Pet care experience

Professional Pet Care

I have professional pet care experience in many roles, serving all types of species and breed. I’ve worked in: Corporate dog grooming Doggy Daycares Open intake animal shelter Vet assistant - ( currently ) I’m open to building relationships with pets who might be behaviorally complex and can be a bit tricky to handle in collaboration with the pet parents. I’m comfortable in almost any pet you might need care for, any age is fine. I have some experience feeding neonate kittens. The only pets I can’t offer care to are any fully aquatic critters or amphibians ( lack of experience ) For puppies I can offer desensitization to grooming Based in Queens and open to bookings throughout areas of Queens, Brooklyn, and Manhattan.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for the pets as I do in my professions, I listen to all and any instructions and rules set by the pet parent(s) and use my understanding of pet behavior to ensure a safe environment or walk for the pet. If the pet has any allergies then I’ll ensure to avoid bringing/consuming/interacting with said allergen a day ahead of seeing the pet in question. If the pet is reactive on walks then I prepare myself with treats and toys and keep a safe distances from possible triggers. For walks, by default I don’t allow pets in my care to interact with other animals outside unless the pet parent is ok with allowing it. For home visits or house sitting I don’t mind hand playing with pets, however some pet parents prefer no roughhousing or only engaging in play with pet toys. I’m perfectly fine with either choice in husbandry. Should a bite incident occur I will notify you and continue to care for your pet as safely as the situation allows. While a bite is never a fun experience a level 1 - 3 bite incident won’t disrupt the current care appointment you had originally booked.
