With over 10 years of personal and professional experience, I offer a level of care rooted in deep medical knowledge and hands-on expertise. I am CPR and first aid certified -My background includes working as a doggy daycare and kennel attendant, and I am currently a Veterinary Technician. These roles have equipped me with the skills to handle complex needs. -Anything from administering oral medications and injections to managing post-surgical recovery and providing compassionate care for hospice and special needs pets. -I am highly proficient in both canine and feline behavior, ensuring a safe, low-stress environment for every guest. - My professional training allows me to communicate effectively with clients about their pet's health and provide a level of clinical observation that goes beyond standard pet sitting. -Whether your pet requires active socialization or specialized medical attention, they will receive professional-grade care, love, cuddles, and attention. In my years of experience, I have taken care of many different types of animals and their various needs. Anything from cats and dogs to some exotic animals. Even with pregnant animals. I have taken care of cats, dogs, bearded dragons, rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters. Sheep, and goats

I have worked with Dakota for over a year and he loves animals and takes such great care of them! We are both vet assistants and I wouldn’t trust anyone more with others and even my own pets. He is always kind and caring.

Schedule

"I am currently a full-time Veterinary Assistant/Technician, working at a local clinic Monday through Friday. My typical shift is 8 to 10 hours, but I finish early every Friday, and my weekends are completely open for dedicated pet care. Because of my professional background, I am happy to accommodate drop-in visits or in-home pet sitting around my clinic schedule. I am committed to providing your fur babies with expert medical-grade attention and will always do my best to accommodate your specific needs."
