Vet’s Daughter, Vet Tech Experience
Pet care experience
Hello! I work from home most of the time and would love to help out other fur baby owners who have to leave their fur baby at home while they are at work! I work in sales in the veterinary industry and my dad is a veterinarian. I was a vet tech for him for several years and a kennel worker before that. I also have a bachelors degree in Animal Science. You can trust that I have more than enough experience with animals and will love and care for your pet just like my own! I have a 6 year old, 20 lb, Jack Russell Terrier that prefers small to medium sized dogs in our home and is excited to have a playmate during the day while I work! I will also do drop in visits, dog walking, and overnight boarding. Please contact me if you are interested or have any questions!
Reviews
Mandy does a wonderful job visiting, feeding, and walking our two large dogs. They loved her right away. She keeps us updated and goes above and beyond our expectations. When we got home we could tell the dogs had been well taken care of. We'll definitely be calling her again!
Mandy is awesome! This was my first time using Rover and I was a bit hesitant, but Mandy put me at ease during our meet and greet. My dogs immediately took to her; on our scheduled day, they did not growl or bark when she pulled up to the house. She sent pictures of them eating and playing ball. Perky ears and wagging tails all around. Overall, Mandy is Jake and Tyson’s new best friend and my lifesaver!
Weekly I do some day travel for work and can't make it home to let my dog out, so I popped over to Rover and found Mandy about 2 years ago. She is absolutely wonderful with my furbaby! You can tell that she is an animal lover, but she is also professional and reliable which is key for finding a dog walker. I can quickly send her a text to book her services and then easily pay cash or Venmo her payment. It couldn't be easier! After a few months we introduced our dogs and they get along really well. Mandy will always send me a picture of them walking or playing together and you can tell they are just living their best lives. Last September I was going to be out of town for a few days, so I utilized Mandy's boarding services. She would send me texts and pictures to let me know how my dog was doing and I could tell my furbaby was being well cared for, loved on, and just having a great time. I have another trip coming up and have already booked Mandy's boarding services. It's a relief to know that I don't have to worry about my dog while I'm out of town. I'd highly recommend Mandy for dog walking and boarding if you are looking for someone to love your pet just as much as you do!
Mandy has cared for our beagle twice now, and we are always satisfied with our experience! Mandy has shown responsiveness and patience with our dog’s special needs, and we love that Mandy shares photos and videos of the dogs playing together and relaxing throughout the stay. We recommend Mandy with no hesitation!
