Pet care experience

Cat dad, passion for all animals

I have been caring for my own cats for 11 years. I have 5 cats: Rocket & Sparkles (14) Enzo (2) Annie (1.5) Ivy (11 months). Throughout the years I have had to administer medications such as liquid and pill gabapentin, insulin injections, antibiotics, and topicals. For six months, I have been administering insulin injections to my senior cat Rocket who has CKD and Diabetes. I have to be very methodical with how I feed them due to diet restrictions. With the experience I have gained from my own cats, I am very comfortable administering medications. I deeply care for all animals small or big, and their health and wellbeing are very important to me. I also worked for 3 months at a dog daycare in St. Augustine, FL, which was capable of boarding many dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

The health and safety of my animals and the animals I watch after are top priority for me. Whatever the instructions are from pet owners, I follow them with extreme attention to detail and I don't cut any corners. If I have to spend extra time completing a task, I do without rushing. I treat other people's homes and pets how I would want my pets and house to be treated.

Schedule

In the mornings my cats get separated and fed specific diets according to their health needs. My Manx cat Ivy requires IBD food that doesn't inflame her condition. My senior cat Rocket gets his CKD food for his kidney condition. Rocket also requires insulin injections at the same time frame twice a day to maintain his diabetes.
