Highlights
Pet care experience
I'll love your pet like it's my own
I am an animal lover and a passionate advocate of animal welfare. Since 2014 I've volunteered with a local volunteer-run and foster based animal rescue organization and took on the role of Executive Director in 2018. In addition to my volunteer experience I have worked as a veterinary assistant since 2021. I have experience with many different breeds of dogs and cats with varying temperaments. I look forward to learning about your pet's needs and meeting them!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client's home, my approach revolves around three core principles: safety, trust, and the environment. Safety: I prioritize the pet’s physical well-being by following any instructions provided by the owner about their pet’s specific needs (diet, medical conditions, exercise). I ensure the home is pet-proofed by securing hazardous items, checking fences, and managing potential risks like toxic plants or small objects. Enviroment: I respect the pet’s routine and try to maintain a familiar, comfortable environment. Whether it’s following specific feeding times, sticking to their preferred play routines, or offering quiet spaces to relax, I make sure the pet feels safe and secure in their own home. By prioritizing these elements, I can provide a safe and comfortable experience for both the pet and the pet owner.
