Hello! My pet care service will bring you peace of mind & allow you to rest easy while you're away from home. Your pets will be loved, protected, & well cared for by a mature, dependable, experienced, medical professional who will treat them with the utmost level of TLC & integrity, just as I would my own. Your pets health, safety, & comfort are my highest priority, therefore, I closely monitor, note, & report any changes in behavior, eating, & bathroom habits while in my care. I have 40 years of both professional & personal experience working in a wide variety of animal care including veterinary medicine, balanced K-9 & equine positive approach training, wildlife & domestic animal rescue & rehabilitation. I'm not just limited to dogs & cats! I have experience & offer care for most all species, such as exotics and livestock, (ie: horses, chickens, ferrets, rabbits, hamsters, snakes, etc...) A little bit about myself: Aside from caring for a plethora of childhood pets, I began my career in veterinary medicine at the age of 16. At age 19, I successfully completed a rigorous 2 month, 8 hr./7 days a week, K-9 training program. It was then that I began professionally training dogs in a wide variety of skills such as basic & advanced (off-leash) obedience, personal protection, police & narcotic detection K-9's. My most recent work history includes working as a CVA in the ER/CCU/ICU departments at both Blue Pearl and Summit 24/7 animal ER/specialty referral hospitals, located in Tacoma Washington. Prior to going back into animal medicine, I worked as a RMA/Radiology tech for MultiCare, and as a college instructor for the Medical Assistant program at Everest Tech, as well. 🐾 TIA for your time & interest in the services I provide~ I look forward to hearing from you! 🐾 🚨**Please disregard the "total price estimates" that Rover quotes, as they can sometimes be calculated wrong, reflecting an incorrect price of care.
