an animal loving vet tech

Pet care experience

Hello!! I am a vet tech and vet med student who is seeking clients to work. I chose to work with Rover because I love animals, I have experience in handling and caring for animals (especially my patients from my place of work), and I want to make sure everyone’s pets are properly cared for when their owners are away! I have previous vet tech experience at a few animal hospitals here in Jacksonville Florida. I also used to be a at home care giver over 12 years ago therefore, I do have plenty of healthcare experience! I would love to care for your animals and make sure they are having their needs met!! I can help administer any medication needed, walk dogs, bathing, nail trimmings, feedings, and whatever else is requested such as any wound care. Please bring toys and / or a blanket, food bowls, crates, medication, etc.

She was able to come same day and stayed with my lonely pups for 30 minutes! They usually do not stay home alone during the week, and Ari was able to give them some TLC in the middle of the day.

Ari was absolutely the best! She sent tons of pictures and updates of my dog playing, going on runs, and trips to the park. She loved on my dog as if it was her own. I couldn’t recommend her enough!

Ari was great! She responded quickly to the initial booking request and was able to take on a request for the same day after another Rover cancelled on me last-minute. She picked up my two boxers and took great care of them, sending multiple picture updates throughout their stay. Would recommend and would use again!

We had a wonderful experience with Ari and her husband while they watched our 2 month old Bouvier puppy. Ari was very responsive and made the scheduled meeting very easy. I will definitely be using Ari again. She is very kind and gentle with her doggy care. It was a great experience. I would highly recommend her.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a two bedroom apartment but it’s a little spacey and enough for me to care for the animals I have and extras if needed. I do have pets such as 4 cats, a dog which she will be kept in my room away from your animal, a bearded dragon who is in his enclosure, and a hognose snake! I love all types of animals and I always make sure to properly care for them all. I also have a baby at home! ❤️ I can easily crate your dog if needed, I have a large crate in my home as well but it is preferred if you bring your own crate / dog cage as well.

I am currently working part time a due to being in school and trying to finish my bachelors program. I will have plenty of time to take care of your pet whilst I’m at home with my little ones! I am available for pet sitting on weekends and Weekdays from 9am-7pm. Let me explain my pricing: 1.) I guarantee your pets safety. As a vet tech with over 10 years of experience, your animal will be safe with me and away from any catastrophic event that can happen at a daycare center for animals (such as dog bites etc which can be caused by other animals in the play yard OR if God forbid, a kennel breaks). 2.) I offer quality care for your pet 3.) My history and experience as a vet tech and animal care worker 4.) I have a dog park here where they only allow a few dogs at a time to play and I only go with them when there are no other animals present. 5.) I offer FREE nail trimmings for new clients🥰 6.) I will follow each and every guideline you provide and want for your pet. 7.) I am very passionate in what I do and I promise to love your babies as if they are my babies!! 🩵 They will receive extra attention from me. 8.) I can always travel to you instead if you don’t plan to board at my home. 9.) There is a slight increase in price with puppies / kittens due to them possibly having accidents in my house and needing extra care than other animals. 🥰 10.) I am experienced in critical care therefore, animals who need medical care will be properly taken care of, as I am trained for it! 11.) I will give you a 1 hour grace period to show up after the scheduled time but if it’s past the hour, a cancellation fee will be charged. I hope this helps. 😃
