Pet care experience

A pet's best friend 🐶

I've been in love with animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with one cat (though his personality could honestly count for four), and convinced my parents to rescue three more after he had crossed the rainbow bridge. I helped my father in providing palliative care to him during his last hurrah, and also assisted in caring for one of the cats we adopted afterwards after he turned ended up being terminally ill with special needs, and have experience pilling both cats and dogs, and giving subcutaneous fluids, liquid, and topical medication to any kitties in your home who may need it.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have about 1 years' worth of professional experience working as a Kennel Technician at hospitals which also saw exotic animals, so I'd be happy to care for your bird, bunny, or lizard (along with many other species) if you'll have me! While I am much more accustomed to cats, I have learned so much in my experience working the kennel (especially during holiday season!) and am secure in my ability to provide the best care to all pets, no matter their species.

Gabriel takes outstanding care of our three cats. We hate leaving them, but it’s good to know they are well cared for.

This was our first time leaving our cat alone for more than 6hrs, so we really needed someone who is familiar with cats and attentive. Gabriel was very communicative from beginning to end, and kept us appraised of everything. Couldn’t have asked for a better rover!

Schedule

I am currently pet-sitting and dog walking full time, so my schedule remains relatively open when it comes to caring for all kinds of pets! I am also Jewish, and will take time off to observe the biggest Jewish holidays. The dates to keep in mind for 2025 are Passover Eve (past 12 PM on April 12), Rosh Hashanah (past 12 PM on September 22, and ALL DAY September 23), and Yom Kippur (past 12 PM 1 and ALL DAY October 2). I also observe other Jewish holidays, but am generally able to schedule bookings around and throughout them. Please feel free to reach out during Easter and Christmas, as I am all but guaranteed to be free on those days!

Maintenance wanted done around the house while you're gone 4. Contact information for your veterinarian and name of animal hospital 5. Any special needs/symptoms/behaviors to watch out for? Does anything flare-up when anxious? Most recent vaccination records? 6. History of dog aggression/reactivity? Barrier aggression? Triggers? 7. Bite history?
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.
