- 23 years of living with pets. I grew up with animals as a large part of my life, and understanding the cues pets give as to their needs and comfort level has become second nature - 15 years of experience caring for pets. I took on a more active role in pet care starting at age 8 when I got my first non-family pet, a bearded dragon named Spike. - Experience with senior pets and pets requiring special care, such as medications. - Experience with injections, including both sliding scale and auto-injectors. - Experience with high-energy pets requiring lots of exercise - Experience monitoring and recording symptoms of illness or allergies and recovery progress. - Experience with niche/hobby pets, such as invertebrates and reptiles, I have personally owned or fostered lizards, snakes, and spiders. - I was a Junior Zoo Keeper at John Ball Zoo and worked with wild and exotic birds, small mammals, and livestock. - Experience in client-care and client-facing careers, I have worked as a nursing aide and in retail, quality of client service is a top priority. - Experience housekeeping professionally. Your home will look as you left it or cleaner, guaranteed. I strive to meet the expectations of pet parents and the needs of their beloved companions!
