What I'm looking for

I seek roles focused on clinical animal care or customer service within supportive teams that value client communication, and opportunities for continued training.

I am a dedicated veterinary assistant and pet groomer with hands-on experience in clinical support, surgery assistance, hospitalisation care, and professional grooming for cats and dogs.

I have managed client bookings, maintained medical records, handled stock and retail sales, and provided front-desk reception and waitstaff duties in fast-paced environments. Not only in clinics but also as a receptionist in a resort.

My background includes formal veterinary nursing and grooming qualifications, sports instructor certifications.

I bring bilingual communication (English and Spanish), reliability, strong teamwork, and a client-focused attitude to roles where animal welfare and excellent customer service are priorities.
