Experienced Veterinary Assistant

Pet care experience

I have approximately 10 years of experience with pet care and as a emergency veterinary assistant while also having a bachelors degree in Animal & Poultry Sciences from Virginia Tech. I am experienced in all canine sizes and ages as well as felines, exotics, and large animals. My extensive experience working as a small and large animal veterinary assistant for 10 years can give you the relief of leaving your loved animals in my care! I can administer oral and injectable medications with ease and be responsible for feeding schedules as well as exercise, play time, and other needs your pet may have. I also am very knowledgeable on caring for animals with health concerns as well as prepared for noticing and reacting to any health issues that could arise! I have experience with all size and ages of animals, ranging from puppies to geriatrics. I am very comfortable with communicating and making sure there are no worries while being away from home!

Safety, trust & environment

As much as I would love to, I cannot welcome other animals into my home. I am happy to accommodate your needs in your home as well as daily walks/runs, and trips to nearby dog parks. I have a 17 pound miniature poodle who is always looking for new fur friends as well as a animal loving boyfriend who is always looking to give pets and love as well! Rest assured, your four legged family members won’t be able to consume all of the love there is to offer!

Information Mikaela W. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any species, breed or size preferences, but I would like to be aware of any medical conditions, allergies, and behavioral tendencies.

A typical day

I live by the New River Trail and very familiar with the Galax and Sparta area as well! Having a puppy of my own, I am supplied with many toys and treats he would love to share as well!

Availability

I currently am self employed while in the process of applying to veterinary school, so my schedule is very flexible. If given the notice, I can easily arrange my work schedule around yours so I can spend the most time possible with your animals. I can work around your needs and easily fit them into my flexible schedule!
