Pet care experience

Animal behavior degree!

I currently work as a veterinary assistant at a 24/7 ER hospital in the area. I have worked/interned at Petsmart and the Buffalo Zoo. I have graduated college with degree in animal behavior, ecology, and conservation and a minor in zoo biology. I have pet sat for many families and taken care of dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, birds, and reptiles. My responsibilities for these animals included giving flea and tick medication, general medication, feedings, playtime, multiple walks a day, cleaning up the yard, keeping good water levels, etc. I also have a fear free shelter certification.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When owners leave their pet with me I understand that it is all about trust that their pet will be in good hands. Many owners like me to come over prior to so I can meet their pet and get specific directions for caring for them as well as seeing where everything is. Every owner will have specific directions for how to take care of their pet and I make sure to follow those directions and consult them with any questions that might come up.I will never attempt to take care of a pet I am not comfortable with taking on and will always ask for clarification about how to do something I don’t know how to do. I also will send updates and photos as often as the owners would like so they have assurance that their pet is happy and healthy!

This was our second time booking Ally, she did a great job of taking care of our four boys during a weekend out of town! She was very attentive to our instructions and cleaned up all of the dishes so well that they were just like we left them!

Ally did a great job at checking in on our four boys during a long weekend trip! She had no issue administering a twice daily pill for one of our boys and made sure that their boxes were clean and water was abundant the whole time. She followed my extra-thorough instructions well and kept everybody happy in our absence!
