Pet care experience
I’ve had an exponential amount of animals through fostering. I have worked in a Vet’s office and can care for special needs pets. I was a Kennel technician trained as a Veterinary Technician so I’ve cleaned up and generally cared for animals and moved up to administering medications. I have a reliable vehicle and tons of free time during the weeks that I am not traveling! I am more than willing to be flexible with your needs whether that be dates, specific animal needs, or even pricing. My goal is to make you feel comfortable with your pet in my care! A bit about me: I am an Honors, Zoology student. I love staying involved in classes and participating in classes like Animal Biology and Microbiology. I volunteer a lot with organizations off campus while working two On-Campus jobs during the Spring and Fall semester. I am currently trying to gain as many experiences through programs across my college campus like studying abroad and participating in undergraduate research. I would say that my cat and school are the most important things in my life!
Reviews
Arrived early, polite, responsive, flexible when I let her know I was coming home a few min later than anticipated, even helped me unload bags when I arrived! Very knowledgeable and experienced with animals and their needs, and got along wonderfully with my two whippets. Highly recommend!
Great Service. She is always on time and early! She has handled my littles of kittens and puppies in the past with ease and does well with administering medication. Also does a great job of cleaning up after my animals while I’m away and me!

Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I personally like to treat my pets as family. They sleep with me, sometimes getting my food, and they get to go everywhere with me. Of course, I am more than willing to follow any general rules and routines you have with your pets that may not align with my own. I find that following a normal routine almost always helps reduce anxiety while you are away.
Information Kalissa M. would like to know about your pet
I like to know what you would generally do with your pet. Any small preferences of an animal can help make the difference of the temperament around people. Of course, general medical information and contact information for family and vet’s are important to make sure everyone is safe and healthy. I will always ask you to leave a list of a routine with contact information just to make sure no steps are missed!
A typical day
I always try to show the same care that you would give them. I love to just hang out and play with animals. I want every animal to feel loved, because I always think that it makes stressful situations like being around a new person easier!
