I worked at a Non-Profit Animal Shelter. I cared for cats and dogs by feeding, providing medications, and socializing them. I treated all the dogs and cats like they were my own pets, giving them affection and encouragement as well as documenting any behavior or health problems. I have experience with varying temperaments, health issues, ages, sizes, and breeds. I have received dog walking training and have been professionally petsitting and walking dogs for five years. I've even cared for exotic pets. Prior to working at the animal shelter, I volunteered many hours at a humane society. I also fostered many kittens in my home. I grew up with cats and dogs. My work and volunteer experience have given me the knowledge and skills to care for all types of animals.
