All Ages, Sizes, and Special Needs

I’ve grown up around animals my entire life. My dad owned hunting dogs that we had trained ourselves, they were so loving of us kids and always enjoyed long walks in the woods and hours of play time. We’ve also had cats of every personality, from the fat house cats, to the crazy orange cats, to the shy barn cats, to the hunters who always brought us back a present. We would go to the farm every Sunday and feed the cows and pigs. We’d help our grandparents clean out the chicken coop and feed the hens. I’ve always had a big heart for animals of all shapes and sizes. I have experience with taking care of my own animals as well as long term and short term pet sitting. I’m experienced bathing and some grooming, I have owned a husky and a malamute and I’m not afraid of hair. I can also clean ears, teeth, and nail trimming but you must supply your own equipment. I currently work in the healthcare field and can provide care to puppies and senior dogs and special needs. I can administer medications, change dressings, and more. I work with Military and Police K9s and I’m trained in Animal CPR, First Aid, and Critical Care.

Safety, trust & environment

I do not offer any in-house services at this time, but I will gladly come to your house! I prefer that your pet has a harness for walking rather than just a collar, as it is safer for me and your pet. Care will differ from client to client based upon what services you are looking for, just let me know!

Veronica was fantastic! Frequently sent us, crazy cat people, updates and pictures of our special needs kitties! She gave me so much peace of mind that they were taken care of while we were away. Will definitely be utilizing her in the future! Thank you so much, Veronica ??

Veronica is a fantastic dog sitter/walker. She is a true lover of animals and is good at being in command of her charges, as well as giving them lots of love and encouragement. She loves to go hiking but is aware of the limitations of her companions. She is also in tune to any health or hygiene issues that might be of concern. Personally, I think she is a fantastic person to be in this position.

Often times I would be away fro. Home too long because of jobs that I needed to do a few towns, or even a few states, away. I had two cats named Jasper and Jinx. They almost literally were my world, they gave me a reason to keep on keeping on. But unfortunately, work needed to be done. So I called upon my good friend Veronica to see if she could help me out. And every single time I asked her, she said yes, without hesitation. They were fairly timid cats, but for whatever reason, they had no problem staying with her. Veronica has a compassionate heart, that is both loving and understanding. If you need a animal sitter, than look no further.

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, medications, or diets. I will also need to know if your pet is reactive to children or other dogs in the event we may run into others when walking.
