About: I am a veterinary technician with a lifelong passion for animal care. I have extensive experience working in animal facilities, where I provided hands-on medical and daily care for pets. I am comfortable administering medications, including insulin injections, when needed. I understand that every pet is unique—whether your dog needs long walks or runs to burn off energy, or your cat simply needs a visit for feeding, companionship, and care, I am happy to accommodate their individual needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously. Your animals will be in knowledgeable, compassionate hands. I will always keep you updated and provide plenty of photos for peace of mind. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, as my current schedule is very flexible. This allows me to accommodate a variety of needs, including morning, midday, and evening visits, extended walks, and last-minute requests when possible. My flexibility ensures I can provide reliable, consistent care and give each pet the time and attention they deserve. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are my top priorities when caring for pets in my home or a pet owner’s home. I carefully follow all instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, medications, routines, and any special care needs. I take this information seriously and make sure each pet’s routine is maintained as closely as possible to reduce stress. I always ensure doors, gates, and windows are securely closed and locked, and I monitor pets closely during walks, playtime, and feeding. I use safe handling techniques and appropriate equipment, such as leashes or harnesses, and never allow pets into unsafe situations. I also keep the environment clean, comfortable, and free of hazards. As a veterinary technician, I am trained to recognize signs of stress or illness and will communicate promptly with the owner if any concerns arise. I provide regular updates and photos to maintain trust and give peace of mind, knowing pets are being cared for in a safe, attentive, and loving environment.
