Pet care experience

Caring Veterinary Technician

Hi! I’m Maddie, a caring and trustworthy veterinary technician with 12 years of experience in veterinary medicine. I currently working as a veterinary technician in specialty medicine in Santa Barbara, and have a lot of experience with dogs and cats. I received my bachelors degree in Animal Science at UC Davis, am currently working to become a registered veterinary technician. I have also been petsitting for 4-5 years. I have two cats of my own, but also love dogs. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, senior dogs, or those that have special needs or need to be medicated. Walks or check-ins are preferred due to my schedule, but overnight care can be discussed. I can’t wait to help care for your furry friends!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I care for the pets as the owners request. If they require to be crated at night I can do so, or if they must sleep in the bed and require cuddles, that can also be done! I keep the home very clean, taking out trash if needed and will often clean up before I leave. I also keep the pets feeding areas clean and change the water regularly. I can also medicate and will give medications as prescribed and as directed by the owner. I can also water plants, take the garbage cans out, or anything else needed while caring for the home.

It’s very important to know about behavioral or social issues, whether it’s with people or other dogs. This will dictate how I structure my walk, and especially how I approach introducing myself to them. Any fear or anxiety about socialization with other people or dogs is manageable but please let me know before I meet them. Please let me know if they need to be medicated, as I am happy to do so.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
