UGA Vet Tech

Pet care experience

Specialized care for your special-needs pet! Do you have a pet that requires medication? Injections? Do you need someone with veterinary experience to catch the early signs of disease or know what to do in the event of a seizure? Do you have an unruly pup that could use some work on obedience training, leash-manners, or behavioral issues? Then I'm the pet-sitter for you! I graduated from UGA with a bachelors in Animal Science in 2016. I have been working in veterinary clinics since I was 17 giving me 10+ years of veterinary experience. I have an intense interest in animal behavior and worked as a professional dog trainer for two years learning how to teach dogs AND humans how to better understand each other and strengthen the human-animal bond. I love all animals, big and small (including exotics)! I spend my weekends horseback riding, hiking, or vegging out on the couch with my own pup and kitty! I never work later than 4pm Monday-Friday so afternoon visits are a can-do any day of the week. I can't wait to meet you and your furry, scaly, or feathered friend!

Very dependable and absolutely wonderful with all pets! She is not only knowledgeable but also very caring! She can watch over my fur babies anytime!

From dogs, cats, lizards, to horses, Sam has been a true animal lover as long as I have known her. She has great experience as a vet tech so she can handle medical needs. She also has skills in dog training. I would highly recommend her as an animal caregiver.

I am happy to sit for any and all sizes, ages, and breeds of dogs! As a vet tech at the UGA Veterinary Teaching Hospital I am comfortable caring for any and all domestic animals.

A typical day

There is a gorgeous dog park within walking distance from my house with lots of room to run and play (even if your dog is not dog-friendly)! We can play catch, I can work with your dog on obedience, or even teach them a new command over the course of my visit!
