Pet care experience

Registered Veterinary Technician with over 20 years in the veterinary field. Have been pet sitting in Indianapolis since 2007! I have a lot of experience with special needs pets, and can administer medications. Also a licensed canine massage therapist. I work out of my house flipping furniture I am available early mornings, evenings and weekends, and overnights. I am very flexible, but also can accommodate long term set schedules. I live in an apartment that backs up to the woods, there is also a fenced in dog park on the complex grounds, and a walking trail on Eagle Creek that I frequent.
