I’m a full-time student, but my schedule is flexible enough that I can come home during the day for potty breaks and check-ins. I know how important it is to feel confident your pet is in good hands, so I’m always happy to chat about their unique needs and routines. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and totally at home while you’re away!

Loving Pet Care from a Vet Student

Pet care experience

I’m a third-year veterinary student and lifelong animal lover. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do; it’s something I truly love! I’ve spent my life around animals and have worked with them in homes, clinics, and shelters, from playful puppies to senior cats who need a little extra patience and care. I’m bilingual (English & Spanish) and have over 7 years of hands-on experience as a veterinary technician, including surgical and emergency care. I’m comfortable administering medications, recognizing when something isn’t quite right, and helping animals feel safe and loved even when their humans are away. I’ve been lucky to gain experience with animals in a variety of settings, including some wildlife work in places like Thailand, South Africa, Central and South America. These experiences have helped me grow as a caregiver and strengthened my belief that every animal deserves gentle, compassionate care. I’d love the chance to care for your fur baby like one of my own!

Would 1000% have Naija stay again! She took great care of our pups and sent us lots of pictures and updates. It takes a while for one of our dogs to warm up to new people but he instantly felt comfortable and at ease meeting Naija. Thanks so much!
