Availability

I work full-time as a Registered Veterinary Technician in San Francisco and have four 10-hour shifts (Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from 7am–6:30pm). Because of this, I’m best suited for pets who are comfortable with a predictable routine and don’t require midday weekday visits on those days. I’m typically available for: • Morning visits before work • Evening walks and drop-ins after 6:45pm • Overnight care • Full availability on Tuesdays, weekends, and many holidays

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible to reduce stress. This includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications if needed. I provide regular updates and photos so owners know how their pet is doing while they’re away. I’m also attentive to subtle changes in behavior or health and will communicate promptly if anything seems unusual. As a Registered Veterinary Technician working in a veterinary clinic, I’m comfortable administering medications (oral, topical, or injections if needed) and caring for senior pets. I keep visits calm, structured, and positive so pets feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I treat every home with respect and leave things clean and tidy.

Information Ada K. would like to know about your pet

If your pet has any specials needs or medications. If they have preferences on where to walk and when they eat and what type of treats they like.

A typical day

A typical day depends on the pet’s routine, but I always try to keep their schedule as consistent as possible with what they’re used to at home. For dogs, that usually includes morning walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. In the evenings we’ll usually go for another walk, followed by dinner and some relaxed time together. For cats, visits usually include feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, and interactive playtime. Many cats also enjoy quiet companionship, so I spend time sitting with them and giving attention if they like it. Because I work as a Registered Veterinary Technician, I’m also comfortable giving medications if needed and keeping an eye on any subtle health changes. Fun Activities Fun activities depend on each pet’s personality and energy level. For dogs this might include neighborhood walks, light play, enrichment toys, or practicing basic commands with positive reinforcement. For calmer or senior pets, it may simply be relaxed companionship and gentle attention. For cats, activities often include wand toys, laser play, puzzle feeders, or other interactive games to keep them mentally stimulated. My goal is always to keep pets happy, comfortable, and engaged while their owners are away.

Experienced RVT Pet Care

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) working full-time in a veterinary clinic here in San Francisco. I bring medical knowledge, professionalism, and calm handling skills to every visit — while still keeping things relaxed and enjoyable for your pet. I specialize in caring for well-adjusted adult dogs and cats who thrive with consistency and gentle attention. Whether your pet needs a daily walk, drop-in care, or overnight companionship, I provide dependable, attentive service with strong communication so you always know how things are going. As an RVT, I’m comfortable administering medications (oral, topical, injections such as insulin if needed) and monitoring for any subtle health changes. While I’m happy to support pets with medical needs, I focus on stable, easygoing patients rather than complex behavioral cases. I currently serve the Mission District, Bernal Heights, Noe Valley, and surrounding San Francisco neighborhoods, and I’m open to traveling toward Pacific Heights when schedules allow.

Ada was on time and came over to help give fluids to my cat. She’s very sweet and competent. I’d definitely let her care for my cat with complex medication needs again

Ada is the perfect person to look after your pets. Not only is she a skilled veterinary technician, she has been an all around pet lover for as long as I’ve known her. She has had multiple cats of her own and always gives them the highest level of care. She has the expertise required for all types of emergencies as well as the kindness to make your pets feel loved.

Ada is great with pets and animals in general. She is very caring and very in-tuned with their needs. In addition to that, she’s a very loving person, too, when it comes to animals.

Ada is an ideal pet sitter. She loves animals and she understands their behavior. She is a trained vet tech, and she is caring and responsible. She took care of our dog, Kazoo, when she was a little puppy, and Kazoo fell in love with her. Ada is a natural with pets, she is a great communicator, she can handle all kinds of pet personalities and needs. I highly recommend her as a caregiver!
