Experienced Veterinary Assistant !

Pet care experience

Hello Everyone, Thank you for taking your time to read my bio. Firstly I am a animal at ❤️, I love animals, and choose to work In the field because who wouldn't want to work with animals. I have experience working as a veterinary assistant for 6 yrs, I am proficient in animal husbandry. I assisted in surgeries, which was fun. I learned so much working with veterinarians. I can assess basic medical behavior your pet may have. I know how to give insulin shots, subcutaneous fluids, administer medications. I have taken Pet CPR classes and am certified. Being in animal hospitals I was always around animals but felt like I needed a more personal bond with the furballs. So I decided to build my business and relationships with owners and their furry family members. I have been a full-time caretaker for the past 8 yrs, I enjoy teaching owners and providing basic training. I am very friendly and a very easy to talk to. I am very assertive when it comes to my job as a caretaker, and I am very attentive to your pets personality and needs. I have many clients, who I consider friends and family, and will gladly speak with you if you need references, I would let them speak for me. I hope I can be of help if not now, in the future. If you have any questions please just ask :) With regards Oswald B.

Oswald is great!!! From the time I met him I knew he was going to be a good fit for King. He's very attentive and super caring. I would recommend him to anyone looking for assistance with their fur baby

Information Oswald B. would like to know about your pet

Do they have any behavior that may put them in danger, aggression/anxiety, that way I can work with them on it. Do they have any pre-existing medical conditions. Either way I love all breeds, snot and all !!

A typical day

Firstly I will make sure that they are calm and not in a excited state before beginning our walk, as this provides a enjoyable walk for both of us but mostly for the safety of the dog, since a excited walk can lead to many disastrous things such as running loose, scaring others, causing a commotion when dogs are around. In my 12 yrs experience I have noticed many owners struggling with these problems. I am very assertive when it come to a dogs behavior. We will walk in the neighborhood, and if it a nice day I may drive them to my other trained dogs, if the owner agrees. I will take them to a park near my house, and let them run in an enclosed area. Play fetch, run, and play, supervised of course, always vigilant. We will definitely cuddle and they will get kisses but only when they are calm. Most behavioral issues occur because a dog is shown affection in a excited state. Here and there though I won't be able to resist and they will get a kiss just for being too cute!! I promise you they will get professional loving leadership!! Dogs are my friends and I teach them to join my pack.
