Licensed vet tech! Love all animals

Pet care experience

I grew up with all sorts of animals including dogs, cats, horses, chickens, turkeys, rabbits, pigs, sheep and a few cattle. I’ve been a licensed vet tech for almost 4 years and been in veterinary medicine (general practice) for 7 years. I can currently do walks, visits and basic grooming needs as well. I’m experienced with diabetics and can help with insulin administration, subcutaneous fluids for kidney failure patients, ear/eye and oral medications, etc. I’ve done plenty of pet sitting for my veterinary clients and friends the past 7 years.

Alexis is passionate about all Animals. She is a licensed Veterinary Technician who can bring her skills with her while caring for your pets. She may be able to help alert you on anything in addition to your pets walk or care to help direct you to your veterinarian ☺️🐾

Alexis has a strong love for animals, and an impressive eye for details. She's very reliable, and trustworthy. As a veterinarian technician, she's capable of administering medicine, noticing changes in behaviors, and ability to read an animal's body language. I have trusted her with my animals and would recommend her services to others that truly love their dog.

Safety, trust & environment

I have two pit bulls who are the biggest babies you’ll ever meet. Pit bulls hold a special place in my heart! I also have two cats and a rabbit, as well as a few horses. I’m willing to help out with any size/breeds of animals that you may have!

Information Alexis S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any food allergies! I love to keep treats on hand and can use yours only if preferred.

A typical day

I love to interact with dogs with their favorite toys and walking routine! I will test their tricks and help them learn new ones if able. Puppies, large breed dogs and farm animals would probably be my favorite if I had to choose. But honestly, I have a heart for all animals big and small. I can adjust to many different personalities and quirks.
