About: I have worked as a small animal veterinary technician for 12 months and have experience administering medications (oral, topical, IV, SQ) and monitoring for telltale signs of abnormal behavior in small animals. I am currently available 7 days a week at any time. I am currently not taking classes and have lots of free time to take care of pets! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their established routine. I ensure they’re fed on time, get their usual exercise, and receive plenty of attention. I respect the client’s home, keeping it clean and removing any hazards to their pets. If the pet has special needs (e.g., medications, grooming requirements), I follow instructions carefully. I also keep the client informed of their pet's well-being with regular updates and photos.

“Avery was amazing with our pups! She arrived promptly and kept in communication with us the whole time. We would definitely recommend her and we will be using her again!”
12. Madison M.
“Madison was fantastic! Our Max has separation issues and a sensitive personality. No, he really really does. Ok, he may be a little spoiled too. Madison kept him entertained with his ball and outside time and lots of snuggles. Max instantly fell in love with her. House was just like it was when she left. Will definitely use her for any future trips.”

When caring for another person's four-legged friend, I make sure to keep all gates and doors closed while indoors. Additionally, I always leash the animals before opening any doors or fixtures. Finally, when I leave a residence, I ensure that all entry and exit areas are secured and left as I found them.
