Highlights
Pet care experience
Veterinary Assistant -- Available!
I moved to the Kalamazoo area from Tampa, FL, where I worked as a full-time veterinary assistant for several years. Additionally, I have accumulated hundreds of hours volunteering at animal shelters. Between these, I have developed skills that allow me to be comfortable caring for all kinds of animals, and allow me to help those with specific needs, such as medication/fluid administration, first-aid, aggression/anxiousness, puppy/kitten/senior care, etc. I also offer pet-sitting for other types of animals, including hamsters, guinea pigs, bunnies, ducks, lizards, turtles and more. Feel free to reach out with any questions! :)

Safety, trust & environment
It's important to me to be patient and understanding with any animal. I have no issue interacting with animals who may be reactive, anxious, aggressive, or all of the above.
Ratings and reviews
Dominique was absolutely wonderful with our dog while we were away in Italy for two weeks! From the very beginning, she was incredibly communicative, reliable, and kind. Every day, she would text me to let me know she was on her way, and after each walk she sent pictures and an update, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were across the world. It was so obvious from the pictures and updates how happy and comfortable our dog was with her. She was incredibly patient, loving, and affectionate with him, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about him and enjoyed spending time with him. We couldn’t have asked for someone better to care for him while we were away. Dominique was dependable, thoughtful, and truly wonderful with our dog. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be asking her to walk him again!
Dominique did a great job watching my dog Benny. She was thorough with her visit, communicative, super friendly and best of all, she got some of the best photos ever of my fur baby. Would definitely recommend her to anyone in need of pet services!
Dominique does an excellent job! Our cat just adores her and we never have to worry while we are away!
Dominique sends the best photos and is so reliable!! I can tell Margo has the best time with her.
Super nice and communicated well! Took great care of the fur babies.
Dominique was amazing as always! Very responsive, great with the animals, and absolutely goes the extra mile!
