Pet care experience

I have over 10 years of personal and professional dog walking and pet sitting experience. For 7 years, I ran an independent pet sitting business called Wan Wan Walkers out of Corvallis, Oregon. Although I was sad to leave, I look forward to making new connections in Olympia. As part of my services, I offer medical care services such as administering medication orally, topically, and subcutaneously. I also offer simple grooming such as tooth brushing, nail clipping, and hair brushing. I am pet CPR and first aid certified as well as human first aid, CPR, and wilderness first aid certified. I specialize in dogs, cats, and house rabbits. Yes, rabbits. I know how scary it can be leaving your furry friend with a stranger. With rabbits, a cat, and dogs of my own, I know how to safely handle and care for your furry friend.
