My formative years began with fish, frogs, bunnies, and cats. About eight years ago, I started more regularly caring for dogs as friends and family added them to their homes. Because I'm used to working with patients and their families as a registered nurse , I feel confident communicating clearly about pet health concerns and observing changes over time. Some cares I am willing to provide include (but are not limited to) administering medications (oral, topical, subcutaneous, or intramuscular), post-surgical care wound monitoring, bandage changes, restricted activity support, vital signs, mobility assistance, and seizure support.
