Skilled Animal Care Provider

Pet care experience

I am a veterinarian seeking animal care opportunities while I recover from a hand injury and prepare for the next steps in my career. I have over 13 years in a professional capacity with animals, from kennel duty to veterinary assistant to being a 'real animal doctor,' along with approximately 30 years of personal pet care, including cats, rabbits, and other small mammals. I am experienced with the dosage and administration of topical, oral, and injectable medications, including administering subcutaneous fluids. I am also interested in behavior and training in a force-free, operant conditioning model, so we can always work on manners and interactions in a positive way with your beloved pet. I believe each animal is unique, regardless of breed, and has wonderful capacities for interaction and emotion that bond them with us. Disclaimer: any services provided through Rover do not constitute a legal veterinarian-client-patient relationship (VPCR) under Ohio Revised Code for the diagnosis, prevention, and/or treatment of animal health conditions, nor prescription and dispensing of medications, including preventatives. Any discussion of a health condition that may arise in the course of interaction through normal use of the platform shall be considered strictly observational or advisory, and management of care shall remain at the determination of you and your family veterinarian.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a 4' fenced yard with enough room to throw a favorite toy or for playdates. I am a short drive from Whetstone Park of Roses and the Olentangy River trail. My dog, Smilee, because she smiles or grins when excited, is most often very happy to see other dogs, although a structured introduction would always be advisable for any new dog-to-dog interaction. She is a female spayed Pit Bull with lots of energy, so she would have supervised or leash-only interaction with any elderly or geriatric dogs, as she doesn't always have a sense of a 'personal bubble'. Her besties are my ex's Greyhounds. I also have two cats and a rabbit. Smilee only appears interested in giving the rabbit kisses and stealing occasional hay stems to chew on, so overnight care of a rabbit or Guinea pig would also be possible.
