Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal Lover & Licensed Vet Tech 🤍
I’ve had a love for animals ever since I can remember, and have taken care of them for countless years. Professionally, I have worked in pet boarding kennels since 2016, doing everything from feeding to walking to bathing. I am also a 2021 graduate of the Veterinary Health Technology program at the University of Tennessee at Martin which gives me not only pet experience, but also medical knowledge in case of any emergencies. I have worked as a licensed veterinary medical technician (LVMT) in both general practice clinic and in an ER/ICU. Upon request, I can show you my LVMT licensing documents in person at drop off. I am CPR certified. My dream is to ensure that every dog, cat, or other pet is happy and healthy, and I would love to start with yours!

Wonderful experience as always!! Thank you!!
Thank you Kearsten for all your help with Tallulah and all the extras you did while visiting. She and Frenchy will miss you! 💕. You have been a blessing and provided peace of mind while I was at work knowing the fur babies were in excellent care! Wishing all the joy and blessings in your time off!
Kearsten did a most wonderful job of making both me and my cats feel comfortable and safe. Cannot recommend highly enough!
Kearsten has been great every time we need her. It is such peace of mind when we travel knowing she will see after our fur babies. We appreciate her so much.
Kearsten is very dependable and does a great job! I don’t worry about my fur babies when I’m gone. She is very communicative and gives lots of pics.
Thank you for your patience in helping Tallulah adjust last week while we were working!

Schedule
👋🏼I have been a full time vet tech at a veterinary emergency hospital, but since have had kids (2023 & 2026) and am currently a stay at home mom, so I am available almost all hours of the day to care for your fur babies! 🩺Since I am a licensed veterinary technician graduated from an AVMA approved veterinary program, I have extensive knowledge regarding pets and their health. I am more than comfortable with senior pets, or pets with specials needs and ones that may have heart, respiratory, or other illnesses. 💉I also have extensive experience administering medications of all kinds. Injectable, oral, topical, you name it!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I own a house with a large, fenced in backyard for potty breaks and playtime! There is also a screened in patio. Yard time will ALWAYS be supervised. We do have backyard chickens, but they have their own enclosure. Our house also has a split level basement, in which we have converted to space for the cats. Every area of our house is pet friendly. I love all shapes, sizes, and breeds of dogs and cats, but unfortunately I feel since my child is younger and sometimes tags along for visits, I can not accommodate XL dogs or some intact males at the moment, for safety.
Pets
A typical day
We always love yard time! There is plenty of space to run, play, fetch, and explore! My house is in a private, quiet neighborhood perfect for walks. There is also substantial space indoors to play and fetch as well, if your little one prefers indoor play. I’m a strong believer in not only physical play, but mental play as well. If your pet is more energetic, mental play does wonders for them. This usually means giving them a type of treat “puzzle”, which can be approved or declined by you. The puzzle keeps them occupied for longer periods of time, and helps stimulate their cognitive function. This is available for both dogs and cats. I would require you to bring/purchase your own puzzle and treats, or I can use mine (throughly washed and sterilized) for an extra $5 per puzzle.I also provide “grooming” services which would include bath, brush, ear cleaning, and a nail trim (if your pet is willing). If your pet is showing signs of fear or stress I will not force them.
