Vet-Tech exp. Patient Vibes. sm/lg

Pet care experience

**COVID-19 UPDATE** I always wear a mask and I am comfortable wearing gloves while in your home too, in addition to already washing/sanitizing my hands. I have extra leashes also to help avoid spreading the virus. Happy to still do a meet & great at 6ft apart with masks on. I worked as a veterinary technician for 2 years and now take care of dogs full time. I'm trained in administering prescriptions needed for your furry companions and have experience with nervous dogs. Happy to take care of puppies, elderly dogs, and all ages in between. In addition, I have experience with cats, horses, goats, and alpacas...if ever needed :) I'm more than happy to stay at your residence, giving your pups the comfort of their own home. I love to walk/hike and be in the outdoors, and would love to have your dogs experience some of the beautiful surrounding area too. Currently I have two wonderful rescue dogs that I've adopted over the past 3 years. Prior to that I rescued my soulmate, Sydney, I had her for 10 years before she passed away in 2016. I've spent many years dog/house sitting and caring for dogs of my own. I'm very patient, calm and dependable. I look forward to giving your pups the company and exercise needed while you're away! I also now own my own pet care business! :) ** In addition, I grew up with horses and as a Vet. Tech. I worked with a variety of large animals; horses, alpacas, llamas, donkeys, and goats. If anyone is interested in help with those animals too.

Excellent job taking care of our cat (with special needs) and on short notice. It was comforting to know she was in good hands when we were away. Will most definitely be utilizing her services with any future trips! Very pleased!

Verity did a wonderful job with our babies!! We're super particular about how we take care of them and what not, and she went above and beyond to not only make sure she followed our instructions, but she also sent us pictures along the way! I would not hesitate to use Verity again, I believe she is very trustworthy and someone who genuinely cares about our dogs!
