About Alessandra

Experience: 8 yrs

Hi! I'm currently pursuing my master's degree at Georgetown University and have over four years of professional experience as a veterinary nurse. During that time, I became certified in veterinary CPR and gained hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, including senior pets, animals with chronic medical conditions, and those requiring medication or extra support. I'm also trained in safely handling fearful or aggressive animals, so I'm comfortable working with pets that may need a little extra patience and understanding. As a pet owner of two Bernese Mountain Dog/Newfoundland mixes and two cats, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. I'll treat your pets like they're my own and provide reliable, compassionate care to give you peace of mind while you're away.

Alessandra was a fantastic caretaker to my two dogs while I was on vacation. She was able to clip their nails and informed me of potential health issues as she had experience as a vet technician.
