I am currently a veterinary technologist student at St Lawrence College. I have successfully completed my first year and will be moving onto my second year in September. During this school year, I was able to learn proper animal restraints, ear cleaning, administration of eye medications, administrations of oral medications, nail trimming, conducting physical examinations and much more on both dogs and cats. I also have experience owning a sick dog. My dog fell ill at the end of April in 2024, she spent 2 weeks in the ICU on oxygen and suffered a blood clot. During this time I was able to experience what it was like owning a sick dog, and how to manage her condition. Her condition became manageable and she’s on lots of medications to help control her arteries. I have learned how to help her, how to keep her calm during recovery and stay on top of medications and the proper time for medications. When I was younger, in grade 8 to 9, I had the opportunity to do shadow days with my veterinarian at the Orleans Veterinary Hospital. During this time, I got to scrub in on surgeries, watch lab tests being performed with the vet techs in the back, and really understand how a veterinary clinic operates. This was when I fell in love with veterinary medicine and truly wanted to make a difference in animals' lives for good :). The services I offer are petting-sitting by house visits to your house (either overnight or drop-ins, for both dogs and cats), dog walking, and I can do nail trims for an extra charge! I work a part time job, working mainly evenings, I unfortunately would like to avoid taking time off for this, and would need to work during my stay at your place, please keep this in mind when contacting me :) ***I WILL NO LONGER BE PROVIDING SERVICES IN THE AREA BEGINNING AUG 28th AS I MOVE BACK TO SCHOOL***
