Experienced Veterinary Assistant

Pet care experience

I am willing to provide at your home care for dogs of all ages and sizes! Whether you need me to stop in for a walk or your pet just needs a friend while you're away, I can be there! I can also water your plants, grab the mail and any other tasks that may be helpful to you upon request. After every visit/walk I will send you a detailed update and at least one picture of your pet! I have worked as a full time Kennel Attendant and Veterinary Assistant for 2 years and I am certified through NAVTA. With my past experience, I am comfortable following strict feeding instructions, giving baths/basic grooming, going for walks and administering medications/treatments (pills, SQ fluids, liquid oral medications, insulin, etc), reading body language and taking care of all different sizes and breeds. I will always do my best to make sure your pet is comfortable and content while you're away. I am a senior pet lover! I have now adopted 3 senior dogs, 2 Chihuahuas and 1 Terrier mix. With my current full time schedule at a local animal hospital, I am only able to offer drop in visits and walks at this point in time. I am available for most weekends and week days before 7am or after 4pm. Please feel free to contact me about availability at any time. I greatly look forward to meeting you and getting to know your furry friends!

Rachel stopped in to see my pup while I was out of town for the weekend. She did a great job with him and sent photos and updates after each visit. I knew Rufus was in great hands while I was gone!
