Veterinary Technician for 17 years

Pet care experience

I personally own 4 dogs and 2 cats ranging from a 10 pound Dachshund to an 87 pound Labrador. Each of them take daily medications for various health issues. I am known to throw the tennis ball until I get tennis elbow due to the energy level of my Border Collie. I am an avid hicker and jump on any opportunity I can enjoy a walk (or climb these hills) with a furry companion. I have a 17 year history and experience as a veterinary technician and graduated Oklahoma State University with a BS in Animal Science. Places of employment range from private practice in DFW and Houston, mixed animal in Oklahoma, specialty veterinary hospitals, and emergency medicine in Texas. I am an Army veteran, which changed my career path from veterinary medicine to human health and wellness. I work from home as a personal trainer, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule fit to meet various needs and requirements of clients and their pets. I am currently studying for a second BS in Nutrition and my Masters in Public Health Education. I schedule my days around the pets I am currently caring for and looking after. I take pride in myself with organization, communication, and attention to details. At this time, I do not offer in-home daycare or pet sitting. I am delighted to care for your pet where they feel most comfortable and confident, your home.

Holly was amazing! We were out of town for 12 days and Holly came to our house three times to care for our 3 cats AND two goats! Her journals for the visits were so thorough and detailed and the pics eased our minds while away from home. When we returned everything was clean as could be and all the animals happy and healthy. We will definitely be using Holly again!

What peace of mind! What caring and wonderful communication! Holly was an incredible pet sitter! It was our first time away in 3 years and we relaxed after we saw the care that Holly gave our crazy cats. The daily diary and photos really made us feel that we had found our perfect pet sitter.

Holly is the best! I am so grateful that we found her! We are able to relax when we’re out of town, knowing that our babies are in the best hands.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in their home, I prefer to stay as close to their usual routine as possible. I aim to be within an hour of their normal meal times and take my time in the evening visits to imitate a bed time routine and final potty break. It is guaranteed that I will read a book aloud to your pet while we settle down during the night time visit.

Information Holly H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet needs special accommodations so we can plan together accordingly. I do not have breed or age preferences as I have worked extensively with all types. If your pet is still being house trained or obedience’s trained, please inform me so we can discuss the current routine.

A typical day

I enjoy challenging the feline and canine minds by playing physically and mentally stimulating games. Felines enjoy observing, plotting, stalking and making a move. There are lots of new daily smells around their home and in their neighborhood so taking walks and playing fetch are always favorites for canines. I am a huge fan of giving chin, behind the ear, and back scratches. Cuddles aren’t for everyone but I will happily comply with a pets desire to cuddle. I am truly honored when they provide me the privilege of giving belly rubs or showing off their favorite toy.

I work from home, as a full time small business owner, and full time student studying for my second B.S. and Master degree programs. This freedom allows my schedule to be modified to accommodate the needs of the pets in my care to best mirror their daily routines.
