Vet tech & pet lover

I am a veterinary technician with experience caring for animals and monitoring their health and behavior. I have also completed several house and pet sitting stays through TrustedHousesitters, taking care of pets in different homes. In my personal life, I have cared for dogs, cats, so I am very comfortable with different types of animals. I am patient, responsible and truly love animals. I will make sure your pet feels safe, happy and well cared for at all times.

Safety, trust & environment

I always prioritize the safety and well-being of every pet. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions, including feeding, exercise and any specific routines. I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe and relaxed in their environment. In the client’s home, I respect the space and keep everything clean and organized. I pay close attention to the pet’s behavior and needs, ensuring they receive proper care, attention and affection at all times.

Sonia started walking Molly this week and I'm really happy with how things went. Molly is getting older, so I can't help but worry about her during the day. Sonia is so attentive and communicative about Molly's energy level and mood, how her business went, and anything else she notices. It brings me a lot of peace of mind especially with the cute photos I get to see from their visit. Sonia is so lovely and caring and I'm happy to trust her with Molly.

Sonia and her husband did a wonderful job taking care of my little cat Rudy this weekend. Rudy is shy around strangers but I received photos showing she was interacting with them both! I came home to a happy cat. I am relieved to have Sonia booked for two weeks this summer, I will be comfortable leaving Rudy while I am away! I highly recommend booking Sonia!

Shadow adored her! He's usually very skittish with new people, doesn't love any one else handling his leash, but he loved her! She was so good with him and sweet with him, he got so confident and comfortable with her within two walks. Then he was lighting up the moment he knew it was walk time and practically sprinting to her. Would highly recommend booking her, she's the sweetest!

We are so very thankful that we found Sonia to care for our dogs when we’re at work. Her and her husband have truly lifted a weight from our shoulders! They are always on time and the dogs are happy to see them. Highly recommend booking with her!

Sonia took amazing care of my pet Minni and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She is very kind, responsible and clearly has a lot of knowledge about animals. You can really tell she is a veterinary technician because she pays attention to every detail and makes sure everything is done properly. She kept me updated, followed all instructions perfectly and made sure my pet felt comfortable and safe at all times. It gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing my pet was in such good hands. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thanks Sonia.

I think it’s really important to know each pet’s routine, personality and any specific needs before caring for them. This includes their feeding schedule, walking habits, energy level and how they usually behave around new people. I also like to know if they have any medical conditions, allergies, medications or things that might stress them out, such as loud noises, other animals or being left alone for long periods. As a veterinary technician, I’m comfortable following detailed instructions and paying attention to any health or behaviour changes. This helps me make sure each pet feels safe, calm and well cared for at all times. The more information I have beforehand, the better I can adapt and give them the same care and routine they’re used to at home.
