Article Title: Jobs With Pets
Author: Pertic Brendon
Pet jobs can encompass many things the least of which is a job
held at a pet store. There can be a variety of pet jobs to
choose from, like working at a zoo, or animal shelter, or
perhaps even a pet store. You could always find pet jobs around
your neighborhood as well. After all walking the neighborhood
dogs can be considered as a pet job, right? What do I mean by
pet jobs then? Basically I'm talking about jobs that entail your
handling or coming into contact with animals of all shapes and
sizes.
This can cover many things as you must be aware, but what would
you be expected to do on any of these pet jobs. If you were
working in a pet store there a few jobs that you would
definitely have to do and these would encompass a large number
of responsibilities. From feeding all the animals first thing in
the morning, and in most cases last thing before you leave as
well, to cleaning out their various cages and hutches etc. You
would be required to help customers who come into the shop, and
be able to direct them knowledgably through the store.
If they ask you a question about the various animals and
paraphernalia that they can find in store you should know about
it. And if they have questions regarding the requirements of
their pets you should be able to answer those as well. It's not
required that you can do all of this from the beginning but it
does help. And if you don't know the answer to any of the
questions you should be able to admit it and go find someone who
does know the answers and get them to help the customer.
The same applies if you're working at a zoo, but without the
whole customer part. You will need to be knowledgeable about the
animals you're going to be working with, but if not don't worry
as these particular pet jobs will almost always come with some
form of on the job training so that you don't walk into the
lions' cage in the middle of feeding time by accident.
Pet jobs at animal shelters are really quite different,
although the basic cleaning, feeding and caring for of the
animals and birds still remains. But unlike with a zoo, here you
don't need to be worried of walking in on the lions. Pet jobs at
animal shelters may also be more emotionally heart rending as so
you will come across so many distressed birds and animals who
need your help.
If you love animals though there's no better job that you could
take than to work with them. If you feel the calling to nurture
and be with animals in your bones, then listen to it, not
everyone is equipped to do pet jobs.
