Vet Tech/Animal Shelter Experience

Pet care experience

Hello, my name is Kristen! I recently graduated from Central Michigan University and just moved to Troy! I’ve worked as a vet assistant in a veterinary clinic and currently work as an Animal Care Technician at an animal shelter. I've had pets my whole life (dogs, fish, hamsters, birds, a chinchilla) and currently have a chinchilla and a dog. Throughout my life, I have always had a strong connection with animals and a passion for taking care of them! I look forward to treating your pets like kings/queens! :) I am happy to also be a pet sitter for any non-conventional pets, such as chinchillas, rabbits, guinea pigs, sugar gliders, etc. I am also happy to take care of animals with any special medical needs.

Kristen was fantastic! Very good communication during the entire stay. She sent updates and pictures every day and I was surprised at how quickly my cat came to enjoy spending time with her. Will definitely use her again!

I give Kristen a 100! She was amazing, sent pictures of our baby girl everyday! She also followed up with a “I’d love to watch her again “ Camila was a happy girl when we got home! Thank you Kristen ❤️

Currently only able to do drop-ins at a clients home. Might be able to offer more in the future, but currently living in an apartment and wouldn’t have space to care for pets in my home.

Information Kristen V. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed or species preferences whatsoever! Before sitting a pet, I would like to know any information concerning their health and how I can make them as comfortable as possible. I accept animals with any health problems as long as I'm properly shown what they need and how to provide them with the best care possible!

A typical day

I am able to do whatever your pet prefers! Whether they are shy and reserved or a little more outgoing, I can adjust my activities depending on their needs/personality.
