Pet care experience

My passion for excellent care.

Hi, My name is Christina I am a certified vet assistant with 10 years experience in veterinary care for both cats and dogs. My services include:: walking,boarding, daycare and transportation to vet appointment. I am certified to administer both oral and SQ medications, SQ IV fluid replacement, glucose monitoring and care of special needs pets. I am pet CPR and first aid certified. I treat your pets as if they were mine with lots of TLC and snuggles. I provide potty breaks every 2-4 hours and walks twice a day. There is a medium size temporary fence in my backyard for the pets playtime. For care of your cats if would come to your home to feed, clean litter boxes and playtime. The pets are allowed on the furniture and to sleep with me if if so inclined. My career of choice was RN nursing at Duke University Hospital for 32 years. I do however require a meet and greet prior to any service request. I have a 9 years old lap retriever who has severe arthritis in his hind legs I do welcome both kittens and puppies. I am particularly skilled in the care of special needs pets and have taken additional courses in veterinary nutrition and message. I text pet parents every other day and send photos of the their furry babies.
