Pet care experience

I recently started taking care of my friends' cats and figured that I bring this service to Rover. I also periodically take care of my girlfriend's cats when she is away. -Please be mindful of the drop-off and pick-up times that you set or that we agree upon to avoid any additional charges.

Alex helped me out tremendously when my original sitter had a last-minute cancelation right before a two-week long vacation. He updated me on my cat's well-being on a daily basis and entertained her at his place during my time away. He proved his capacity to abide by my instructions for her food intake as well as regularly made sure that her water bowl was full and that her litter box was clean. I would recommend him to anyone that would like to have their cat cared and loved for rest assured while they are away.

Alex was great. Very reachable and responsive to all communications. Loved getting pics of walking my dog too. This was my first time using Rover.com and will definitely use Alex again. Thanks for taking good care of Rocky for me.

Alex watched our dog Clara for one night and Clara raved about the stay. He was flexible on scheduling and sent photos. Will definitely hire him again!

Typically, the cats need some time to acclimate to a new environment and will hang out under the bed until they're ready to explore the surroundings. I give them that time and let them come out when they please.

Information Alexander G. would like to know about your pet

How often do you give your cats treats? How are they with strangers? Any rare history that I should be aware of? What's his or her age?

A typical day

I live by a trail, and I'm open to walking the cat if the owners please. Also, I have a large sliding glass door that previous cats loved to pass the time watching the birds, squirrels and the neighbor's cat.

Availability

Pet care fits cohesively into my daily schedule. I set aside time for them in the morning before leaving for work as well as the afternoon and evening. I have a balcony with a bird feeder to entertain the cats and plenty of warm spaces for them to explore.
