Pet care experience

Vet tech pet sitting!

Hello! My name is Ally and I am the proud mom of 4 beautiful kitties. I have owned many pets from cats to geckos to hamsters. I love spending time with animals of all kinds! I am a licensed veterinary technician working in a hospital setting full time. Prior to my job at the vet, I interned at a nature center where I cared for snakes, turtles, and birds of prey. I am able to administer oral, topical, and subcutaneous medications and I am comfortable working with anxious and fearful animals. I know what to look for in an animal that isnt feeling well and when to contact your veterinarian. I am also happy to offer in-house services such as nail trims and anal gland expressions at varying fees. You must be able to assist in handling your pet for these services. In certain situations, if your pet becomes too stressed, you may be referred to your veterinarian so that pre-visit calming medication can be prescribed. This ensures not only my safety, but the safety of you and your furry friends as well. This does NOT mean your pet is “bad”, just that some situations are stressful for them.

House Sitting • Feb 20, 2024

Alison is God sent! She watched my two senior dogs for 6 days as I vacationed in Jamaica. She stayed at my house while I was away which I was very grateful for. It feels good to know that your babies are in their familiar surroundings which cuts down the stress on them. Every day she sent pictures and a report of how they were doing. Actually, by day 2 I didn't have a worry in the world. I knew that they we safe and getting lots of love. Alison is also a Vet Tech which made me feel so much better because one of my pups was having health issue which she monitored and kept me updated on. Once again...I wasn't worried! She is kind and has a great peaceful vibe about her. Alison: I want to thank you for being so great and just know that you helped to make my vacation stressless and peaceful. You will always be my choice and hopefully our calendars will align during my next vacation later this year. Sere ay soon!

It was such a pleasure working with Allison. She was prompt and gave our kitties wonderful care when we were out of the country. She was great leaving a short note daily and several pictures of our fur babies. Allison was also very prompt in responding to our email. We would highly recommend Allison for taking care of your fur babies!

I love working with Alison! She’s very thorough, and thoughtful! She always includes plenty of pictures and a brief summary of the check in. It’s a pleasure and huge relief to have this quality care when we go out of town. Thank you, Alison!!

If your pet has any medical concerns such as a history of seizures, heart disease, etc. please let me know in advance so I can know what to expect. If your pet needs daily or situational medications such as anxiety aids, thyroid/heart/diabetes meds, etc., please leave detailed instructions. If your pet is reactive/fear aggressive/has specific things that they do not like, please let me know so I can help them to feel as safe and comfortable as possible. I am more than willing to meet you and your reactive pet multiple times before the booking if necessary!
