My name is Jenn, I have 6 years of experience in veterinary medicine and am a licensed technician! I bring both medical expertise and a passion for animal care to every service I provide. With my medical training, I can provide trusted support like post-surgical monitoring, giving medications, and helping pets through their recovery. In addition, I provide routine services such as in-home sitting, boarding, walks, and transportation, giving pet owners peace of mind that their animals are cared for by a trained professional. My goal is to combine compassionate, hands-on care with technical skills to ensure each pet’s health, safety, and comfort at every stage. I am currently enrolled in the Applied Biological Sciences (Preveterinary Medicine) (BS), College of Integrative Sciences and Arts, with the intent of moving forward to veterinary medicine school in my next step of my career as well!
