Trustworthy and experienced!

Pet care experience

I worked at Oradell Animal Hospital for over 2 years in the Emergency Room, taking care of the most critical patients in the ICU, along with simple tasks like walking them, feeding them, etc. I recently graduated from college and am officially a New Jersey liscensed Veterinary Technician, along with all of the prior hospital experience! I also worked at a grooming shop for 4 years which including washing, drying, grooming, etc. Since a young age my passion has always been to be surrounded by animals.

Athena was fantastic! She did great with our Old English Sheepdog. On time and plenty of updates throughout the stay. Will definitely be scheduling her again.

Athena was amazing with my puppy! So patient and kind with him when I had to go out of town on an emergency. I would a thousand percent recommend her to anyone who asked!

Athena was great with our dog, Baazi! She provided great care, communicated well and send us lots of pictures and videos. Baazi suffers from a bit of anxiety and Athena quickly put us at ease that he was in good hands.

We met her beforehand, and was immediately sold by how she interacted with our dogs— so caring, sweet, and understanding. During the stay, I was getting constant updates and pictures/videos of them, and they seemed so happy— even my shy one was smiling! And when we picked them up,

Information Athena K. would like to know about your pet

Just let me know if they have any special needs or medicine they need! Nothing will scare me away so no worries if they do need special treatment! I’m also state certified to do so!

A typical day

I love to take them on walks, cuddle them, play with them, etc! It depends on what their normal routine is & what they specifically enjoy!
