Maddy Hardin

I’m a dedicated team player with a positive attitude toward pets, co-workers, and customers. I truly enjoy working with animals and I humanely and gently handle them at all times, using my ability to read animal behavior to support comfort and safety.

In my recent role as a Dog Bather at PetSmart, I cleaned and freshened pet hair through washing, shampooing, and conditioning, while maintaining overall pet hygiene by clipping nails, brushing teeth, and cleaning ears. I also kept workstations sanitized and ensured I could stand for extended periods and lift animals over 50 pounds.

I’ve also built strong kennel and shelter experience as a Kennel Technician at PAWS Animal Shelter, where I cleaned kennels, administered medication, and provided hands-on animal handling through walking and play. Across other roles including Fetch and PetSuites of America, I’ve strengthened my skills in safety, sanitation, feeding, medication delivery as directed, and teamwork.
