Actor/ Pet Sitter Extraordinaire!

Pet care experience

Hello, my name is Xavier and I am a singer, actor and musician from Key West, Florida. I moved to Manhattan to pursue an acting career in 2014, and have lived here ever since. In Florida I pet sat for my pastor, friends, neighbors and teachers when they went out of town. I also grew up owning a lot of pets. I had a few guinea pigs, a dwarf hamster, a hedgehog, a few Red-eared slider turtles, goldfish, a Rottweiler and a Pitbull so I have a lot of experience taking care of small pets as well as large pets. Some of my best attributes are that I am knowledgeable and have pet care experience, I am reliable, trustworthy, have high attention to detail, I’m physically fit, I have stronger interpersonal and communication skills, I’m empathetic, patient with pets, and have excellent communication skills.

Xavier did well with my dog! He communicated well and was responsive throughout the stay, sent photos, and just seemed to be a natural with dog care.

Xavier is amazing. He swept in last minute for me and took care of my 2 cats and 1 rabbit for 4 days while I went on vacation. This was my first time using Rover, and he asked great care questions and really made me feel comfortable. His drop in visits were always on time and he sent great updates, so I never once worried while I was away. One of my cats is very shy with new people and Xavier took extra care to give him attention and play with him on his own terms. Truly above and beyond and I'm so thankful for his attentiveness. Will absolutely use Xavier again next time I need a sitter.

Xavier was attentive and loving to my 3.5 yr old Yorkie (DeWillo) who is very needy and experiences separation anxiety whenever he’s away from me. Xavier was also reliable and kept me updated with how DeWillo was doing. I felt extremely comfortable with having DeWillo in his care, and I was able to enjoy my time away, worry free. Xavier is highly recommended!

Xavier is the best!! Before dropping my baby off we did a meet and greet the day prior. This immediately made me feel super comfortable and happy leaving Nike with him. He is super attentive to the little details to ensure my Nike was comfortable. I usually never leave my dog with someone unless they are family but Xavier moving forward will be my first call whenever I need a sitter! Thank you again for loving my baby ❤️❤️❤️

I’m currently unemployed, so my schedule is very flexible! I have lots of free time, and would take very good care of your fur baby. :)
