I am a Vet tech student

Pet care experience

I have worked for two zoos, a groomer and 3 vet clinics as a vet assistant or technician. I have training in senior dog care and animal training as well as vaccine and injection experience. I'm going to school to become a veterinary technician and I have petsitted many dogs, cats, herps and small mammals. I'm strict with lists and rules and I love playing and giving treats. All animals are my friends including your tarantula! I even have experience with unruly and growly animals as well. (And I have the scars to prove it) I love working with animals and I love working with pet parents. I have a large reference sheet with people who swear by me and know that their furry (or scalie) family member is in caring, professional, loving hands. If you're looking for a trusted, well rounded, experienced (almost) vet assistant then I'm your sitter!!

Kiki is one of our go-to sitters and always provides us with updates on our pets throughout the booking. I would definitely recommend Kiki.

Kiki is wonderful. I highly recommend her. We have an older rescue cat that hides until she feels safe. With Kiki, she warmed up right away. Kiki communicates very well, is reliable, and really cares about animals. She has absolutely chosen the most fitting career path as a Vet Tech! I feel lucky to have found her.

Kiki stayed with our dog, Rascal, for 5 days. She texted us pictures several times, and kept us apprised of his behavior. Rascal can be a handful, but Kiki got along with him great. It was obvious when we got home that he was crazy about her. We have already booked her for our next vacation of two weeks. I highly recommend her.
