Auburn Vet Med Student c/o 2026

I have a small fenced in side yard. I can cater to your needs as far as care for your pet - I have room to keep the animals separate and am happy to accommodate for crates/beds. As a vet student I’ve worked in the field for many years and feel confident I can give your pet the best care out there!

Calista took wonderful care of my very anxious and careful kitty. She was patient with her and gave me daily pictures and updates. It gave me a very good piece of mind. Will definitely try to book her again for any future travel.

Calista was a perfect pet sitter and I would definitely book with her again in the future! Responsive, responsible, and was flexible in coordinating a meet and greet with my pup as well as the pick up/drop off logistics. She lives in a dog friendly place with yard space and it just really makes a huge difference that she is a vet student and has experience with animals
