Pet care experience

Experienced Veterinary Technician

I have been working with cats and dogs for over 20 years. I started at a kennel called The Cat Chalet, then I worked as a Veterinary Technician for 15 years. As of October 2021, I am a full time pet sitter. I am very experienced and comfortable with the handling of scared, fearful or aggressive animals. I gain trust with patience, positive reinforcement, stress and fear free handling. I have years of experience giving medications by mouth, ears, eyes, and topical treatments. I am able to give insulin injections and subcutaneous fluids, or IM injections. Nothing makes me squeamish - blood, vomit, diarrhea, or needles! I have worked in both veterinary general practice and emergency medicine. My resume also includes a cat only boarding kennel, assisting two professional groomers, and kennel manager at an animal hospital. I am a certified crazy cat lady with two special needs cats of my own.

Safety, trust & environment

I am familiar with most veterinary medications and diets, what they are used for as well as any side effects. I am knowledgeable in canine and feline diseases and illnesses, and that these animals require specific special attention. I monitor eating and bathroom habits, while always staying in touch regarding any issues or concerns.

Kelly did a fantastic job with our two cats. 😊 She went above and beyond in keeping the cat area tidy. I would highly recommend her.

Kelly rocks! She is thoughtful and very easy to work with. Kelly took great care of our energetic young cat and made sure our kitty got the stimulation and play time she needs. Daily updates with photos let us know our cat was healthy and happy. We look forward to being able to hire Kelly again when we travel, so we can feel at ease and enjoy our trip!

Kelly is always so reliable, communicative and thoughtful. She goes the extra mile to make sure our cats are happy and even put our untimely food delivery package in the fridge for us. Our cats love her and she always takes the best photos to send to us!

Kelly was super helpful and patient with my cat (who is very anxious and spicy when frightened). This was the first time I had left my cat completely alone so I was nervous at first. But Kelly took very good care of her and reassured me with photos/ details during the visits. It was a relief to know my kitty was in such good hands!! 🙂

Kelly was fantastic and I would absolutely ask her to take care of our cats again! I loved that she has a vet tech background, and our cats loved her! She sent regular updates, amazing pictures (I had no idea my cats would allow such great photos 🤣), and I just felt comfortable the entire time we were away that the cats were well cared for. She was flexible and reliable. So thankful to have found Kelly for our petsitting needs!
