Dog Walking Canaan

About: I love all animals! I currently have 2 cats of my own 4 geckos, a ball python, and a tarantula as a pet. I have experience caring for animals such as all different types of dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, rodents, and fish. I started as a receptionist at a multiple doctor Veterinary Hospital in my hometown in Rhode Island. I learned a lot but I wanted a more of a challenge and to expand my skillset. I applied to be an entry level Veterinary Technician assistant at Ocean State Veterinary Specialists- an extremely busy Veterinary ER which included 24 hour ER care, inpatient hospitalization, cardiology, radiology, CT, Surgery, oncology, etc. At that point I could not touch the animals, I was there specifically to clean, do laundry, stock the hospital, train other employees and help with animal aftercare. At Ocean State Veterinary Specialists they had a training program in place where you could start out as an entry level technician assistant and move up levels and be offered more responsibilities. I worked up through the 4 levels of technician assistant (learning how to restrain pets for treatment, how to do x-rays, learning how to perform different tests in our laboratory, obtaining vitals and what was normal and abnormal, basic blood draws, basic treatments for hospitalized pets, etc.) And because of my hardwork, determination, and attention to detail I was then was picked by the Doctors and the main owner of the hospital to do the Technician training program they had available at the hospital. So I went through vigorous training which included on the floor training with seasoned Veterinary Technicians, we also had lectures and labs and tests we had to complete. I passed the training that was provided and I was then considered a new technician in the hospital. I had many learning opportunities including training with one of the ER critical care doctors (Dr. Jessica Sun) anesthesia training with the lead tech from surgery, training to help the doctors perform medical procedures with an established tech and more. My training continued for a few years and I ended up in my role as one of the main ER technicians. In my role I triaged and helped perform immediate life saving measures on all types of animals (including exotic pets) I also did work in the treatment section of the hospital a couple of times a week so I helped care for hospitalized patients who for example: recently had surgery, blocked cats who had urinary catheters, pets waiting to see specialists like Oncology and cardiology. I also cared for geriatric patients, neonates (babies that were just born) puppies, kittens. I also enjoyed working with our hospitalized exotics which typically included a variety of rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, reptiles etc. I could go on about my experience at the hospital. I learned so much there and am extremely grateful for working there. I am comfortable administering by mouth medication, fluids under the skin, insulin injections, etc. I am willing to provide my resume and more information as far as my previous work experience per request. I am very accommodating. I update my schedule very frequently and I will work with you and your schedule to be there for your pets when I am needed. I will do everything in my power to make sure pets are comfortable in their own home and taken of the way I would like my pets to be cared for!

About: I've cared for dogs since I was ten years old. I've cared for puppies and senior dogs, and I have far too much experience with elderly dogs near the end of their lives. I love them all more than words, and it's a dream to get paid to play with new dogs! My first responsibility is as a dad (of human children), so I'm available for dogs from the minute the kids leave in the morning until the minute they walk in the door in the afternoon. I have wilderness emergency medical training, and carry basic dog supplies even on short walks around my own block. I treat dogs with the utmost love and care, and only want them to live good and happy lives.

About: I’ve had my own animals, both cats and dogs (mainly cats) since I was 6 years old. I’ve had to administer insulin before to my diabetic cat that has since passed. My experience with dogs are mainly of the bigger size (I had a pitbull/boxer mix and a pure bred chow chow). I’m currently working as a Direct Support Professional overnights 9pm-9am Thursday through Saturday (technically Sunday 9am). So I’m pretty open for picking up last minute gigs if needed. I would love to have a break down of your pets day to day. Typically when they are most ready to play or eat. When potty breaks need to be done around.

“Kenda was wonderful with Az! Kenda filled in for our regular morning walker for 2 weeks and she was reliable, efficient and kind. Az loved her. She was a real pleasure to work with!”
