Vet Assistant for your Pup!

Pet care experience

As a dog owner myself, I know how difficult it can be to be away from your best friend. It’s always a hassle to wrangle friends to help, and no one wants to stick their pooch into a kennel. But that’s why I’m here: to make sure you and your pet are as happy as can be when you’re away from each other. I am a huge dog lover, but I also have the expertise needed to make sure that your pup is in good hands, no matter what! In addition to being a lifelong dog lover, I also have lots of experience taking care of animals in a professional capacity. I have been a veterinary assistant for two years, but have over four years of experience working with animals. I am certified in pet behavior, nutrition, first aid, and medicine administration. No matter what your pup needs to be happy and healthy, I’ll be able to give to them! I’m very experienced in taking kinds of pups of all stripes, so there’s nothing too difficult for me to handle. When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It’s a great way to make sure that we’re all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pup and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it’s always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Finally, I just love meeting new dogs! I like to get down on their level to show them that I’m a welcome presence here to make friends, and I’m sure we’ll be best buddies in no time at all.

Marivic is the best! She took great care of our diabetic dog while on vacation. She's thorough, kind, knowledgeable and patient. Marivic made us feel at ease leaving our dog while we were out of the country. She is 5+ stars in our book!

Marivic does such a great job with our pups Gus and Roxy! We had to leave at the last minute and she was able to help us out by sitting for us this weekend. Thank you!! Gus was recently nudered and Marivic took care of giving him his meds and taking care of his needs. Thanks again Marivic!

Marivic is the best! My wife and I had to leave town for a week to check on family and we did not want to board our two eleven month old boxer pups. Our two pups are full of energy and Marivic was fantastic with them. She worked with them on sitting and staying which was a huge accomplishment with these two excitable pups. She texted us and sent us pics and videos daily to help alleviate any worries we might have had. Thanks Marivic for taking care of Gus and Roxy and house sitting our home!!!

We were nervous to leave our George for the first extended period of time while we went on vacation. When she arrived, George not only remembered her but he was so excited to see her, and willingly and happily followed her out! You could tell he was excited and she was amazing at keeping us updated on George while we were gone. After the first day we quickly realized George was having the time of his life with her and her pups, it was like a doggy vacation for him! We couldn’t be happier with our experience and we actually look forward to taking more trips as we know George will love to go back!

Information Marivic R. would like to know about your pet

Some things I like to learn ahead of time: - Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? - What’s your preferred method of communication? - Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? - Do you have a vet nearby that you trust? - Is your dog spayed/neutered? - Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? - What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? - What’s the best way to spoil your pup?

A typical day

Spending time with animals is simply one of the most fulfilling things in my life! I love to take care of them, and love helping them thrive. One of the best ways to do that, in my opinion, is to get out and about with our pooches and explore the great outdoors with them! My neighborhood is so perfect for that because of the proximity to tons of great trails and walking paths, so we’ll never be at a loss for exploration. After all, a healthy pup is a healthy pup, so I’ll do everything I can to make sure that we get nice and worked out every day.
