About Lissa

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi! I'm a Licensed Veterinary Technician with over 15 years of experience in small animal practice, shelter medicine, and emergency care. I've worked with a wide range of animals - from cats and dogs to farm animals like goats, who I now care for full-time as a goat herder. I've also spent the past 10 years pet and house sitting, offering trusted, experienced care to families and their beloved animals. As a vegan, my respect and love for all animals runs deep. I approach every pet with patience, gentleness, and an understanding of their individual needs. Whether it's giving medications, sticking to routines, or just offering comfort and company, I bring a calm and attentive presence. Hire me, and I'll treat your animals like family - with truly compassionate, skilled care.
