Pet care experience

Fuzzy Critter Care

I have taken care of my own pets as a child, fed and played with them and loved them deeply but my real journey began in 2020 after obtaining my Veterinary assistant certification. Since then I have been handling and taking care of pets in a health care setting, I've started out as a veterinary assistant and made my up to a veteran technician. From knowing how to care for a pet in surgery and recovering them after. Say you have a pet on medication, no issues there I am able to medicate with ease. Senior dogs with mobility issues are no problem as well I can safely take them on bathroom breaks and to meal times. For the little pups I'll be able to expend energy and give them extra attention minding there bathroom breaks to help ease them into being house broken. From any life stage of your dog I'll be able to give care to the best of my abilities!

She consistently demonstrates an unwavering commitment to the safety and comfort of the animals she cares for. I have relied on her invaluable assistance, knowing that she approaches every task with a level of professionalism and responsibility that is truly commendable. Not only does Shelby excel in the technical aspects of pet care, but she also has a genuine love for animals that shines through in her interactions. My pets adore her, and their tails start wagging the moment they see her. It's clear that she forms deep and meaningful connections with each and every pet she encounters. In short, Shelby is a gem in the world of pet caregiving. Her combination of expertise, compassion, and trustworthiness sets her apart, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and loving caregiver for their cherished furry companions.
