What I'm looking for

I am seeking part-time, full-time, freelance, any job at the moment. I'm open to experiencing new positions.

I am an experienced animal care professional with hands-on experience in grooming, kennel care, medication administration, and customer-facing retail and food-service roles. I attended college for Veterinary Technology and have worked in grooming salons, veterinary wellness centers, and retail environments where cleanliness, safety, and attention to detail were essential.

My roles have included bathing and drying dogs, nail clipping, ear cleaning, walking and feeding boarded animals, administering medications, maintaining sanitation, and communicating with pet owners about their animals' well-being. I combine dependable cash-handling and customer service skills from retail and restaurant positions with strong multitasking and time-management abilities.

I am dedicated, accountable, and motivated to provide compassionate animal care and strong client service. I work well in fast-paced, team-oriented settings and prioritize safety, cleanliness, and clear communication to ensure excellent outcomes for pets and their owners.
