Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced ER Veterinary Assistant
With 17 years of experience in veterinary medicine and professional pet care, I bring a unique combination of medical knowledge, animal-handling experience, and genuine compassion to every pet I care for. My experience caring for animals has taken me across the country and overseas, giving me the opportunity to work with many animals, pets, and families. I spent 10 years working in emergency veterinary medicine, so I am comfortable recognizing changes in a pet's condition, obtaining vital signs, and knowing when symptoms require veterinary attention and how soon. I am also experienced and comfortable administering medications of all types, insulin injections, and fluids under the skin, as well as caring for pets with medical or special needs. While I am not a professional pet trainer, I am comfortable working with a wide variety of behaviors and behavioral-training approaches and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and meeting each animal where they are. I know that when pet parents are away, their pets often need a little extra TLC, reassurance, and one-on-one attention. I make every effort to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible—from meals and medications to walks, playtime, rest, and plenty of companionship. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. Most importantly, I believe in open and honest communication. I strive to address questions and concerns before booking whenever possible, so you can feel confident, comfortable, and at ease knowing your pet is in capable hands. Whether your pet needs a long walk, a little extra attention, routine medication, or simply someone to make them feel less lonely while you're away, I would love the opportunity to care for them. ❤️

Safety, trust & environment
Before walking your pet, I will inspect leashes, collars, and harnesses fit appropriately and are safe. I will also be sure to know your pet’s friendliness, anxieties, and reactivities to strangers and other animals. At your home, I will follow your pet’s routines to the best of my ability and your instructions completely. In the case of emergency, I can perform CPR and first aid.
Ratings and reviews
Very communicative and friendly sitter! My cat had trouble with pick up and unfortunately had scratched up my sitters husband. I did notice the sitters pets were around at pickup and wondered if that had contributed to her stress cause I was told they would be separated. Nonetheless my cat came home safe and sitter was very helpful in everything.

Schedule
I am able to accommodate Thursday afternoons - Monday morning bookings. I work full-time as an administrator at a local veterinary hospital and am fortunate to make my own schedule. Prior to booking, I ensure the pet parent and I are aligned with the sitting/walking schedule.
