Experienced, Veterinary Assistant

Pet care experience

I have a veterinary assistant certificate, I worked as a veterinary assistant for 1 year at a Veterinarian's office. The last 4 1/2 years I worked as a veterinary receptionist in a Veterinarian's office. Currently I visit my daughter's 2 dogs daily to let them out, make sure they have water and visit with them. I have also done cat sitting for my friend's 2 cats, cleaned litter box, visited 2 times daily. I've had senior dogs myself that required medication and IV treatment which I did myself.

Thank you Catherine for taking care of my little Chloé during a family trip. Catherine is a highly reliable person, as well as her husband and we definitely recommend them to other dog owners. During this stay I received plenty of pictures and saw my dog comfortable with them. When I came to pick her up she looked happy in Catherine's home.

Cathy is an incredibly loving caretaker! We picked up a happy, well adjusted dog on our return from our trip. Her attention to details while we were away was so reassuring. A great choice in dog care!

We were going on a weekend trip and looking for someone local near the venue to look after Pluto. We were very anxious to leave Pluto behind with anyone. However, Cathy was amazing with Pluto. Not only she took Pluto in and made him comfortable, but also accommodated us on a very short notice for additional time we needed. This was the best experience and Pluto loved it. I would leave Pluto with them anytime. Thank you Cathy!!!
