Experienced Vet Tech for Sitting

Pet care experience

Hi, and thank you for checking out my sitting profile. My name is Alexandra (I go by Ali for short) and I am a long-time animal lover. I am an ICU veterinary technician for a major animal emergency hospital. This means I take care of sick and critical patients and am experienced in providing care to sick and special needs animals. I love my job and I love caring for the animals I see and helping them get better. Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my own pets, and other peoples as well when I care for them. In addition to my 7+ years of emergency veterinary medicine experience, I have owned almost every type of pet under the sun for the last 26 years. From rabbits to lizards to cats to dogs to hamsters and everything in between, I love all animals and enjoy caring for them all. I prefer to care for your pets in your own home as they tend to do better in their own environment. Usually I offer 3-4 visits a day—typically this is sufficient for most pets. I am able to offer in my house pet sitting to small dogs who are animal friendly and pocket pets. I am comfortable giving meds, injections, fluids, etc, and tending to special needs pets. You can rest comfortably while you are away knowing that I am able to offer CPR and first aid to pets, as well as recognize a true medical emergency. If you have any questions about my services, please let me know! I look forward to caring for your furry babies :)

My pets are older and I don't feel comfortable leaving them at a kennel where there are 30 other dogs to be cared for. Ali has always watched my dogs for me when I am gone. I took a week long trip to Germany last year and asked Ali to pet sit and for my flight home I misplaced my passport and had to stay another 3 days. Ali was happy to watch my dogs for the rest of the time I was gone and I knew they were in good hands. She is always great at communicating with me, she lets me know how my pets are doing daily and is always quick to answer any questions I have.. Awesome petsitter!!

Ali is a great veterinary technician and a loving pet owner. She treats all the animals she works with as if they are her own, and she is very compassionate and loving. She always pays great attention to detail and goes the extra mile. I would definitely recommend her as a sitter to my clients.

Ali is amazing with animals. Not only does she love spending time with them, she works as a veterinary technician and has a great understanding of animal health. She watches all of my animals for me when I travel, and I feel so comfortable knowing they are under her supervision. I have an older kitty with health problems, and I wouldn't trust anybody else to watch him. She has always been extremely responsible. All of my critters get their medications on time and they really seem to enjoy hanging out with her. The dogs are always pleasantly tuckered out when I get home. Her dog Mochi leads a very pampered life (he has more clothing than I do, I swear!), and I feel like she treats my pets like they are her own.
