Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs of all shapes and sizes, but for the past 18 years I have taken a fancy to Pomeranians. I have four Poms, a rescue Chihuahua, and a cat who range in age from 8 to 12+. I have taken Veterinary Assistant and Technician classes, and I have experience in pet sitting as well as caring for pets, young and senior alike, with ailments that range from Collapsing Trachea, Epilepsy, Small Airway Disease, stage four Heart murmur and Degenerative Valve Disease, so I have hands on experience in administering medications in many forms. Now that I got that out of the way, the best part is that I’m home (very nearly) full time, which means I’m always at the ready to make new friends!

Clyde seemed happy and fed with clean litter when I returned - I am not entirely sure where you dumped the food cans as I didn’t see any in the trash can but nonetheless Clyde seemed happy and fed

Athena always takes such great care of our cats, and puts in great little touches like submitting photos every visit and tidying up a little bit for us. We’re so grateful for her!!
