Trustworthy "Fur Baby" Enthusiast

Pet care experience

My grandpa, dad, and now my older brother have all gone to school for vet medicine. Though becoming an animal doctor is not my aspiration, I still have an enduring passion for furry friends due in part no doubt from being raised in such close proximity to the quality of their care. Having close relatives with decades spent in the veterinarian profession gives me multiple advantages in this line of work not only because I have easy access to credible information in the case of an emergency but also because I have, at least, four years worth of experience working in animal clinics as both a technician and a kennel care assistant. What I was responsible for at this job has prepared me for anything I can foresee needing to know working through Rover.

Safety, trust & environment

I live alone in a one bedroom apartment in Calabasas. Immediately accessible in my area is a dog park and miles of hiking trails which makes up for the fact that I don't have a private yard. As someone who lives an active and empathetic lifestyle, you can expect me to be an energetic and compassionate companion for your pet.

Information Gavin D. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for your pet, it is important for me to know about any special accommodation that your fur baby needs. This could include character/behavior quirks, medications, chronic conditions, or preferences that your pet may have personally.

A typical day

I will pay extra care and attention to every animal under my supervision giving them plenty of pets and scratches. Walking trails are easily accessible to me, so a hike is definitely on the itinerary.
