About: I have loved all animals since I was a kid. I’ve had dogs and cats in my house almost my whole life. I have taken care of my animals and neighbors animals since I was about 7 year old. Being a veterinary assistant now, I take care of all different kinds of animals all day every day. I’m trained to take care of animals of all different ages as well as administering medications to all animals. Taking care of animals has always and will always be my biggest passion in life. I do work full time so i will not be home during these times : Tuesday- 7:30am-3pm Wednesday- 12pm-6pm Thursday- 7:30am-4:30pm Friday- 7:30am-6pm Saturday- 7:30am- 12pm Since I do work in a Vet Clinic we do have emergencies coming in every day so these times may fluctuate throughout the week. I do my best to communicate any timing issues on my part and apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may have. I have a large partially fenced yard. Since it’s only partially fenced I will keep your pets on a leash at all times while outside for safety reasons. I have a very friendly dog and cats to keep your fur babies company and will always keep an eye on them while meeting and playing. I have plenty of resources needed to keep your pets happy and safe including toys, beds, treats, leashes, and crates if needed.
