I have worked with animals for the last 10 years and have a National Diploma in Animal Management & Welfare and also an NVQ Level 2 in Animal Care. During the course I worked hands on with a variety of animals as well as doing vast amounts of theory work, this gave me a very good in depth experience into all aspects of animal keeping. I have worked with small & large mammals such as dogs, cats, rodents and farm animals, to reptiles, amphibians, birds and aquatics. In my job roles at Pets at Home & Webbs Aquatic centre and other jobs, I have worked hands on with these animals from feeding, to grooming, to cleaning and medicating. I understand the importance of logging all checks when it comes to these tasks to ensure animal welfare is maintained at it's highest possible standards. Having worked hands on with animals for so long I understand that there is a risk involved, whether it be feeding to cleaning to medicating the animals, and this has also helped me develop patience when working with animals.I continue to study and gain qualifications in the Animal field as it is an area in which I want to develop a career.Working in Sales is a great way to keep my customer service skills sharp and use my own initiative. Working with contracts and large sums of money also keeps functional skills sharp.
Listed skills include Exotic Animals, Aquatics, Dogs, Pets, and 11 others.
