Loving Vet Assistant for Pets

Hi there! I’m a trained Veterinary Assistant with a big heart for animals and a soft spot for wagging tails and happy paws. Whether it’s a playful pup, a cuddly cat, or a senior sweetie who needs a little extra TLC, I’ve got the skills and the snuggles to keep them safe and smiling. I work in vet med, so I’m confident handling meds, special diets, or pets with unique needs. When your pets stay with me, they’re treated like family — because they are. Let me know how I can help your fur baby feel at home while you’re away!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

In My Home: Pets who stay with me are treated like family — they join the fun alongside my four dogs and one laid-back hamster. I make sure they have their own cozy space, stick to their normal routine, and get plenty of love and play throughout the day. As a vet assistant, I’m confident managing medications, special diets, or any extra care they might need. Fun fact: before vet med, I spent 5 years as a corporate analyst working from home — and I learned firsthand how pets can get bored. That’s why I created “dance breaks” to keep things lively! With your permission, I’ll send you little video updates (yes, even dance parties!) so you know your pet is safe, loved, and thriving. In Your Home: When I’m caring for pets in their own space, I’m all about keeping things calm, familiar, and stress-free. I follow your instructions closely, show up reliably, and give your pet my full attention — whether it’s meals, walks, play, or cuddle time. And yep… if allowed, I’ll send videos of our mini dance breaks or joy-filled check-ins so you feel confident they’re in good hands (and paws).

She is great with animals! I was unsure on how to take care of a new dog and she was very helpful on showing me how to properly leash and walk my dog. Super sweet and very knowledgeable.

Schedule

As a veterinary assistant, pet care is part of my daily life. My work schedule is set 6 weeks in advance, so I always know ahead of time which days I’m available for clients. I have four dogs and a hamster of my own, and their care is my top priority — but when I commit to caring for someone else’s pet, they get the same love, attention, and reliability. I plan ahead to ensure every animal in my care is safe, happy, and well looked after.

I’d love to know your pet’s routine—like feeding times, potty schedule, walk preferences, and any bedtime rituals they’re used to. Behavior quirks are super helpful too! Do they get nervous during storms? Are they leash-reactive around other dogs? Do they do a happy zoomie after pooping? I want to know it all. Health is another biggie—any allergies, medications, recent injuries, or vet instructions I should follow? Also, how do they usually do when you’re away? Are they independent, or do they need a little extra reassurance? Last but not least: their likes and dislikes! Favorite toys, off-limits areas, where they like belly rubs (and where they definitely don’t), and any house rules I should follow. The more I know, the more I can make their time with me feel like a safe, fun staycation.
