I am currently enrolled in school full time and hoping to use my spare time I have to check in on pets and give them care. I love going hiking and spending as much time outside as I can.

A typical day

The actives very with each type of animal, with those of low active a nice walk and spending time outdoors. For those who are more active it will be a longer walk or hike, a day at the beach or dog park playing with toys that will have the pup happy and tired by the end of the day.

Pet care experience

Hi! I have been around animals my entire life, my family had our own mini farm with rabbits to goats. Ive grown up with dogs and cats of all ages. I have experience with leash training, potty training and giving medication. I am up to go any type of walk from around the neighborhood, to a park or on a hike! Whatever energy your furry friend has!

Xavier is an AMAZING pet sitter. He even got my skiddish cat to run up to him, jump on his lap, and purr after just two days of visiting. He was able to give my other cat her medicine every morning and night with no issues. I will definitly be reaching out to Xavier the next time I need a sitter.

Oly-dog had a great time during his week-long stay. Xavier helped put me at ease through clear communication, responsiveness, and follow-through with Oly's care plan. I'm myself a sitter with about 1,000 bookings through Rover, so I know a good-one from a lackluster-one; Xavier makes the cut. Oly would stay again.

Xavier has been amazing with my little Koda. Koda can be a bit anxious and won’t leave with just anyone. He was extremely patient and won Koda over quickly. Xavier has also been very reliable and professional. I have scheduled weekly walks with him.

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.
