Reliable and Experienced Caretaker

Pet care experience

Vet assistant, dog handler and trainers assistant. All around animal lover who has plenty of experience with dogs, cats, small animals and farm animals. Animals have been my life since I was little, growing up on a small farm in Massachusetts then later getting involved in the animal medicine, boarding, training and animal therapy field. It doesn't matter if they are big, small, furry, hairless, old, blind, 3 legged or slobbery I love them all. I have my own dog who is extremely friendly and is an amputee fighting cancer, I know how important my dog is to me in my life so I will take care of your animals as if they were my own. Hope to see you and your furry friends soon !

Chris is not only a reliable and trusted friend to my animals but experienced with all types of dog and their behavior. His kind nature and calm approach with animals makes him a natural!

It is my pleasure to recommend Christopher Muri for employment with your organization. I have known Chris personally and professionally during which time he has volunteered at Amber's Angels Rescue and has worked as an assistant in my families veterinary hospital. I have been consistently impressed with Chris's attitude and productivity during the time I have known him. Chris is very bright and quite motivated. I am confident that he will devote himself to a position with your organization with a high degree of diligence. He is a quick learner and has shown the ability to digest a lot of information. Chris has helped with nearly all aspects of the rescue; he has done office work, groomed pets, cleaned kennels, walked dogs, and affectionately engaged pets in quiet and play time. The directors of the rescue and the hospital administrators have been very impressed with Chris's kind and loving nature towards animals, other volunteers and staff members. He works tirelessly from the time he arrives to the time he leaves. He quickly has become the favorite volunteer of all of the "old timers", who are a very difficult group to impress. To conclude, I would highly recommend Chris Muir for any job positions and as well as any program. Please feel free to call me at (914)-980-9256. Sincerely, Amber

Chris has taken care of my animals many times. He has his own dog, who he would do ANYTHING for. He is a true animal lover, and would take care of someone else's dog as his own in a heartbeat. He has worked in the animal field before. He was an assistant at a veterinary clinic so he does have some medical experience as well. He's one of the first people I call if I am in need of help with one of my dogs or cat.
