I am a N.C. registered veterinary technician, and the only Veterinary Technician Specialist (VTS) recognized in North/South Carolina through the Academy of Veterinary Technicians in Clinical Practice. I have many years work experience as an emergency/critical care veterinary nurse and caring for cats and dogs with special health care needs. I am also a healing touch and Reiki practitioner and enjoy interacting with pets through the human-animal bond. My pet-sitting rates are a little higher than most others on this site, but be assured that my many years experience in the veterinary nursing profession will ease your peace of mind that your pet is getting the best care available while you are away. On the fun side, I live in a quiet neighborhood with a large, high-fenced back yard and in-ground swimming pool. For your canines that love the water, my house would be a dog's dream come true! Oh, and I really, super-duper, head-over-heals love cats too! :) I share my home with my lovely wife, a Great Pyrenees, a boxer/pit mixed, a crazy cat, and a guinea pig.
