Highlights
Pet care experience
I'll care for any animal
I grew up with dogs as family pets (German short-haired pointer and Cocker Spaniel). For the past 10 years on the home front, me and my fiance have 3 cats of our own. For 7 years, I had a savannah monitor as a pet. Even though he had to be euthanized due to a neck injury last year, ever vet i went to said he was the healthiest lizard they'd seen in a while (no risk of metabolic bone disease, fatty liver diseases, etc.). Work experience wise, I've been in the zoo field for near 15 years. Most of that has been education, but I have personally cared (in some to many parts) of the following animals; lizards, fish, cats, dogs, giraffes, zebras, ostriches, invertebrates, antelope, hawks, eagles, vultures, parrots. My avian experience has been at a raptor rehabilitation center, so I'm used to medicating animals.

Safety, trust & environment
My 3 cats are indoor only (with patio access). I am able to trim their claws, furminate them, medicate at times (oral syringe or pill depending), and give them plenty of pets and scratches while im trying to rest. All are trained to sit on command, some know "up" (like a meerkat), and I'm currently working on inside (call in from patio).
