Full Time Animal Caregiver
I worked for PetSmart for the last 7 years and for the last 5 years was a manager for the company. In my own personal experiences I have owned dogs, fish, hamsters, mice, rats, gerbils, chinchillas, and guinea pigs. I currently own a guinea pig and two dogs, one is a husky and the other is a bolognese. Unfortunately one of my dogs was recently diagnosed with having seizures, but having the information on how to care for an animal with specific needs is beneficial. With owning a husky I am experienced in light grooming which includes baths and brushing. Working for PetSmart gave me experience with all dog breeds, cats, small animals, fish, and reptiles. Due to having living animals in a pet store I am very comfortable with giving medications to any animals that become sick, including injections.
