In high school/early college, I volunteered at the local animal shelter in my town. As a volunteer, I fed the animals, cleaned the kennels, brushed the cats/dogs, walked the dogs and cleaned the kitty litter. I have since taken care of neighbors’ pets and watched my parents’ Labrador and husky/lab when they’ve been on vacation. I enjoy taking care of all animals and while I’ve mostly taken care of dogs recently I also love cats. I have assisted my parents’ with training our family dog and been responsible for making sure he’s fed and exercised when they are away. I enjoy playing fetch, teaching dogs new tricks and making sure that they get plenty of exercise. I’m very responsible and always make sure the dog’s needs are met.
