SUPER SMALLS PET BOARDING (NO DOGS)
Pet care experience
Boarding small animals such as rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters. Experienced caregiver of pets who have unique and different needs than dogs or cats. For the safety of my client's pets and my own I cannot board any animal that shows symptoms or is being treated for a contagious condition such as pasteurella , e.cuniculi, mites, lice, etc. I am a Veterinary Tech Assistant with a certificate from Middlesex Community College. I spent 8 years as a small animal volunteer caregiver and foster home with the MSPCA Nevins Farm in Methuen. I was also a member of their Small Animal Task Force. This is a group of hand picked volunteers that handle the more difficult cases at the shelter like sick, injured, abused, abandoned or neglected animals. I am a member of and insured through Pet Sitters Associates. I am familiar with special needs and senior pets. I have worked with, adopted, fostered and boarded a variety of animals including rabbits, guinea pigs, mice, rats, gerbils, hamsters, degus, chinchillas, hedgehogs, birds (doves, parakeets), reptiles (geckos, snakes) and know how to properly handle them. I have volunteered/fostered/adopted with the following rescues: Greyhound Pets of America, Italian Greyhound Rescue New England, East Coast Italian Greyhound Rescue, Animal Soup Rescue and Sanctuary, Lowell Humane Society, Poodle Rescue CT, Greyhound Friends and Rescue Dogs Rock NYC. I am also a former Dog Daycare Counselor. I am the proud parent of many rescued pets including a Lab, Poodle and Greyhound. We also have chickens and ducks, a dove, mice and a gerbil.
Reviews
Alberta took great care of my pet mice! She helped me move their cage, put them into their travel carrier for me (which is not an easy task sometimes...), and sent me pictures while I was away so I could see how they were doing. Highly recommended, I'll definitely go back to her if I need to board them again.
So happy to have found Alberta! Our Meadow stayed for six nights and we got updates and pictures of her stay. Alberta was so kind on flexibility of drop off and pick up. She took great care of our Guinea pig and has a wonderful set up for small animals. Thank you so much Alberta!
Alberta took great care of our rabbit Hopscotch. She made him toys and treats and sent us pictures of him and updates every night. We were very happy to find someone that’s good with small animals. I’d highly recommend her.
Alberta was a wonderful sitter for my guinea pig, Frodo of the Shire. It is very hard to find someone experienced in caring for the smaller of the furry ones, especially someone like Alberta who is as doting and responsible as I am with him. She sent me photos of him every day. I never had a moment's concern. She deserves the highest marks!! I would certainly recommend her to anyone and I plan to hire her in the future to care for my little precious piggie.
