I treat pets with utmost love and respect. With extensive experience in various settings, including shelters and various high-stress environments, I'm fluent in canine and feline body language. I can handle shy and fearful dogs and cats, rowdy/jumpy/mouthy dogs, and any animals that just need a little work on their manners. I can administer oral, topical, and injectable medications for dogs and cats. I will send regular photos! I prioritize a safe and enriching environment for your companions. My commitment extends to treating each pet as if they were my own, employing positive reinforcement training methods without any use of physical force. Drawing from extensive experience, I can care for both lively puppies and wise senior dogs. Whether it's the boundless energy of a pup or the gentle attention required by a senior companion, rest assured your furry friend will receive personalized care that caters to their unique needs. Being a devoted volunteer at the Humane Society, I actively contribute to the health and well-being of animals through clinic assistance, including vaccines, treatments, and surgery preparation and recovery. Previously, I've also volunteered as a dog and cat matchmaker, a dog walker, and a kitten and puppy foster parent. Furthermore, my experience extends to small animals, including rabbits, hamsters, hedgehogs, gerbils, reptiles, fish, and more. Your pet's well-being and happiness are my top priorities, and I look forward to forming a special bond with each furry friend in my care!
