Exotic Pet & Reptile Specialist!

Hi I’m Morgan! I grew up in Colorado where it was very unusual to not have dogs (or cats, birds, horses, lizards, chickens, fish, ect.) around the house 24/7. I absolutely love animals of all kinds, and I’m currently working towards my degree in Zoology! I live in Irvine, a location perfect for walks and runs whenever the weather is fit. I also have my cat and dog CPR certification through the American Red Cross ⛑️ What I Can Help With: ✔️ Reptiles, amphibians, birds, fish, invertebrates, and small mammals ✔️ Snake feeding (live or F/T) ✔️ Enclosure cleaning, lighting checks, humidity/temperature adjustments ✔️ Bioactive care & plant-safe husbandry ✔️ Dog walking + cat & dog drop-ins ✔️ Oral medication for cats/dogs (no injections) Many exotic pets become stressed or sick when moved, so in home drop-ins are usually best! I can come to you so your pet stays happy and safe in their own habitat.

Schedule

Today, I work at a reptile and exotic animal shop, where I care for everything from snakes and lizards to amphibians, fish, and small mammals. I’m trained in daily husbandry, safe handling, enclosure setup, nutrition, bioactive care, and snake feeding (live or frozen/thawed). I have a lot of free time when I’m not working or doing homework!

****Unfortunately I cannot board cats or dogs in my home, I have 2 cats who are not socialized with dogs. I can still do walks, drop in's, home stays, and provide anything else your pet needs! Exceptions for small pets such as reptiles, birds, small mammals or anything else in a tank/cage is more than welcome to stay in my reptile room, prices will be adjusted accordingly! ****

Pets

A typical day

At home, I have a dedicated reptile room/shelving with proper heat gradients, humidity control, UVB, and enrichment. I personally care for: 🦎 3 Bearded Dragons 🦎 2 Leopard Geckos 🌿 2 Crested Geckos 🐸 1 Pac-Man Frog 🪱 2 Mourning Geckos 🐱 2 Cats My home is already prepared for reptiles, amphibians, fish, and other small pets in tanks/cages can safely stay with me if needed! For doggies: I've been living in California for the past 10 years now and have found some really nice hiking trails and parks that are dog friendly. For dogs who just need a bit of company and food, I love animal cuddles and don't mind staying stocked up on lint rollers!

0 to 15 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Crate-trained dogs only
Morgan can host up to 2 pets per night
I love dogs of all shapes and sizes, but only being 5'4'' I cannot physically handle a LARGE dog who is leash aggressive/pulls excessively. Although if your Great Dane is great on the leash, it shouldn't be a problem ( my Aunt has 3 ) Also I am comfortable giving oral medication to cats and dogs, just no needles please!
