Meet our Vetsitters

Hi! My name is Jordyn, I am the owner and founder of Jordyn’s Vetsitting. 


I currently work in Charlotte at “2022 Charlotte’s Best” veterinary hospital, where many of my petsitting clients have found me. I have been at my current location for almost 3 years now and have been in the veterinary field for 7 years total.


 Within Vet Med, my passion lies in working with exotic pets and practicing fear free ideologies. I have always loved all animals, from the cute and fluffy to the wet and scaley, and nothing makes me happier than when I am able to gain a fearful animals trust.


When I’m not working at the hospital, I spend most of my free time Vetsitting and managing my business. I feel so lucky to work in a field that I love and am so passionate about. I consider myself even more fortunate to form such great relationships with not only the pets I care for, but with my clients as well. I have been petsitting in Charlotte for 7 years now and over the years, I have been invited to client weddings, thanksgiving, and been told on numerous occasions that I am “part of the family” which means so much to me, especially having my whole family 14 hours away. There is truly no job on this earth that I would rather be doing.

Hi! My name is Marisa.


I was born in New York but moved to the Charlotte area when I was young. When I am not working or at school I am doing agility with my dog Athena. Athena is an American Staffordshire Terrier and is my absolute heart dog. I also have a coonhound named Leo, an orange tabby named Mazikeen, and a hedgehog named nugget.


I am a pre-veterinary undergraduate student and currently a full time urgent care vet assistant. I am fear free certified have been in the veterinary field for 3 years, having only worked with fear free techniques from the very beginning! I started off as a receptionist and worked my way up to assistant/ (non registered) tech. I have an interest in small animal and exotic medicine and plan to make that my focus when in vet school.


I truly have a passion for providing positive experiences for all pets. I can’t wait to create positive memories with your furry (or non furry) loved ones! ❤

Hi! My name is Nickie and I'm so excited to meet your furry best friends! 


I graduated from Clemson University with a degree in Animal Veterinary Sciences and I have since  dedicated  most of my time to working with small, large and exotic animals. 


After getting my degree, I decided to move to Charlotte and work as a veterinary nurse. I've gained experience in general practice, urgent care, and am now  currently working in a specialty clinic. 


I'm both CPR and fear free certified, and am actively helping my colleagues achieve the same designation. Being fear free certified means a lot to me. Ultimately, my goal is to create a stress-free and safe experience for your pet during every visit.


 When I'm not at work, I'm usually spending time with my five cats, reading, or going on  adventures with my friends. Animals have always been my passion and I can't wait to care for yours!

Hello there! I'm Stephanie.


Though I've lived in various states,  North Carolina is currently what I've come to consider home, having spent most of my life here.


In 2016, my academic pursuits led me to UNCG where I graduated with a Bachelors degree in Biology. Further fueled by my passion for animals, I sought a degree in Veterinary Technology. As of now, I'm working as a Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) at an animal ophthalmology practice, having spent over 4 years in the field. Though, my passion for helping animals  persists throughout my entire life.


Within the Veterinary field, my interests lie heavily in surgical nursing, anesthesia, and caring for hospitalized patients. I've honed my skills in numerous facets of veterinary nursing, ranging from wound care and emergency medical intervention, to the administration of various medications. Among all my experiences, the most gratifying is earning the trust of a nervous animal and watching as they come out of their shell.


Outside of work, I savor moments with my companions - Otis, my dog, and Aslan, my cat. I enjoy lots of outdoor activities, especially  hiking and kayaking. On occasion, Otis even joins me for these adventures!


Understanding the profound bond we share with our pets, my aim is to ensure your pet's comfort. In my care, they're not just another patient - they're treated as a part of my own family.

Hello there! My name is Jessica.

 

I'm originally from New Mexico but have been residing in Charlotte, NC for the past two years. I'm currently enrolled as a student at Unity Environmental College.  Im working towards my life long goal of  becoming a veterinarian, specializing in emergency or exotic animals. My journey in the veterinary field began as a kennel technician, and I've since gained valuable experience as a veterinary assistant in both the intesnsive care and general practice settings.


My greatest joy comes from dedicating my life to providing compassionate care and unwavering devotion to every furry friend I encounter. I'm the proud owner of Mochi, a delightful black and white tuxedo cat who is my best friend. When the weather allows, we embark on exciting adventures together.


Caring for animals and forming special bonds with them is my true passion, and I'm eagerly looking forward to the opportunity to extend that care to your beloved pet.

Hello! I'm Mason!


 I am dedicated professional with a profound love for veterinary medicine and a strong desire to care for and assist animals. Originally from Johnson City, Tennessee, I obtained my Bachelor's degree in Fisheries & Wildlife Science along with a minor in Zoology from NC State University.


After graduation, I embarked on my journey in Charlotte, where I quickly immersed myself in the field as a veterinary technician specializing in emergency triage. It was during this time that my passion for providing exceptional care to animals and building meaningful connections with their owners flourished. This experience fueled my deep appreciation for the intricacies of veterinary medicine.


Currently, I work as an intensive care technician at a distinguished specialty hospital, collaborating closely with cardiologists and an internal medicine specialists. Through this role, I have gained invaluable expertise in specialty surgery and have acquired basic and advanced CPR certifications.


Outside of work, I enjoy the company of my beloved three-legged fur baby, Maple, experimenting with new culinary creations, and nurturing my thriving collection of house plants.


My unwavering dedication to the well-being of our animal companions drives me to consistently exceed expectations. I am genuinely thrilled to meet you and your pets, and will ensure they receive the highest standard of care, attention,  and compassion that they deserve.

Hi there, my name is Stephanie but I go by Stevie! 


I am North Carolina born and raised, originally from the small town of Wadesboro, NC. My educational journey began at UNC Charlotte, but life's twists led me to South Piedmont Community College, where I pursued a nursing degree. This decision was deeply rooted in my commitment to supporting and caring for my mother through her battle with breast cancer.

I spent several years working in human medicine in both emergency and hemodialysis units but eventually realized my true passion was animal nursing. In 2013 I switched gears and started working at one of the largest and most well-known pet healthcare providers in the country, where I worked for almost 10 years. I have since transitioned to a role at a dedicated local general practice. I've had the opportunity to work in emergency, general practice, and surgery settings. Outside of work, horseback riding is my ultimate pleasure, bringing me a profound sense of tranquility. The mere presence of animals has an incredibly soothing effect on me. My aspiration is to continuously evolve into the finest veterinary nurse I can possibly be.


I'm eagerly looking forward to the chance to care for your beloved fur-babies, showering them with the same boundless affection and compassion they graciously shower upon us every single day ❤️

Hi, I'm Tina!


I was born and raised in Seoul, South Korea. My lifelong passion for animal care led me to pursue a career working with them. So, at the age of 10, my family made the decision to relocate to the United States to support my educational journey towards becoming a Veterinarian. I've been a resident of Charlotte for approximately 15 years now, with a brief interlude in Asheville. Ultimately, I returned to Charlotte at the end of April.


My journey in the veterinary field began roughly 7 years ago when I started as kennel staff. Over time, I progressed to the role of an emergency overnight technician, which I held for 5 years. During my time in Asheville, I had the opportunity to work at a specialty clinic for about a year, which greatly expanded my expertise.


Upon my return to Charlotte, my former clinic offered me the position of overnight ICU manager, a role I've embraced wholeheartedly.


Throughout my career, I've accumulated extensive experience in caring for a diverse array of animals, each with unique special needs.


Outside of work, I thoroughly enjoy hiking and camping, often accompanied by my loyal companions, Coco and Nova. They are my cherished hiking companions, making every adventure all the more enjoyable. ❤️

Hello, I'm Renee!


I'm originally from the snowbelt of NW Pennsylvania, but have been a southern gal since 2006! My degree is in Environmental Science/Biology, but after several years working as a project manager at a local environmental testing lab I was drawn back to my passion of working with pets and their humans. I have been in the veterinary field since 2012, and have filled almost every role within the hospital setting, from reception to veterinary nurse and surgery assistant. Currently, I am working my dream job as a veterinary behavior assistant with an incredible team in Northwest Charlotte. 


I am proud to hold the status of a Fear-Free Elite certified veterinary professional. I have recently completed the IAABC Fear Free Trainer Certification Program, and previously acquired HABRI human-animal bond certification through NAVC.


When not at work, I enjoy spending precious time with family and being out in nature with my husband and our six-year-old lab, Gus. We also volunteer with an amazing local non-profit called Continuing the Mission (https://continuingthemission.org/), which provides North Carolina veterans with fully trained assistance dogs at no cost. 


I am thrilled to expand my veterinary niche and look forward to enriching the lives of our local furkids!

Hi everyone, my name is Talia!


I grew up here in Charlotte, NC. I recently returned to my home city after a brief excursion out west, working as a wrangler at a dude ranch in Montana. 


Before heading out west, I spent the last four years studying animal science with a concentration in veterinary bioscience at North Carolina State University. While working towards my degree, I continued to grow my passion for animal care. My veterinary career began as a kennel technician, solely caring for up to 25 boarders a day. After gaining valuable experience in this position, I transferred into a veterinary assistant position at a small animal general practice hospital. It was here that I developed my knowledge and skills in animal handling, injections, blood draws, nail trims, and much more. As an avid cat person, I have a special love for working with cat patients. 


During my sophomore year of school, my lack of pets led me to become a kitten foster for the local SPCA. I was able to help care for around 12 foster cats throughout college. Outside of work, my hobbies include riding horses, hiking, and creating art. Caring for animals brings me so much joy and I look forward to taking care of your furry companions! 

Hello, my name is  Meagan! 


My work in the veterinary field started around 4 years ago.  It all began when I attended the Vet Tech Institute in Pittsburgh, PA, where I proudly graduated in 2019. After that, I wasted no time diving into my career, working for a dedicated genaral practice. I quickly obtained my Maryland technician license after passing the boards exam. With time, I continued to learn and grow, and eventaully took on the role of Lead Veterinary Technician.


In 2022, I relocated to Alexandria, VA, where I joined another fantastic team. During my time there, I acquired my Virginia technician license and became CPR certified for dogs and cats. Now, I've set up shop in Charlotte, NC, and just recently secured my North Carolina technician license. I'm excited to bring my expertise to my new role as Lead Technician at a local animal hospital.


I have a particular fondness for feline companions, driven by personal experiences with my own feline friend who has overcome various medical challenges, including the once-deadly FIP. Looking ahead, my goal is to specialize in veterinary nursing for aquatic animals. I'm eager to meet your beloved fur babies and provide them with the top-notch care they deserve!

Hello! I'm Taylor.


 Originally I'm from Southern California, it was there that my lifelong passion for animals and the veterinary field began. When I was just four years old, I used to tell everyone that when I grew up I wanted to become a "vetterian". I practiced my "doctoring" skills on my various stuffed animals, including a cherished stuffed black lab that I still keep to this day.


 While working on my college education, I began working as a pet sitter for friends and family . After earning my Bachelor's degree in Science, I relocated to Indiana, where I worked in a local Animal Shelter. Over time, I promoted to Veterinary Assistant and eventually Head Adoption Counselor. It was during this transformative phase that my dedication to the Veterinary Industry deepened. I transitioned to an in-clinic role at a nearby veterinary clinic, where I gained valuable experinces and achieved my Fear Free Certification.


Today, I call Charlotte  my home. I am incredibly fortunate to work as a Virtual Veterinary Assistant for Modern Animal, which gives me the flexibility to work remotely, foster in-need pets, and spend more time with my senior dog, Champ, a Belgian Malinois/Boxer mix, and my nine-month-old kitten, Arwen.

I consider myself fortunate to have the medical experience and animal welfare background I do. I'm excited to meet and care for your beloved fur babies, treating them with the same love and care that I provide to my own cherished pets!

Hello! My name is Armiah.


 I've called Charlotte home for the past year and a half, having moved here from Atlanta in search of new beginnings. Animals have been my passion from a very young age, and I was fortunate to grow up surrounded by various pets. My offical journey into veterinary medicine started at the age of 19, pursuing my studies online for several years. My career began as a Veterinary Assistant in a general practice. Not long after, I found myself occasionally pet sitting for clients, which gradually evolved into a regular side job. This experience inspired me to establish my own pet sitting business in Atlanta, in addition to working with another small pet sitting company. The work was fulfilling, and I cherished the rewarding experiences it brought. Upon relocating to Charlotte, I ventured into emergency veterinary medicine, a field that has brought immense satisfaction and warmth to my heart. Despite its challenges, the joy of seeing pets leave the hospital healthier than when they arrived is unparalleled. I'm thrilled to continue pet sitting here and look forward to meeting Charlotte's adorable furry residents!


Outside of work, my life is revolves around my three adorable kitties, each adopted a year apart. They fill my days with cuddles and playful antics. Additionally, I enjoy music, hitting the gym, embracing nature, and catching movies. I'm eager to see what further adventures and opportunities this remarkable field holds for me. It has transformed my life in numerous ways, and I'm excited to extend my care to your beloved pets!

Hello everyone! My name is Ty'Dasia, but please, call me Ty for short.


I'm a 24-year-old Charlotte native with a huge passion for pets. Recently, I graduated from NC A&T with a Bachelor's in Animal Science. Go Aggies! I've taken my passion for animals into my career as a Veterinary Assistant at an Urgent Vet. This role is a stepping stone towards my ultimate dream of becoming a veterinarian, a journey I'm incredibly excited about.


Animals, of all sizes and species, are something I truly am passionate about. I take great joy in not just treating them but also in educating pet owners about proper animal care. When I'm not working, you might find me exploring the great outdoors with my pitbull, Menace, or traveling to various countries to explore new cultures.


This blend of professional ambition and personal adventure drives me every day. I'm thrilled to share this journey with you all and look forward to the connections and experiences I will get to share with your furry, feathered, or scaled family!

Hello there! I'm Mollie!


Originally I'm from Wilmington, NC. I  ventured to Charlotte for college and instantly fell in love with city. After graduating from UNCC in 2022 with my Bachelor's in Biology, I decided to stay. As it turns out, I'm a city girl at heart!


Since I was a kid I've always been very passionate about pets. Its  been a lifelong dream of mine to become a Veterinarian. My journey in the field began in 2016 in Wilmington, where I worked as a veterinary nurse in a locally owned primary care hospital. Working in primary care deepened my love for this profession, but I craved more excitement, which led me to emergency medicine. The dynamic and unpredictable nature of emergency care has been incredibly fulfilling, teaching me something new every day. My path has taken me from ER to ICU, and now to the cardiology department, where I continue to grow and learn immensely.


When I'm not working, you'll find me indulging in crafts, losing myself in a good book, or spending quality time with my cat, Bindi, who has a knack for lounging on my crafting supplies and joining me in my reading adventures. I make it a point to explore something new in Charlotte every weekend, with Front Porch Sundays and the city's vibrant murals being some of my favorite finds. Currently, I'm in the process of applying to veterinary school, eager to further my education and bring more beloved animals into my life.

I look forward to the opportunity to learn through your pets and to welcome more cherished animals into my world!

Hello! My name is Ashley.


I was raised in Charlotte, and I now reside just over the border in South Carolina. Ever since my childhood, animals of all varieties have held a special place in my heart. After finishing high school in 2020, my career path was crystal clear. I always knew I wanted to work with animals, and this passion led me to pursue my Veterinary Assistant Certification at Penn Foster University. It is incredibly rewarding to save the lives of animals and even more so when I get to shower them with affection and cuddles. Since entering the field, I have been trained only to use fear-free techniques, and I apply it every day. It is my personal goal to make sure your fur baby is as stress-free and comfortable as possible, whether in a hospital or pet-sitting setting. I am strongly committed to a career in the Veterinary Field. I cherish the personal connections formed with both the animals and their owners at my workplace. I cannot wait to extend these connections to you and your pets!


In my free time, I enjoy visits to my boyfriend's family farm, where I spend time with cows, chickens, alpacas, and horses, (with Ella being the featured in my above photo). My Saint Bernard mix, Daphne, is my constant companion, and we love taking long drives to Starbucks for pup cups. I dream of one day expanding my animal family and owning a small farm of my own!

Hello, my name is Ja'Nelle! 


My husband Kenny and I recently  moved to Charlotte from Long Island, NY. We share our home with three cats: Shadow, Marceline, and Scarlet. Previously, we always had a dog—our dog Frankie is actually how my husband and I met. I've worked in the veterinary field for over 6 years and have been passionate about saving animals since I was a young girl.


My start in the veterinary filed began as a kennel assistant and I eventually worked my way up to a veterinary assistant. While working full-time, I earned my veterinary assistant certificate online from San Juan College. After a significant mentor left to manage a local animal shelter, I switched to a private practice to maintain my connections with the shelter.


Moving from Long Island to Charlotte was daunting, but Charlotte has been welcoming. I started at an Urgent Vet here, where I was met by supportive coworkers who taught me a lot about urgent care and fear free idealogies, a new concept for me that has been incredibly rewarding. I'm grateful for the skills I've learned here and the wonderful friends I've made in this short time.  


In my free time, I often rescue animals I encounter, like Scarlet, who was part of a litter I found in a supermarket parking lot. I'm proud to have helped many pets find their forever homes and I don't plan to stop as long as I can help.


When I'm not saving animals, I love singing—on stage, in the car, and hopefully soon- to your pets! My other hobbies include going to the gym, visiting the beach, hiking, and cooking. My friends and family see me as caring, relaxed, yet responsible, hardworking, humorous, and empathetic. 


I am so excited to meet more furry friends here in Charlotte and look forward to caring for your beloved pets. 

Hi there, I'm Skylar!


 I'm originally from Florida but I've just recently moved here to Charlotte and am happy to call it home now! I've been involved with animals all my life and have over seven years of experience working in the Veterinary field. My journey started with an education in Agriscience-Biotechnology and Vet Assisting at Frank H Peterson, where I began my career as an Animal Attendant. I then worked as a Veterinary Assistant for four years and most recently spent three years in a privately owned general practice as the lead Veterinary Assistant back in Florida. Additionally, I'm actively involved in community efforts like Trap-Neuter-Release programs, fostering, and rescue work. Plus, I'm Fear Free certified in Animal Handling and Grooming!


Outside of work, I love painting, gardening, and exploring the great outdoors with my two dogs, while my two cats prefer to spend their afternoons napping. I'm passionate about creating a safe and enjoyable environment for all fur babies and look forward to continuing to care for and nurture our beloved pets with all the love and dedication they deserve.

Hi everyone! My name is Nyquaisha, but feel free to call me Ny for short. 


I'm 24 years old and a proud resident of Charlotte, having relocated here in 2019 from the small country town of Rockingham, North Carolina. Although I thoroughly enjoy the city life with all its activities, deep down, I'm still very much a country girl at heart. I began my venture into the veterinary field two years ago, though I've always been involved with animals, whether through doggy daycare or pet sitting. My enduring love for animals of all sizes, breeds, shapes, and colors is driving me to pursue my lifelong dream of becoming a veterinarian.


This fall, I plan to attend A&T State University to earn my Bachelor's in Animal Science. There's just something about animals that I can't stay away from—their care and happiness are my top priorities because they need us as much as we need them. They are incredibly loving and possess the purest of souls. I own a two-year-old female pitbull who means the world to me and is as sweet as can be. When I'm not caring for her or working, you'll often find me at the skating rink enjoying a good old time or spending moments with my family. Besides that, I love listening to music and dancing around my room. I look forward to meeting your wonderful furry babies, caring for them, and keeping them happy.

Hello! I'm Cecilia, I've dedicated over a decade to veterinary medicine—a journey that's as rewarding as it is challenging. Currently, I'm studying Marine Biology with a pre-vet focus at the University of North Carolina Wilmington, on my way to achieving my dream of becoming a veterinarian.


My path in veterinary care began while volunteering at The Humane Society of Charlotte, where I helped care for animals recovering from surgery. This experience sparked my passion for animal welfare and led me to pursue formal education in the field. I earned my Associate's degree in Science from Gaston College and have since worked in various capacities, from Kennel Assistant to Veterinary Assistant, at both general practices and specialty/emergency hospitals. My roles have involved everything from assisting in surgeries and providing patient care to educating pet owners and managing emergencies.


I've also been involved in volunteer work that extends beyond traditional veterinary settings, including educating visitors at the North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher about marine life—a testament to my love for all creatures, furry or scaled.


In addition to my veterinary career, I have a profound interest in car events and building track cars. The excitement of engineering a dynamic, high-performance vehicle is exhilarating. Reading is another pastime that offers me a wonderful escape and a way to unwind.


Additionally, I fluently speak English and Spanish, with intermediate skills in Nahuatl. I'm eager to meet your beloved pets and provide them with the attentive care they deserve, using all the knowledge and compassion I've accumulated over my career. Looking forward to being a part of your pet's life and offering peace of mind while you're away.

Hello! My name is Makayla!


I'm originally from Florida but spent most of my childhood growing up in Boone, NC. About seven years ago, I made the move to Charlotte. I started out here as a nanny, sharing many wonderful days with fantastic families. However, my true passion has always been with animals, so I took a leap of faith and applied to an animal hospital—and that's how my journey in veterinary medicine began.


Initially, I worked as a kennel attendant at an animal hospital. Driven by my love for the field, I quickly advanced to become a veterinary technician. Over the past six years, I've acquired a profound amount of knowledge about animal health and behavior. This experience has equipped me to handle various situations that might arise while caring for pets, especially those with special needs.


I understand the importance of compassionate and knowledgeable care, especially for pets who might be in distress or require a little extra love and attention while their owners are away. Whether you have an extra clingy, scared, crazy, or an old incontinent pet—I’m here to provide the care they need.


Outside of work, I enjoy exploring craft beer venues, listening to live music, socializing with friends, and taking my dog to the whitewater center. A fun fact about me: When I was younger, I loved watching the show "Dogs 101" to learn as much as I could about every dog breed, and I really enjoyed being quizzed by my friends on this topic.


I'm looking forward to meeting you and your beloved pets.  I promise to care for them as if they were my own family and give them the loving and professional care they deserve!
