I have worked professionally in the animal field for about 4 years at a zoo and a nature center. I am currently enrolled in a Veterinary Technician Associate's degree program. I have training and experience in reading animal behavior, training animals, medicating animals, and caring for the daily needs of many animal species including dogs, cats, birds, lizards, snakes, turtles, fish, guinea pigs, ferrets, rabbits, and many more. I'm currently enrolled in a self-paced, online veterinary technician program, and work part-time as a vet clinic assistant. I work 5 hours three days a week, and then use the rest of my days to complete course work. I am able to start and stop my course work as I need meaning any pets in my care on my days off of work can have my full, undivided attention whenever they need it. I have a fenced-in yard that dogs love to run around in. I have a friendly, one-year-old female Goldendoodle, who is always looking to play and loves to share her toys. We also go for a walk every morning. I also have two birds and a rabbit, who I socialize with every day. However, they enjoy their alone time so they have their own room with a door that can be shut. I also have a cat, whose favorite time of the day is when I feed her.
