Good catch — that’s an easy fix and honestly sounds even better for Rover. Here’s the adjusted Rover-friendly version with that clarified: ⸻ Hi! My name is Alyson, and I’ve been caring for animals for most of my life. I started gaining experience in high school through veterinary science courses at a career center, then went on to work in veterinary clinics as both a kennel assistant and a certified veterinary assistant. I’ve worked at the Animal Wellness Center assisting with boarding care and helping with surgical prep, and in 2025–2026 I worked as a Veterinary Assistant in Fishers, Indiana. I had to step away from that role due to unexpected personal circumstances, but my passion for animal care has only grown stronger. In addition to clinic work, I provide in-home pet care through Rover, where I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and stress-free in their own homes. I’m experienced with feeding routines, walking, basic care, and giving lots of attention and reassurance while pet parents are away. I grew up around many cats and dogs throughout my family, not just in my own household, which gave me early, hands-on experience with animals of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m calm, patient, and confident with pets who may be shy, energetic, or need extra reassurance. I currently offer in-home care only, as I don’t have a space to host pets. I’m also beginning my long-term path toward becoming a veterinarian, and I’m excited to continue caring for animals as if they were my own.
