About Carrie

Experience: 9 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

My primary goal is to provide expert care for your pets and peace of mind for you. A summary of my animal care experience includes 3 years as a veterinary technician, and a BA in Zoology. I currently volunteer at a local rescue, NAWS, where I provide medical assistance, cat kennel care, and foster (way too many cats). I am able to help with Pet Day Care and Pet Walking, but beyond that, I can also provide medical assistance to pets in need, including injections, administering sub q fluids, oral medications, etc. Nail trims and simple grooming services are also available. I am comfortable around most farm animals, I have a decent amount of understanding how to care for most reptiles, birds and exotic animals, and I am always eager to learn more.

Carrie is fantastic! I was down with a back injury and could barely walk let alone go up and down stairs. Carrie came to my house 3 times a day to take care of my dog Star, She feeds her, takes her out, gives meds, she has taken her to vet visits, grooming etc. She has been a God send in our lives, Not only has she helped take care of Star she helps me with errands as well while I continue to heal. I honestly don't know what I would do without her. Star absolutely loves her. I could not be more happier with choosing her. She is co caring about everyone and their needs. We would be in a better world if we had more of her!
