With 10 years of experience as a vet tech and a lifetime of owning animals of every sort I'm uniquely qualified to not only befriend your pet, but also to manage their medication and dietary requirements, as well as care for senior or special needs pets, and address potential troubles with clear understanding of when veterinary care becomes necessary. And, you know, I really just love all the critters, all of them, even the icky or scary ones.

Taffney is prompt and reliable. One of our cats had special feeding instructions and she took care of it

Taffney is great and always accommodating. My dog Sadie is picky and she is so patient with her.
