Pet care experience

Loving Care + Vet Tech Exp 🐾

Please be aware, my services are focused on vacation and occasional care, including drop-in visits for feeding, potty breaks, and check-ins, as well as short-term boarding in my home while you’re away. This allows me to give each pet my full attention and provide reliable, consistent care during the times you need it most. Experience: I’ve been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember — from rescuing wildlife as a kid to building a career around their care. I hold an associate’s degree in Animal Science and previously earned a certificate in Veterinary Medicine. I worked as a veterinary technician for 3 years in an animal hospital, where I gained hands-on experience with animals of all sizes, temperaments, and medical needs. I’m comfortable administering medications, recognizing signs of illness, and providing calm, attentive care — even in high-stress situations. After my time in the clinic, I spent 2 years in the corporate pet food industry, deepening my knowledge of pet nutrition and overall wellness. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I treat every animal like my own — with patience, love, and attention to their individual needs.

Schedule

I work from home, which allows me to have a very flexible schedule throughout the day. I’m available for early morning visits, midday walks or check-ins during lunch breaks, and evening care. This flexibility makes it easy for me to provide consistent attention and timely care, whether your pet needs a quick drop-in, a walk to break up their day, or extra love while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. With my background as a former veterinary technician, I’m experienced in handling pets of all temperaments and can quickly recognize signs of stress or illness. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions. As a dog owner myself, I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether in my home or yours, you can expect reliable care, clear communication, and plenty of updates for peace of mind.
