Any excuse to be with animals

Pet care experience

I was actually admitted into Cal Poly as a first year pre-vet animal science student. I've taken a couple courses on basic animal care but I've also taken a course called Companion Animal science which is all about the care of common household pets. I was also briefly part of the guidedogs for the blind club and got hands on experience on how to train service animals.

Safety, trust & environment

This totally depends on the breed/size/temperment of the animal, also with cats if it's an indoor outdoor cat I would probably thoughroughly discuss this with a client to make sure I have all the details. In general I would probably try and walk the dog away from other people or dogs incase the animal has certain triggers or reactions. I would try and stay gentle and calm around the animal and give them personal space if needed. In terms of environment I wouldn't let a dog off leash if the space isn't enclosed and I would try my hardest to monitor what the dog/cat eats as of not to let them get sick.

My schedule is actually very flexible. I try to have most of my classes together so I don't have to be on and off campus which means I have significant periods of time open. If anything a couple days heads up to take care of an animal would give me enough time to plan.
