Veterinary Technician Petsitter

Pet care experience

I am a certified Veterinary Technician, I have been employed at an animal clinic for 9 years. I am able to administer medications, subcutaneous fluids, or injections. I am knowledgeable in basic training. I love all animals and am very capable to take superior care of your furry family members. I work full time (4 days a week) but I am available for overnight in home pet care, medication stops, socialization stops and dog walking. My schedule varies but I am more than happy to try to work in time to take care or your pet. I can do lunch stops in most cases. *MY PRICES MAY BE MORE OR LESS DEPENDING ON SITUATION* We can go over all of this at our meet and greet! Sur charge for outside service radius. I unfortunately do not offer pet care in my own home but am happy to care for your pet in your home where they are most comfortable. I am willing to come to your house to stay overnight with your pets or just for a visit. I am willing to do walks and trips to the dog park.

Kate did a great job taking care of my cat including delivering meds and sent a picture each day. I would definitely use her again.

Kate did a great job of watching over our pups while we went away for a week. She did a great job of keeping in communication with us each day and sending pics for us. I’m sure the pups enjoyed having her stay with them overnight while we were gone. Already rebooking for our next trip:)

Kate is wonderful. I love that she has experience as a Vet Tech and is not intimidated by our reactive dog (who is also a love bug). She responds to texts and calls quickly and provides photo updates of our boys. We will use her again for sure!
