Cats & dogs w/ special medical need
Pet care experience
I have worked in the Atlanta veterinary industry since 2005 from nursing to management, I enjoy all the hands on loving aspects of the industry most. I have recently relocated to Jacksonville due to the need to assist my aging and ailing parents. I primarily work with, but am not limited to, cats and dogs. I offer skilled sitting to families with fur babies and in particular to those with pets needing a bit more special care (partial paralysis, diabetic, renal failure, aggression, etc.) As a youth I started volunteering at a local vet hospital and pet sitting for my neighbors' dogs. I have since owned or cared for cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, iguanas, and the occasional bird. I've even worked a semester with guinea fowl, cattle, and goats during my life and undergraduate career. I will be your pet's favorite "Auntie"!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
While my cats are covered with the appropriate core vaccines, I prefer to have some degrees of separation from guests. Pets in my home will be walked and fed before I leave the home and upon my return. I live 6 mins from my job and I go home every day on my lunch breaks as well.
Information Asha J. would like to know about your pet
If your pet(s) has any quirks, favorite things, and most importantly any special needs -please indicate what those are and how you prevent or treat them normally. I ask that you leave an emergency contact with me in the event that you cannot be reached. Additionally that you notify your vet of me as your pet's caretaker. Also I ask that you leave an authorized prepaid debit card in a sealed envelope for emergent veterinary care along with a note giving me permission to make care decisions in the event you cannot be reached. I ideally like to do at least 1 home visit meet and greet with all my new families prior to starting a sit in order for your pet to know who I am and get comfortable with me being in their spaces.
A typical day
After work I frequently walk 2 miles by the Riverside off Kingsley as the sun sets. I am fond of keeping things relaxing and enjoyable.

Availability
I make every reasonable accommodation to cater to a pet's need(s) for attention and relief. I am a runner and will happily wear out your little athlete if you so desire. I work in a Veterinary hospital currently and am often times permitted to bring my pets/charges with me. I am up during the early AM/late PM to exercise several times a week.
