Pet care experience

A child of a veterinarian

Being a child of a veterinarian, i have a life time experience understanding how to understand and take care of a variety of animal especially dogs and cats. I have a lot of patience when it comes to puppies tho I do not have experience in training. But I have experience in specialized senior care. I do have some recorded vet assistant qualifications, I am able to administer many medication up to and including SQ fluids with confidence. It depends on the temper of the animal but I am willing to do basic grooming like nails, basic bathing and brushing. I am not a professional groomer but I have patience, skills and the love to keep animals clean and happy.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I personally live in a small apartment with a cat so I would prefer to work out of clients homes if possible. I think it is important for any animal to feel comfortable, being in their own home would be the most comfortable environment for a pet when the owners are away. If at a clients house, I will follow what the animals personal schedule. For an example, if they get up at 7am every day and go outside to do their business, I will be there at 6:45 to make sure they go out on time. My first priority is the animals comfort and health and I believe that can be achieved with understanding how their life is when the owners are home. Routine is important to animals, even more important for senior animals.

Kira has worked for me as a veterinary assistant for 2 years and has shown herself to be dependable and very hard working. She truly enjoys being with pets and is capable and compassionate with their care. She has a good, practical skill set with animals including giving subcutaneous fluids, insulin injections and giving of oral medications.

Schedule

I am an undergraduate student who is balancing classes and a part time job. Night time, mid day if possible, and morning check ups are going to be a constant schedule and easy for me to get to without much negotiation. Longer to overnight stays are possible but I have to disclose that it would be difficult to stay 100% with the animal especially during the week.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Kira can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Please let me know about any medications, special things they need or even what they like. If the animal is special needs or has any medications please let me know the exact amount and how often they need their meds or even special medical care. I like to know the animals life schedule to keep them healthy and happy. If its important to the animal, its important to me.
