Ivan was a student of mine at Robertson College for a VOTA (Veterinary Office and Technical Assistant) program. He loves animals and has been a keen learner throughout his studies. He did very well academically, and this knowledge will greatly aid him to look after animals. Not only is he very familiar with basic animal care, but he is also able to recognize signs of illness and when to seek further assistance if needed. He would also be comfortable giving medications and basic treatments in a home setting. He is currently studying to be a veterinary technician, which will further aid his medical knowledge for pet health care. Ivan is also very dependable, responsible, hard-working and excellent at working with both people and animals. I would highly recommend Ivan as a dog sitter, and would be very comfortable having him look after my pets and home.
