Veterinarian Nurse Specialist

Pet care experience

Quality Affordable Animal Care Professional with Medical Expertise Available for walks and drop in visits: • 12pm - 11pm on listed days • Unavailable in the mornings If you have a pet who is healthy or sick while your away, I'm your caretaker! My Goal is to give owners peace of mind at a reasonable price. Why choose my servicies over an over priced caretaker: Attendence- I do not just drop by for a few minutes and leave like many pet “care” people. When taking care of your pets, they become a part of my family, and receive the upmost care an animal behavior specialist and emergency veterinary nurse is able to provide. I go above and beyond to help your pets stay stress free while you are at work, or on an extended vacation. Medical Background- I am a veterinary nurse specialist with 1-year general clinical experience, and 3 years emergency care experience. Through massage, pet safe aromatherapy, holistic care combined with medical expertise I guarantee that you pet will be stress free when I stay with them, or they stay with me. I know how to administer cat and dog CPR, and first aid is second nature to me (I have a go bag dedicated specifically to animals that I have at my home, or yours when I am sitting). Basics are covered as well, as I am more than capable to: brush teeth, do light grooming (teeth and coat), administer oral, sub cutaneous, muscular, and intravenous medication, administering shots. If necessary, while you’re away I am able to adequately communicate with your veterinarian, will provide transportation to the clinic or ER hospital, and can act as a pet EMT in transport.  Knowledgeable - I have more than 5 years’ experience sitting for people with small little fluffs to Mastiffs and Danes, as well as horses, and goats. I have owned rodents, cats, dogs, and fish. Educationally, I have a degree in Preventative Health and Wellness. Accountable- I keep a record of what happened each day your dog is with me. Day care pups and extended stays get a daily report card with notes detailing their activity, highs, lows, and interactive behavior. Detail Oriented- I arrive at your home during the meet and greet to go over your pet’s care. During the meeting, we will fill out a questionnaire together that details their routine, habits, medicals conditions, etc. I know photos and videos are important to pet parents as they miss their babies. Because of that multiple pictures and videos will be sent via your chosen form of communication. ALL INCLUSIVE of the services below:  • Clean water daily • Plants watered/ tended to • Caged animals interacted with and fed • Litterbox cleaned daily • Dog poo cleaned up in yard (and of course any accidents) • Mail retrieval • Garbage set out on necessary days • Daily report card detailing behavior and activities • Veterinary nurse care at home, and communication with your veterinarian • Medicine administration • Brushing of teeth and coat (nails at extra $10.00 charge) • Walks • Loves, cuddles, scratchies • Games, music • Maintain cleanliness of home My services and rates: $25.00 - $30.00 + My rates are inexpensive compared to many because I know that while we love our fur babies, $50- $75+ for JUST ONE DOG per day while away on vacation breaks the bank. And that’s just if you have one dog . I intend to break that expensive cycle by giving quality pet care at a fraction of the cost. For one dog my fee is $25.00, and each additional dog is $10.00. Cats are $5.00 per day, and fish, rodents, and other caged pets are $10.00 per week. Horses are 30.00 a day. All pets are created equal as I have no puppy/ kitten fee, no special needs fee, etc. because that’s just ridiculous to charge extra for your pet based on who they are ! Additional options: Nail trimmings $10.00 ($17.00 for aggressive dogs) Bathing $10.00 (a bath will always be given if the pet gets into something unfavorable free of charge, but for an opted bath, there is a charge) Please message me with any questions, or if you would like to possibly book a stay :).I love all animals, and care for them to the upmost degree <3!

Amber was wonderful. She was very responsive and sent us lots of pictures, which we love. She made sure to ask any questions she had right away and our dogs seemed to love her. We would definitely hire Amber again!
