Pet care experience

Hi everyone! I am a recent law school graduate who is currently studying for the bar exam. You're not supposed to "work" during bar prep, but life is expensive, and I needed to find a way to make money for food and rent while I study. The nice part about studying is that I am available 24/7, around the clock. As long as I have wifi, I can study anywhere, and I can take a break every 1.5-2 hours to walk dogs, check in on pets, play fetch, etc. As for my history, I grew up with dogs and cats. We had german shepherds when I was a kid, and a few indoor cats as well. I have volunteered for multiple different animal rescues in Oregon- ranging from farm sanctuaries to foster based rescue programs, where I fostered 11 different dogs and puppies over the course of 6 months and got them all adopted into good homes! I have watched all types of animals for friends and family- including older pets, pets who need medication, pets with epilepsy, etc. Please reach out to me! I would love to meet your pets and help out in any way I can!

Xavie is amazing! She takes this job seriously and her having multiple big dogs gave me confidence that she could handle mine without any issues. I was able to leave home without any doubts that my world was in great hands. You can tell she genuinely cares, and she loves animals.

Xavie did great, did the meet and greet, then the drop-ins. I definitely think they helped with my new dog. Had already rebooked!

Xavie has watched our dogs during our travels and has stepped in for daytime walks over the last six years. Her positive energy is infectious, and our dogs love her just as much as we do! As someone who has fostered numerous dogs and loves her own three rescue dogs, I can confidently say that Xavie is the perfect choice for anyone seeking safe, loving care and exceptional, reliable service!

Xavie, our regular dog sitter, understands that our two Goldens have distinct personalities. She effortlessly caters to their individual needs, providing them with the care and attention they require. Xavie treats them like family.
