Experienced RVT/Pet sitter
Pet care experience
I have worked in animal care since 2014, taking care of pets as well as working in veterinary hospitals as an RVT. I have experience with everything from cats and dogs to goats and zoo animals and find it impossible to pick a favorite. Being around animals is my career and my passion.
Reviews
Quincy is fantastic! Our rescue dog Ollie is aggressive with anyone she doesn’t know. This is a dog who can’t even be groomed without general anesthesia. We haven’t been able to travel in the 4 years we’ve had her because no one, I mean NO ONE, can take care of her. We found Quincy and that all changed. Quincy was able to put in the time and effort to come to the house weekly for several months before our trip to gradually desensitize Ollie to her. Visit by visit she built trust so that by the time we went on our 6 day trip, Ollie was ready. Quincy was able to build enough trust in our scared girl to where she could walk her twice daily and spend time with her so she didn’t get lonely while we were gone. What a relief for us! We were able to relax and enjoy our trip without worrying for Ollie or her caregiver’s safety because Quincy is super caring and skilled and is well versed in animal behavior and reading animal body language. I knew that she could handle Ollie and I knew that even though Ollie still had her innate fears, deep down she trusted Quincy, too. We would recommend Quincy to anyone looking for a pet sitter, but especially if you have a pet with special needs — Quincy is a miracle-worker!
Quincy is absolutely incredible — besides providing the highest standard of care for her animal patients in her professional career, she’s a thoughtful, kind animal lover who gets along swimmingly with every pet I’ve ever seen her around (which is many). My own cats and dogs are all obsessed with her.
Quincy the animal whisperer! I've trusted Quincy to take care of my cats many times. From senior care and monitoring, to getting out the kitten crazies with lots of playtime, my cats have loved having Quincy come over! My shy boy, Freddie, doesn't even hide when Quincy is here - that's saying something! Quincy is thorough, caring, and respectful. I highly recommend her to care for your animal babies.
Quincy has been an excellent pet sitter for my cat Muppet! She asked thorough questions about Muppet’s care before starting, and she was happy to give whatever type of updates I preferred. Quincy is an experienced Registered Veterinary Technician, so I trust her to know if Muppet is in need of medical care when I’m gone, and know how to address it. She is great at reading animals and giving them the amount/type of attention that they want. I would highly recommend!
