Highlights
Pet care experience
Former kennel tech and volunteer
I have worked as a kennel tech at a local veterinarian/boarding facility, where I worked with everything from cats to puppies to elderly dogs, small dogs, large dogs, and everything in between. I spent multiple years volunteering at the Richmond SPCA and have received training both there and at my kennel tech job on cat and dog body language, handling, bathing, nail trims, and medication administration (oral, ear, nasal, and eye). I have worked in the past with large, reactive dogs and am familiar with stress indicators. I am able to provide additional care to sick and special needs pets and also have experience with keeping small mammals (rodents and rabbits), fish, and frogs.
Cat care experience
Genevieve also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Pets
Safety, trust & environment
I am able to feed, bathe, walk, administer medications (oral, ear, nasal, and eye), clean up after, and give nail trims to most pets. For reptiles, birds, amphibians, etc: no live feedings or whole prey (except bugs), please. For liability reasons, I don't give nail trims to aggressive or flighty cats due to risk of scratches or bites.
Ratings and reviews
Miss Genevieve was great. She arrived every day that we booked, sent me photos and communicated with me to update how the kitties were doing. It was extremely comforting having her drop in while we were away. She also retrieved an Amazon package that contained Feliway plug-in for the cats and set that up for them. Truly thankful for her services.
Genevieve did a great job taking care of our shy cat. I would definitely recommend booking with Genevieve.
Great with Roscoe. He’s so happy to see her! Very Reliable.
Did well with the dogs while staying at the house. Would recommend and use again
Genevieve was great with my dog, very professional and wonderful communication!
Wonderful sitter for our 2 dogs. No issues with anything. She was kind and loving to them sent pictures even though I couldn’t receive them until later in the week was very friendly to my mom who was also sitting the dogs. Thank you so much 😊

Schedule
I am a student at William & Mary so I have classes for a few hours a day each weekday, but this is my only job, so I am available most days and times and have quite a bit of flexibility. I am local so commuting usually takes no more than 20 minutes from my apartment or campus.

- Please let me know if your pet has any special needs that need to be accommodated. I can administer any non-injectable medications and have experience with elderly and disabled pets, but I always appreciate advanced notice to get familiar with your pets' unique needs. If your pet has separation anxiety or is nervous around new people, it's no problem, and I would be happy to work with you ahead of your booking to get them familiar with me.
