Love of all things animals!
Pet care experience
Throughout my life I have had a plethora of dogs, cats, and small critters! I have always been an advocate for animal rights and believe that pets ARE family and should be treated as such. I have dog sat for friends, family and neighbors throughout my life and I have also worked at a doggy daycare/boarding facility for three years which was an amazing opportunity. I currently work in a veterinary clinic as a veterinary assistant and kennel technician. I have experience with trimming nails and giving baths-even on the most anxious dogs! I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds and temperaments! I have four of my own fur kids (Two dogs, a gecko and a chinchilla!) who eat better than I do most days and are as spoiled as can be! Willing to work with any feeding arrangements, I have worked with raw food, canned food, cooked food, fridge food and of course kibble. I am very well versed in administering all types of medications, insulin included. I used to offer in home boarding as well as house sitting but with having two small children in my household I am no longer able to provide those services but I would still love to do drop-ins for you!
Reviews
Kisha was great! Odin was happy and healthy when we came home. I feel very confident he was well cared for while we were gone.
Kisha is the best. She has been caring for my large assortment of furry friends for more than four years. She is always there when I need her, even at the last minute or for an extended time. She feeds, waters, cuddles and snuggles...and even keeps the "oopsies" pad area clean and shiny. She sends me daily vids or pictures of each of my furries. The biggest thing, though, is this: My dogs are leery of folks but THEY LOVE KISHA! They just adore her. To me, that says more than any human review!🙂

Kisha is the best!! I have hired her several times and for long periods. My dogs love her...all six of them! She even checks on my chickens. I have no worries about my fur babies when Kisha is caring for them. She is worth every.penny!!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am very flexible with what I have to offer during drop in bookings. We will go over the usual routine that you have at home and I will try to mimic that as closely as I can and I am able to do several drop-ins per day!
Information Kisha J. would like to know about your pet
Are they okay with strangers? Are they allergic to anything? Are they up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick and heart worm preventative? (In case we were to go to the dog park or if I were to take them walking) Are they good with other dogs? Do they have any aggressive tendencies?
A typical day
Weather permitting of course, I love to get in daily playtime outside with the more active dogs. If your dog is a daily walker or a dog park frequenter, I would love to provide exercise for them that way as well!

As stated before, I currently work full time at a vet clinic. My day begins at 7:30 AM and ends at 4:30 PM. I have a one hour lunch break as well that I can do a potty break during! I am able and willing to work with your routine and schedule as much as possible.
