I have been an animal lover my entire life! In addition to caring for my own pets throughout my life, I have nearly 11 years experience as a veterinary technician, have previously worked as a part-time professional dog walker & pet sitter, as well as a bather & canine massage therapist for a professional groomer. My experience as a vet tech gives me the skills to *administer oral & injectable medications if needed & I'm able to recognize if a pet is sick, injured, or in distress. I've worked with pets of all stages of life & am capable of caring for a variety of animals including, but not limited to, dogs, cats, ferrets, rabbits & guinea pigs. Though I'm not available to do overnight stays, I can do multiple daily drop-in visits while you are away, as well as dog walks. I can also provide **transportation to & from doggy daycare or to vet or grooming appointments. Plus, I am a certified canine massage therapist & can perform relaxing therapeutic touch on your dog! *An additional charge of $10/service will apply for any special needs care, such as administering medications, urine/fecal collection, applying/removing diapers, etc. **Base rate for transportation service is $20, plus 60 cents/mile if destination is over 5 miles from starting point. Additional charges if I'm required to stay with pet during appointments.
