Vet. Tech. for your pet's care

Pet care experience

I am currently a Registered Veterinarian Technician at an emergency clinic. I have extended experience with animal care and am very knowledgeable in the medical feild. I am CPR certified and also a certified Fear free professional as well as Feline Friendly Certified and will be sure to never make your pets feel uncomfortable. I do work overnights Thursday-Saturday 8pm-8am. Although I do work a full-time job, I am very flexible with my time. My significant other Robert helps me with visits and house sitting if the pet can’t be left alone overnight. I will follow all instructions for the care of your animals I am sure to never overlook any care. I love to care for animals and will love them like they are my own.

Just relocated to KC and needed a sitter on short notice. Elyssia was amazing with my 4 pups. I was very excited to find a vet tech available as 1 of my pups needed an injection while i was out of town. My pups loved her and were so tired from play when i got home. I would definitely use her again in the future.

If I could give zero I would…. Thank the lord for cameras because I guarantee you Elyssia is neglecting your pups without you knowing. We had Elyssia stay with our 4 dogs because they cannot be left alone which was highly stressed to her. I get a notification on my phone from my cameras and she had locked our dogs in the basement and left the house. After calling her saying how that is not okay, she went back to the house that she left unlocked and let the dogs out. There was pee everywhere, chewed trim, and part of a chair was chewed. It was not a good experience to say the least.

Elyssia is a wonderful animal companion and caregiver. We were transparent with her about our pup being quite elderly, though spunky, and we have been managing so health needs. Elyssia was not hesitant and made sure our girl got all the attention, food, play and love she needed for our 2 week absence. We received daily text updates and fun pics. Our vacation was truly restful because we knew Elyssia had the experience and compassion to problem solve whatever came up. We also have built a strong trust of Elyssia is our home. She called herself the most boring young person (doesn’t party or drink) but you’ll find that she’s a bright person with a sparkle in her quick smile. She’s not boring she’s just a bit of a gentle old soul that appreciates the simple things.

Safety, trust & environment

I respect your home and will clean up any messes made. I will make the bed if I stay overnight, keep dishes clean, pick up toys, and sweep/vacuum. I make sure your pets environment is comfortable for them and feel as if they’re loved just as if you were there.

Information Elyssia Y. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know how they are with the initial meeting of a stranger: timid, shy, fearful, no care in the world. Are they food motivated? Are they up to date on vaccines? Are they friendly with other animals?

A typical day

I will mentally stimulate your dog with basic commands such as "sit" prior to exiting the home for a walk. Other than playing with your pet, I think building a bond is the most important. Being able to understand their behavior and body language.
