Experienced Veterinary Technician
Pet care experience
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.
Reviews
Kelly is a superstar sitter! Highly recommended. She continues to provide excellent care for our pets.
Kelly is so wonderful to our pets. She always gives us peace of mind while we are away! Kelly also brought in our packages and pulled the trash bin up from the curb - so thoughtful and always goes the extra mile.
Kelly is a great sitter! She is super attentive to our pets and lets and let us know if there is anything might be concerning. We love her photos and our cats love to spend time with her too.
I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional care provided to our cat during our recent trip. Her genuine affection for felines was evident in every interaction. Not only she attend to my cat's needs with diligence, but she also showered them with extra love and playtime. She even took daily pictures of them. She definitely went the extra mile every single day. Knowing my cats were in such nurturing hands allowed me to relax and enjoy my time away. I highly recommend her to fellow cat owners. In my opinion, her personalized touch and genuine care make her an outstanding choice for feline companionship.
