Vet Tech Providing Pawsitive Care🐾

Hi there! I’m Patricia. I’m a proud pittie mom and previous emergency veterinary technician with 3+ years of professional experience caring for pets of all ages. I’ve also volunteered providing medical care and rehabilitation for wildlife, so I’m comfortable handling a wide variety of situations. From puppies to seniors, your pet will receive attentive, specialized care in a safe and loving environment. I’ve since transitioned out of emergency medicine to dedicate time to my higher education, and I now focus my schedule around pet sitting. This gives me a flexible, reliable availability and allows me to be fully present for the pets I care for. I also prioritize clear, consistent communication with every client: • Meet & Greets: I’m happy to schedule a meet & greet before your booking so I can get to know you and your pet. This helps me learn routines, preferences, and any special needs. • Emergency Contacts: I collect all essential contact information to ensure you’re reached immediately if anything urgent arises. • Daily Updates: I provide text, photo, and video updates covering meals, walks, playtime, and any observations regarding your pet’s health or behavior. With my professional experience, compassionate approach, and commitment to keeping you informed, your pet will be well cared for and loved while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member!

Safety, trust & environment

I treat all animals like they are my own, providing a nurturing environment for them to thrive while their pet parents are away. I maintain a clean space while ensuring your animals receive the quality care and attention they need. Communication is important to me, therefore, I will ensure that you are kept updated daily during the time that you are away.

Patricia was so sweet and friendly. She took very good care of our cat fur babies while we were gone. She kept us informed and posted pictures from every visit. Highly recommend, will rebook if pet care is needed again.

Patricia is the absolute best. She’s patient with our pup, who is afraid of everything; and she utilizes the walk time so well.

Patricia takes amazing care of all my animals when I'm away! They miss her when she's not there! She's always on time and is extremely reliable. Her big heart plus her experience in the Veterinary field makes her the perfect person to entrust your pet with.

I've known Patricia for years, and I have to say she is one of the most caring and responsible caregivers I know. Patricia has always shared a love for animals which led her to become a vet tech. Her attention to detail and dedication to pet care in the clinic and outside of work makes her a great provider. Patricia goes above and beyond to ensure pets are happy and healthy. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.

As a vet tech, now transitioning to human healthcare, I pride myself in my ability to provide quality medical care to all fur babies! Because of this, I am equipped to handle any routine medical needs your animal requires. Please let me know if your fur baby has any chronic conditions, allergies, special diets, medications, or any other special needs that would require extra care. I am experienced in: - Diabetic care - Administering injections - Administering oral medications, as well as eye, ear, nose, and topical medications - Providing hydrotherapy - Assisting with low-impact physical activity for pets with mobility issues Apart from health concerns, here’s some other information I may need to know… Please let me know if your pet has any specific behaviors or accommodations I should be aware of in order for me to provide the best care, such as: - Reactive during walks or storms - Reactive around other dogs - Food aggression - Possessive aggression - Handling sensitivities (dislikes ears or paws being touched, etc.) - Past incidents of aggression or biting - Separation anxiety - Your pet’s favorite comfort items Information like this allows me to keep your pet safe and comfortable while also ensuring my own safety and protection during our visits. For the safety of all pets, I require that all puppies be up to date on their vaccinations before I can provide walks.
