About Priya Ferreira
I trained and worked as a veterinary nurse, and I still think like one. Medication schedules, mobility problems and the slow decline that comes with age are familiar ground rather than something I would be nervous taking on. I give oral medication, eye and ear drops, and subcutaneous injections where the owner and their vet are happy for me to, and I log every dose with the time it was given.
What I offer in Columbus is boarding in my own home. I look after dogs and cats alike, which helps when you have both and would rather not split them between two sitters. I stick to dogs under 15 lb, because that is what my home and my handling suit. The availability shown on this profile is kept up to date, and I would rather turn a booking down than take one I cannot do properly. If your pet has a favorite bed, blanket or toy, send it. Something that smells of home shortens the settling-in period more than anything I can do.
A stay with me follows your pet's routine, not mine. Meals go down at the times you give me and with the food you send, walks happen at roughly the hours they are used to, and bedtime is where you tell me it should be. Expect regular photos and an honest note on how the day went — including the days that were a bit off, because those are the ones you most need to know about.
A meet-and-greet comes before every first booking, without exception. I want your vet's number, your emergency contact and a clear instruction about what you want done if I cannot reach you. Do ask me anything before you book. I would far rather answer ten questions now than have either of us find out we are mismatched later.
