Disponibilité
I work Tuesday–Friday and am generally available after 6 PM on those days. I have much greater flexibility Saturday through Monday for walks, drop-ins, and pet care. I’m also open to discussing scheduling needs and can sometimes adjust when possible.

Sécurité, confiance et environnement
When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is always their safety, comfort, and maintaining their normal routine. I take time to follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and any special medical or behavioral notes. With over five years of experience as a veterinary technician, I am comfortable recognizing early signs of stress, illness, or medical concern and responding appropriately. I also have extensive experience handling pets of all temperaments, including anxious, shy, senior, and high-energy animals. I always approach pets calmly and respectfully, allowing them to set the pace of interaction so they feel safe and secure. I prioritize positive reinforcement, gentle handling, and consistency to reduce stress while their owners are away. In a client’s home, I treat the space with the same respect I would my own—keeping things clean, secure, and exactly as I found them. I also provide updates so owners can feel confident and informed while they are away.
Informations que Caitlin C. aimerait connaître au sujet de votre animal domestique
With my extensive veterinary knowledge, I am comfortable caring for pets with any kind of needs. Whether that be medical or physical, I can adapt to whatever the client and pet needs. If information regarding special needs/care is available before hand then that is best but I understand that situations happen so it is definitely not a requirement for my care.
Une journée type
A typical day caring for pets depends on their individual needs, routine, and energy level. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely to keep their schedule consistent and stress-free. For dogs, this may include walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of attention and companionship. I enjoy incorporating mental stimulation such as sniff walks, basic training reinforcement, and enrichment games when appropriate. For cats, I focus on maintaining their normal routine with feeding, litter box care, playtime if they’re interested, and calm companionship. I understand that many cats prefer space and quiet interaction, so I always let them set the tone. With my veterinary technician background, I also keep a close eye on behavior, appetite, and overall health throughout each visit to ensure pets are comfortable and doing well while their owners are away.

Expérience en matière de services dédiés aux animaux de compagnie
Hi, I’m Mali! I’ve been caring for animals since I was 11 years old, starting with my own dog, Rajah, who is now a happy 15-year-old senior. I have trained both Rajah and my younger dog, Ripley, as service dogs, giving me extensive hands-on experience with training, behavior, and enrichment. My love for animals extends beyond my own pets. Growing up, I helped care for animals on a farm and even started a small neighborhood grooming service with a friend. Today, I share my home with Ripley and two cats, and animals continue to be at the center of my life. Professionally, I have over five years of experience as a veterinary technician, including four years in emergency medicine. I currently work as a lead veterinary technician in a surgical unit, where I care for patients before, during, and after procedures. This background allows me to confidently care for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. I am also enrolled in Penn Foster’s Dog Trainer Program and am working toward becoming a certified dog trainer. My goal is to provide every pet with safe, compassionate, and knowledgeable care while giving their owners peace of mind.
