About: Hello, I’m Kay, a veterinary technician with 8 years of experience offering professional in-home drop-in care. With nearly a decade in veterinary medicine, I bring both compassion and clinical expertise to every visit. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. Over the past 8 years, I have gained extensive experience administering oral, topical, and injectable medications, as well as supporting pets with chronic conditions such as diabetes, kidney disease, and arthritis. Beyond medical care, I closely monitor for changes in appetite, hydration, behavior, or mobility—subtle details that can be especially important for pets with ongoing health needs. During drop-in visits, I can provide:     •    Feeding and fresh water refills     •    Litter box cleaning or basic waste removal     •    Medication administration (oral, topical, injectable)     •    Chronic condition support and monitoring     •    General wellness checks (hydration, appetite, comfort level)     •    Visit reports with notes and photos for your reassurance In addition, I am trained to recognize early signs of distress and respond appropriately in urgent situations. If an emergency arises, I can provide immediate first aid and ensure your pet receives prompt veterinary attention. Every animal I care for is treated with the same respect and attention I would give my own. Whether your pet is a healthy, playful companion or one who requires a bit of extra medical support, you can trust that I’ll bring reliability, knowledge, and compassion to every visit. Pet care is my full-time focus, so I’m able to provide consistent, reliable visits throughout the week. I build my schedule around my clients’ needs, making sure every pet gets attention, medication, and care exactly when they need it. I provide attentive, personalized care in your pet’s familiar environment. This includes feeding, fresh water, litter box or waste cleanup, play and enrichment, medication administration, and monitoring for any changes in health or behavior. I treat every pet with the same compassion and professionalism I would my own, and I provide updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

Danielle took the time to come meet my shy dog before the day of his walk which was really sweet and helpful for putting me at ease (and him too i’m sure). On the day of the walk, she was very gentle, sweet, and patient with him when he was nervous to come out of his crate for the walk. I highly recommend her for anyone, especially dogs that need an extra sweet and patient walker.

About: Hello! My name is Ryan and I grew up on a farm training therapy dogs. I'm comfortable and flexible with dog walking and over night visits. I'm available early mornings before I make the coffee at Wawa and all afternoons and evenings. Sundays are typically my day off, but I can be flexible. I have a one bedroom with my partner in Germantown which isn't far from from my favorite hiking spots. I prefer to bathe dogs when they arrive for a stay.

About: I've had a family dog for 6 years now and I love taking care of her, she means the world to me. I've also cared for neighbors' dogs for both single days and overnight multiple days. I enjoy cats as well, I don't own any but I have taken care of a neighbor's cat multiple times and I have numerous friends who own cats that I enjoy being around. I'm currently a student and I will be doing clinical rotations at hospitals this summer so I am not available every day, however they only take place 3 days a week so I am completely free 4 days a week and have some limited time after clinicals one day. I recently moved and do not have any pets at my current location. I could take a pet to my place but prefer going to a client's home.
