I am currently a teaching assistant at a school that specializes in special education. Due to remote learning, I have the opportunity to spend more time with animals. I have lived with multiple pets my whole life as well as had many jobs taking care of other family's cats and dogs. I am not dog first aid/ CPR certified however I am a lifeguard and therefore am certified in first aid and CPR which means I have a general knowledge of what to do in a medical emergency. Through my own experiences of being a pet owner, I have dealt with many animals with different personalities and ages. I am confident working with friendly animals as well as pets that may be shy or easily scared.
