bond with animals, and our pets have always felt instantly comfortable around him thanks to his caring nature. Tyler has watched our dogs and cats on multiple occasions, and he has never once been late for a walk or a feeding. Our pets get genuinely excited whenever he comes over, whether it’s for playtime, a walk, or a meal. That kind of enthusiasm speaks for itself. Tyler is reliable, attentive, and clearly loves what he does. I highly recommend him for any pet care needs.

Tyler Cobbs is hands down one of the most intuitive, empathetic, and trustworthy people I’ve ever met, especially when it comes to caring for animals. Cats and dogs naturally gravitate toward him, but what truly sets him apart is his gentle patience and extraordinary ability to handle specialized medical needs—he personally administered fluids to my cat during a difficult battle with kidney issues, handling the process with unbelievable care. His dedication, exceptional work ethic, and genuine love for pets give me complete peace of mind knowing any animal in his care is safe, cherished, and getting top-tier customer service.

Tyler is absolutely great with my dog. I'm often gone for more than four hours and he is always ready and willing to come play with Murphy (medium goldendoodle), feed and walk him. Murphy looks forward to Tyler's visits as well. Tyler has also provided dog care when I go on weekend trips. He's trustworthy and reliablef. If I'm gone, I know that Murphy is well taken care of and has lots of play time. I'd recommend Tyler highly for pet care :)

Hi there! I was in desperate need of someone to watch my beautiful Shih Tzu’s, and a close friend referred me to her son, Tyler, and let me tell y’all he did FANTASTIC! He followed every instruction, and beyond, my babies absolutely adored him, and he most definitely will be watching after them again, 10/10!!

Tyler is a neighbor we’ve trusted with our pups for years! When we had a senior dog who needed a short stroll and some pets, Tyler knew exactly what he needed. A much larger puppy arrived and Tyler was up to the task of longer walks and playtime. Easily trusted and efficient

Schedule

My schedule is fairly flexible, which gives me plenty of time to provide pets with consistent attention and care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting. I can also work around each pet’s normal routine and make sure they get the care and attention they’re used to.

Please let me know about your pet’s normal routine, personality, feeding schedule, medical or mobility needs, and any behaviors or triggers I should be aware of. If your pet requires medication, PLEASE provide clear written instructions including the medication, dosage, time it should be given, and any special instructions. I’d also like to know if your pet has difficulty taking medication or if there are things that make it easier, such as giving it with food or a favorite treat. I have experience caring for senior and special-needs pets, administering oral medications, and giving subcutaneous fluids, and I will always follow your pet’s care instructions closely.
