“Timia is absolutely amazing! My sweet cat babies and very shy and not really social but they did well with Timia. She checked on them daily and provided pictures and updates. She was flexible and patient when entry into the home was difficult. She communicated very well. She was so great in fact that we booked her immediately for our next trip. Thank you Timia for caring for my babies!”

“Superb! I was stressed out about leaving my cat alone when i had an expected trip. Sydney is a great communicator that alleviated all the stress i had away, and took great care of my cat with updates pictures daily. I could tell my cat liked her. Would totally book again when i need someone to look after my cat.”

“My cats warmed up to her very quickly and they are very picky about people they trust! Great communication. Took photos of each cat so I could see them. Caught a few cute shots I will be saving! She fed them properly and took time to interact with each of them. Followed directions and suggestions down to a T. Overall she did a wonderful job and I will be contacting her again if we need another sitter because of how much the cats took such a liking to her.”

“Heidi did a fantastic job while my husband and I were out of town. My kitties were happy and fed. I got daily pictures of them. I will be using Heidi in the future and recommend her to anyone on Rover.”

“Kendra was sure to give my old girl lots of love when she came by and made me feel at ease with a lot of pictures. :) She was also very communicative and took the initiative in setting up our first meeting before I went away for the weekend, so that she could become familiar with Smokey’s feeding/medication schedule. Thank you, Kendra, for your hard work!”

“Lexie was responsible and communicative with us the whole time and kept our minds at ease. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our Ginny was in good hands. We will definitely request Lexie again in the future.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for family and friends since I was a kid. I grew up with a Siberian Husky—I love big dogs! I hope to create a special bond with your pet. I work evenings and weekends, so my mornings are typically wide open and best for walks. I can fit in time in the evening for short visits and potty breaks. I will follow all instructions for accessing your home and meeting with your pet. I will ensure their safety whenever we leave the home. My priority is their health and wellbeing!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 14 and have a lot of experience handling them. I’ve had experience with feeding them, giving medicine and cleaning up after them. I’m very good at walking dogs and I have experience walking multiple dogs at once if that is needed. I’m currently a doctor of physical therapy student at USC. With my current schedule I have class from 8:30-2:30 pm Tuesday-Thursday so I’m free any other time than that. I am a very clean person and can make sure things stay that way while you’re gone. I’ve had experience cleaning up any messes if that does occur. Im a very responsible person and you can trust that I will keep your pets and home safe.
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. It never mattered if they were furry or scaly. I’ve never gone a day without a pet or four as part of my family and I hope I never have to. My family and I always adopted smaller dogs (Yorkshires, malteses, and snchauzers), but I have pet sat much larger breeds (Rottweiler mix, pit bull mix, husky, etc.) and loved it. Although I have a soft spot in my heart for small dogs, nothing can beat a good run or long walk with a bigger breed. I love getting out and moving, but my sweet little dog can’t go very far with me. I’m hoping with rover I’ll get to enjoy some furry company for longer walks/jogs. I have experience caring for senior dogs, one having gone through chemotherapy, a couple others with surgery recovery. I’m good with picky eaters, troublemakers, and puppy energy. There’s just something about an animal that makes being patient really easy. I work a flexible remote job as a Senior Software Developer, so I have an easy schedule to work with. I have 3 cats at home and a Yorkshire mix who I love getting to work at home with. I don’t really need a side hustle, but I’ve always loved pet sitting for friends and thought I’d give this a try. I’m not planning on using my home for any services because I have a couple cats who wouldn’t appreciate it, but for visiting clients I’m more than happy to abide by any boundaries. I’m also comfortable with pet or nanny cameras. I have a couple I use at home for when I’m away too and they always put my mind at ease about how my babies are doing.
About: I have had cats a majority of my life and have a 1.5 year old cat named Otis right now, I had a 16.5 year old cat who passed in Nov ‘24 and I know the needs of kittens to senior cats. I understand that cats need daily play and attention even though they are “independent” and can be left alone. I work full time in Cayce and can do pop ins before 6:30am or after 4:30pm! Lunchtime if in Cayce area. I’m off weekends and every other Friday. I am respectful and have cat sat for many people and am conscious of people’s space and security. I will respect your rules of house when feeding and playing and spend time at your home to make sure your cat gets the love they need.
