Pet Sitter in Virginia Beach, Virginia

Hi everybody! My name is Krystle and I do pet sitting part-time. I live in Virginia Beach currently, near Chimney Hill, but do not mind traveling to Norfolk, Chesapeake, etc. I can do overnight stays at your house, or just stop by for a visit a few times a day. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I can usually accommodate whatever it is your pet needs. I can do last minute pet sitting usually unless I happen to be out of town (which rarely happens!). I am comfortable giving medications, SQ fluids, measuring and giving insulin, and monitoring sick or post surgical animals. I am familiar with emergencies and know how to respond appropriately should one arise. A little about me: I have worked in veterinary medicine for the past 12 years as an assistant, and I currently work full-time as a stranding biologist with the Virginia Aquarium. Here I have gotten the privilege of working with four species of sea turtles, assisted with the rehab and release of several seals, and responded to live cetacean strandings. I am truly blessed in what I do. Animals have always been a bit part of my life, and I cannot imagine a career without them. My boyfriend and I currently (always subject to change haha) have 3 cats and 1 dog. The three cats are named Leonard (from Big Bang Theory), Pebbles, and Bam Bam. They are the best cats ever! The dogs name is River and he is our old man Golden Retriever who loves everyone and everything. I also used to ride horses, and used to jump and do cross country. I miss it terribly! I am comfortable around large animals and exotics too, should you need a sitter for them as well. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask, and I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Krystle
