Pet care experience

My availability is changing in August 2025. I will be working in an office Monday-Friday 8 AM-5 PM. I can be available weekdays for 15 minute visits at 7 AM and 30-1 hour visits from 530-730 PM. Weekends I can do visits anytime except from 8 AM-10 PM. *I will be moving from Charlotte, North Carolina to Newport News, Virginia on February 28th, 2025.* Hello I’m Montse, welcome to my profile! Taking care of animals has always been a passion of mine. Over the last five years I’ve taken in three beautiful stray cats and adopted a German shepherd/Labrador Mix. They are my fur babies who mean the world to me. My top priority is making sure every animal in my care is given the love I give my own fur babies. I worked as a Veterinary Assistant and Clinical Laboratory Assistant for 4 years until 2023, so I have a lot of experience working with animals of all different sizes and temperaments, as well as administering medications. During my time as a veterinary assistant I learned to administer most medications for cats and dogs (orally, topically, and subcutaneously). I am CPR/First Aid Certified and I'm happy to provide my certification upon request.

Montserrat has always done a great job with our Daisy. She goes above and beyond! We absolutely love her and I know she truly cares for her “wards”. We will continue to use her as a sitter!
