Information Gabriel R. would like to know about your pet

I believe that all dogs are different and special members of the family. It is important to know if the dog is sociable around other pets and other people, and if there are any special considerations to take into account for specific pet care. Meet and greets are a great way of doing that, and any concerns or questions would be great to know during that period of time!

A typical day

I can go where your dog enjoys the most in your neighborhood! I’d love to find a dog park in your area, and bring them to allow for socialization, if the owner is permitting of that.

Pet care experience

Having my own dog before, I understand the needs of taking care of a dog! Leash training is an essential part of having a pet, and that is something I know how to work with without using any shock collar, or prong devices that might be painful to your pet. Currently I am a Chemistry student, and have a very flexible schedule, so I am able to work around most individuals schedules. I am always willing to talk and coordinate something to work out a pet care schedule, communication is key and important to figuring out a schedule that meets both your pets and family’s needs. I am very respectful and will work with a client according to their rules, and how they would like to go about caring for there pet. The client’s house privacy and protection is something I take very seriously, and respect however the client wishes to go about their pet’s care. I am respectful, and accommodating to all.

Gabriel took great care of my senior dog for 2 days in my home. He was respectful, responsive and sent lots of photos of our sweet boy. He left the house spotless and Dallas was a happy boy when we got home. I would definitely hire him again! Thanks, Gabriel!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
