"A pet is the only thing on earth that loves you more than it loves itself." Hi, I'm Vanessa and I'm the type of person that says hi to dogs and cats! I've loved all furry and scaly friends since I was very small. I took that passion and became a Certified Veterinary Technician where I give all the TLC needed to heal our little friends and speak for those without voices. I'm currently working in general practice, specialized in dermatological veterinary medicine, and have 3 years of veterinary ER experience. I have been fully trained to administer CPR, subcutaneous injections, oral medications, and many more skills. I am able to keep you fully in the know if I feel your pet isn't acting the way it should and is of medical concern to me. I have helped families recognize pets in pain, respiratory concerns, dietary issues, and gastrointestinal concerns to name a few. I am also quite familiar with nervous and timid energies from working in the vet field and can recognize when I need to give your furbabe some space and time to acclimate as well. Respect goes far with everyone and everything! I am not comfortable doing 30 minute or 60 minute walks with pets May through October due to the high temperatures we experience. I don't want to invite trouble when it comes to heat exhaustion and burning dogs' paw pads on scorching cement. **I offer nail trims, anal gland expressions, DVM prescribed subcutaneous fluid administration, and oral/subcutaneous medication administration. We can discuss further at meetup.**
