I have reviewed Pet First Aid through the American Red Cross as well as Pet CPR through eCornell & I hold a B.S. in Zoology from NCSU. While at NCSU, I worked on a mobile vaccine clinic for 2 years and I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager. I was 10 years old when my neighbors entrusted me with the care of their farm for several days to weeks at a time. More recently, I have worked full-time at a specialty cat clinic as a vet assistant since 2019. Passion for rescue work led me to the medical team at SPCA Wake of County in 2023, where I spent 3 years until moving on to Purr Partners Feline Rescue. My skill set includes fear-free/low-stress handling techniques, species appropriate feeding and husbandry, oral and injected medication administration- including subcutaneous fluids, IM injections, and insulin. I will be happy to keep your pet’s sophisticated medication schedules & routines on track. While I am comfortable and knowledgeable with many species, cats are my specialty and I am certified through the American Association of Feline Practitioners with a Cat Friendly Veterinary Professional certificate. I grew up across the street from a small farm and developed a strong bond with animals of all types at an early age. I have cared for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, small animals, and an assortment of farm animals. I would love to care for any of these exotics through Rover. Individual pricing for multi-species households available. Grooming rate includes bath, nail trim, and ear cleaning.
