Hamden, CT
$20/hr • 1 yrs exp
I like working with animals because I love being able to step in as a caregiver role, providing love and safety for pets when the primary care giver may not be available.
One thing you should know about me is that I'm dedicated to my work. I don't leave a job halfway through, and that's attributed to my ability to communicate.
