“Victoria was great! She responded quickly and was available for a last minute booking. She did a meet and greet with my 2 cats and answered all my questions. She even went the extra mile to set out my garbage can when I asked her. I love the communication through the app and the multiple photos I received daily. I will definitely be booking through her again in the future if she is available when needed.”

And I appreciated Alysa's thorough communication through the entire process.”

About: I am a Licensed Veterinary Technician, a licensed positive reinforcement Canine Obedience Instructor, and am Pet CPR and First Aid certified! I have cared for pets for most of my life, with all stages of lives and medical needs. I have experience with caring for young through senior age, diabetics, surgical recovery pets, pets with behavioral needs, and everyday average happy kiddos! I can make nearly any pet care situation work. I have flexible hours, rates, and am always open for discussion! I have experience with large animal, small mammal, aquatics, birds, and dogs/cats. I have made pet care my entire life. I continue to strive to be the best I can be for my own pets, and am happy to extend that love out to other peoples' pets as well. I have an open schedule so that I can be available when people need. I am currently in the process of fencing my yard. At this time, we take on-leash walks in the neighborhood. The yard is monitored and we have a security system that alerts us to movement outside, so that we don't have accidental run-ins with moose. Pets are not left outside unattended. Kitties are restricted to indoor only, and can have their own private room if needed. My personal pets are crate trained, so that if I have a non-social pet in the home, I am able to give them the space they need. If I am in a client's home, I do not bring visitors, I do not bring my own pets, and I make accommodations for each situations specific needs. All pets are cared for to the standard that I would expect my own to be cared for. I am dependable, honest, and will always do my best to do exactly what is asked of me.
