About me...
Hi! My name is Dee and like you, I love animals. I became a Registered Veterinary Technician (R.V.T) because of my passion for helping animals. As a result, I have been fortunate to have worked in the veterinary field since 2004. After helping people and their beloved pets for so many years in the clinical setting, I was searching for another way to keep doing what I love. So At Home Pet Care Services was born to help people take care of their pet's needs in the comfort of their own home.
​
My experience has offered me the opportunity to work with many different species including dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, birds, pocket pets and reptiles. I love and adore all animals but horses have always been my biggest passion, as I have been riding since 6 years of age and have worked with horses most of my life. I am currently blessed to have a beautiful horse named Topper and have competed in 3 day eventing and hunter/jumpers and enjoy trail riding and horse camping. In addition to my R.V.T license, my enthusiasm for helping horses and furthering my education, led me to a certification course in Equine Cranio-Sacral in 2012. Cranio-sacral is a non-invasive, non-manipulative technique of energy work that helps restore balance to the horse's body so they can achieve optimal health and perform at their best. I am also currently in training as an animal communicator in hopes to someday be available to help people and their animals to better understand one another so they may live together in harmony and love.
​
In today's world, we are all searching for what brings meaning into our lives and finding purpose in what we do. For me, it is serving my community and helping animals and the people that love them, in a stress-free, friendly and loving environment. I look forward to meeting you and your furry companions!
