Our Story
REFERENCES ARE ALSO LISTED BELOW.
I am Jessi Kangas. I moved to the Delano area in 1990. I was a practicing Veterinary Technician for over 17 years and worked with Dr. Janet Roshar at Lake Minnetonka Animal Hospital, Inc. before "retiring" from the trade in 2013, after Dr. Roshar sold her practice.
I have since found that I miss all of those fuzzy faces and thought how I would go about fixing that. I was encouraged to start a pet-sitting/pet care service. I love to help you help your pet!
