licensed veterinary technician

Pet care experience

I'm a licensed veterinary technician with 10 years of experience and do in home pet sitting in addition to my regular job. I work from 9-5 Monday-Friday. I have experience with all types of cats and dogs and can give any medications needed including injections. I will stay in your home while you're away for pet sitting that way I can take care of your pet and your home so you don't have to worry about a thing while you're away. I love all animals, and have a passion for caring for pets. I know pets feel more comfortable in their own home which is why I pet sit. I have seen how anxious pets get in boarding facilities, and my goal is to avoid that anxiety for you and your pet. I work at wash u medical campus from 9-5pm Monday through Friday. Otherwise I'll be at your home taking care of your pets. I usually walk dogs before work and then right when I get home and again before bed. If they need extra walks or play time in the evenings, that's fine as well. On weekends I can do any play/ walk schedule that works for your pet. I will care for your pet the way that you would. Whether they like long walks and lots of play time or enjoy time just relaxing on the couch.

Lisa always does such a great job with my pup. It’s amazing to be able to travel and know that my dog is being so well cared for and my dog loves spending time with Lisa!!

Lisa did an amazing job caring for my dog who is not only reactive, but also recovering from major knee surgery. This was my first time hiring an in-home pet sitter and I’m so grateful that I picked Lisa, I could not have found anyone better! She handled all of my instructions super well and sent tons of pictures and updates. I will absolutely be hiring Lisa in the future, she is one of very few who I trust to care for my dog. Thank you, Lisa!!

Lisa is fantastic! She cared for our two doggos during a 5 day trip. We were so nervous about leaving them after almost two years of no travel, but Lisa was great. Our dogs clearly loved her instantly and she left our house clean and tidy. She sent pics throughout the trip, and I felt very comfortable leaving our precious pups in her care. I would highly recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and gracious pet sitter. We’ll definitely be hiring her again!

Lisa was fantastic! She sent over some cute photos of the pets while we were away and was easy to communicate with. We would love to have her back in the future!
